This garbage sucks big time

I just finished watching this on TCM. I found this to be a terribly ineffectual film. The premise is good but what minor value the movie has is completely blown at the end when Alexander Knox shoots Viveca Lindfors for little or no reason other than her not buying into his perverted rationale about the boon of irradiated children. I will agree that it is certainly the strangest hammer movie I have ever seen. Beyond that the film is near total garbage. Don't hand me the cliched BS about this being a brilliant underappreciated classic blah blah blah. Either a film works or it doesn't, this doesn't. Compared to this Day of the Triffids with Howard Keel is a classic.
