Yeah, Ellison is, I think, my favorite SF author. I'd like to see "Repent,
Harlequin, Said the Tick Tock Man" but it would be almost impossible to
screen properly.

"A Boy and His Dog" was a great short story, and a very decent movie, but
it's too bad the two didn't have much to do with each other. That extreme
makeup was just ridiculous- added nothing to the movie.
