Post your favorite post apocalypse movies

I really liked The Postman with Kevin Costner.

It was underrated, if you ask me. Guess there weren't enough explosions and car chases for the general public.

Gotta admit, I didn't mind waterworld either.

Ahh, yeah, I forgot about that one. I thought it had a pretty cool story too.

I think I liked Children of Men when I saw it, but I haven't seen it since it came out.

Lets keep religion out of this gentlemen.

I take great offense at this remark. . .

I'm not nor have I ever been a gentleman.


Oddly enough both of these films feature soulless ginger Julianne Moore.

I thought Eli had two redeeming qualities.

I am legend
hated the movie, loved the book. why can't hollywood do a story that follows the book??? seriously.

I also loved the book I Am Legend, and thought the movie sucked. There have been other movies also based on the book (The Omega Man, etc.), but they've all been pretty bad by comparison. The Will Smith film sucked mainly because the sick people (which were originally vampires) were roaring animated cartoons that move like Spiderman.

My favorite post-apocalyptic movies include:

The Princess Blade (a Japanese film, fight-choreographed by Donnie Yen);

Akira (original, of course);

Versus;

Pulse (a.k.a., Kairo, the Japanese original, not the American remake);

Vampire Hunter D: Bloodlust;

*see a pattern here? Japanese cinema is full of post-apocalyptic themes.*

Dawn of the Dead (only the original);

Night of the Living Dead (also the original);

Escape from New York (extremely dated now, but still good);

The Matrix (only the first film; they should have stopped there).
