1968 cult classic. When Congress gives 15-year-olds the right to vote the youngsters promptly elect a rock-star president. But after the new president decrees mandatory retirement at 30 and LSD therapy at 35 Americans begin to suspect that democracy has hit a minor snag. Anarchy goes airborne in this insane often uproarious farce about vaporizing the generation gap. When a deadly gas kills everyone over 25 the world devolved into a chaotic and zany struggle for power. And as a band of peace-loving hippies goes cross-country seeking utopia only to find football fascists and demented dictators they soon discover that even the American dream has a touch of gas.
