I don't know if Damnation Alley and A Boy And His Dog count?
We shall meet in the place where there is no darkness.

Why wouldn't they? 
If you want to view paradise . . . simply look around and view it!

I believe in the international communist conspiracy to sap and impurify all of our precious bodily fluids.

ZPG (1972)

That's the one I came here to mention. I had it on VHS years ago. It's a very slow-moving film (which actually adds to the bleakness . . . I wonder if it was intentional)? But just about anything with Oliver Reed is worth watching (multiple times).

A woeful mess of a movie with low production values, a weak script, dubious acting, and questionable direction, yet it still somehow manages to be entertaining.

You just summarized Van Damme's career.
