A tale of two 1970s trailers from the future

I never realized this before, but after watching the relatively obscure trailer for "A Boy and his Dog" (1975, directed by L.Q. Jones)...



... I was for some reason reminded of this relatively well-known trailer for "A Clockwork Orange" (1971, directed by Stanley Kubrick)...



Now, obviously the trailer for "A Clockwork Orange" trailer is much better, but I have to admire the sheer balls of whoever edited that trailer for "A Boy and His Dog" to so blatantly rip off the previous work. It is a great little movie, though, and I hope this act of artistic homage brought it some small bit of much-deserved attention.

By the way, Blood, the dog in the title (and the smartest, most admirable character in the entire movie) was played by the same dog who played Tiger on "The Brady Bunch." And he was voiced by Tim Mcintire, who delivered a unforgettable performance as legendary DJ Alan Freed in the (sadly not on DVD) rock 'n' roll movie, "American Hot Wax."
