I'm sure everyone knows Zardoz, the classic film that was the pinnacle of Sean Connery and John Boorman's respective careers. But perhaps not everyone is aware that it is a dire parable against veganism.
In a dystopian future, Zed (Sean Connery with a mustache and pony tail) is a barbarian outlander who invades a stagnate community of effete vegans and eventually opens up a can of carnivorous whup-ass on them.
Why?
Because the Vortex (effete vegans) have been exploiting the outlanders, forcing them to supply 'heart-healthy' grains.

OK, I have to be completely honest, I've no idea what this movie is about beyond the fact that it is a low budget dystopia that has effete vegans and a virile Sean Connery sporting S&M boots and a ponytail.
