Zachariah - Opening Desert Rock Sequence

[alstunes19]

I found the LP sound track in a record shop for a dollar in Wisconsin while on my first liberty in boot camp in 1971,I still have it !

[TumbrelJockey]

Sounds like a combination of Randy California  & the Who's 1967 Monterey Pop favorite " I Can See for Miles" .

[BJBlitzstein]

I have it on dvd/ I am so glad it has at least this many views.

[hoopalicious]

i love this movie!! you can find it at some kitchy video stores or look online. Hilarious!

[doimable]

I saw this movie back in the 70's also . A few years after having been to Woodstock. The only reason we went to see it was because of the bands and music. Then it turned into a cult " classic " . I loved it ! ! Does anyone know where I can buy a copy of this ?

I saw this as-kicking movie in 1971. How the fuck old does that make me.

I was named Zachariah after this movie and its title character. My mother was not so pleased when she finally saw the movie. I love it for that "so bad it's good" quality.

[Tonymacaluso]

I LOVE this movie...and this is perhaps the greatest western opening scene ever.

[fuckettibrucia]

@Tonymacaluso have you ever seen Once Upon A Time In The West by Sergio Leone? that was not only the greatest western opening scene ever, but maybe the greatest opening scene ever. Zachariah is a really cool movie though

[Georox4]

A Rock Western, don't get any better than this. Yeah I was there when it came out. Most awesome flickage of the day. Enjoy.

[teenonator]

And screenplay mostly by Firesign Theatre.....until somebody started messing around with it

[1967PONTIACGTO]

I've always loved this...elemental!

[Ocloudsunfold]

hey, what about the scene near the middle of the movie where what's his face leaves his bud and is riding across the desert for maybe 5 minutes to some REALLY INTENSE music?

that's my favorite :]

[alexj89]

hahah this movies crazy. in many ways it contains some of the worst acting imaginable. also the worst dancing. but it still awesome.

[dadiargento]

Best scene: Doug Kershaw singing "Don't you go to Appache Wells".Someone must post that.

[jipeess]

hi, just did..

[maxinerose790]

You wrote this a long time ago, so have you found this scene? It's about 7 minutes into Zachariah (3 of 10)...

[pekoe]

weed out man --this is rare!!!!!!!

[redstrat8]

I WAS IN THAT MOVIE.

[yorbles]

very cool,you must have been a roadie. we got to do all the wierd stuff

[elbuzz]

Best dialogue: (to a fast gun handler) "Where did ya learn to draw like that?" "I learned to draw at home in my spare time."

[jfw657]

Loved that flick. Used to see it at the "midnight movie" with all the other freaks.

What I would really love to see is the clip where Zach and Matthew & The Crackers made camp and Barry Melton does the song "All I Need" (a reefer, a woman & a bottle of wine).

Is there any way you could post that?

Thanks!

Joe Walsh playing "Laguna Salada"! How great is that? A cult classic.

[smneale]

A strange but fun movie from the early 70s. Kids, don't do drugs!
