Time for a little robot chauvinism!

I don't think Zardoz is even all that weird when compared to other sci-fi movies from the same era. It very much felt part of the same cinematic tradition as THX-1138, Logan's Run, Barbarella, etc. It's arguably stranger than those other films but not that much stranger.

I think it's that there's less dialogue and feels a tad more serious than Logan's Run and Barbarella, even though the ideas are just as absurd. Barbarella is a comedy first, whereas Zardoz feels closer to Lynch's Dune.
