"Soylent Green" really gives you the creeps but it feels that is where we are headed!

12 Monkeys

Logan's Run
Matrix Series
(and of course)Apocalypse Now

I loved "A Boy and His Dog" - Ellison writes a good story... Jeff H, Marv E, Rapewta - you have good taste!!!

One of the best last lines in movies...
Well, I'd certainly say she had marvelous judgment, Albert, if not particularly good taste.

And "Dark Star" - a very early John Carpenter film - he described it as "Waiting for Godot in space". If you haven't seen it you should -
Bomb#20: In the beginning, there was darkness. And the darkness was without form, and void.
Boiler: What the hell is he talking about?
Bomb#20: And in addition to the darkness there was also me. And I moved upon the face of the darkness. And I saw that I was alone. Let there be light.

Cool, thanks guys. I have seen a boy and his dog and I thought it was a great flick. Lots of stuff here I'm adding to my Netflix though.

The Postman - the one with Kevin Costner
Zombieland

Dr Strangelove
Fail-Safe

"Knowing" is a recent one. Not saying it is good or bad.

Surprised "The Road" hasn't been mentioned yet. Its slow paced but surprisingly creepy and sad. Not an uplifting movie but given the subject material, fitting.

See post #7

OK, looks like they were referring to the book. Eitherway, the movie is good.

For me, Brazil just did not click. The intent of the thread is to list, not to criticize - but have never made it through. I must not have given it a fair shake.

More recent films:
Skyline (Cloverfield type monsters but without the Blair Witch Project hand held camera filming)
The Invasion (Body Snatchers-ish) Nicole Kidman.
Was Cloverfield mentioned? More of a near apocalypse but maybe just a monster movie.
I am Legend - alternate ending version

Also, The Mist is very good - near apocalypse - Steven King

Thanks for listing - Several I have not seen. Boy and His Dog sounds like required viewing.

Snake Plissken..... I thought he was dead?

RED DAWN- made me into the rabid commie hater I am today. (C-130 rolling down the strip...)

Best qoute of red dawn:

"How is the war going?"

"Not to good ,but we have one advantage going for us.....600 million screaming Chinaman."

"600 million? I thought there were 1 billion screamin chinaman."

"There were"

Watched the entire move and two months later my sister told me of his physical impairment. Doh.

Brazil was more of an instructional video than a form of entertainment. Makes more sense the 10th time around on heavy mind alterants, and/or memory.

Terminator 2/3. (but I welcome our alien overlords.)

Quite a bit of racing footage. Just watched it based on recommendations here.

Gregory Peck's girlfriend, the town drunk, would have worked for me - Ava Gardner.

Terminator Salvation is the only actual Terminator movie that takes place fully after the apocalypse.... and it is way better than T3.

Surrogates (2009) - Bruce Willis, Ving Rhames, James Cromwell - "Set in a futuristic world where humans live in isolation and interact through surrogate robots, a cop is forced to leave his home for the first time in years in order to investigate the murders of others' surrogates."
Surrogates (2009) - IMDb

I caught about 15 mins. of this on cable today. Not enough to know if it's truly any good, but it looked like the story might be interesting. There was a bit of either wire work (not a fan) or CGI with Willis as a robot chasing some guy and making some pretty unbelievable leaps and falls, but for sci-fi/apocalypse fans, it's probably worth checking out.

Watched it last night. Well directed for what it is, a date night sci-fi horror comedy. It's no On the Beach.

There is a 911 in it as well.

FWIW - The tall lady from the underground complex was one of Andy Worhol's entourage of beauties he surrounded himself with.

forgot about The Mist

one of the most haunting endings to any movie, ever. Worth enduring the rest of the movie.
