It'...Hands down mine would have to be The Road. It's the most realistic of all the post-apoc movies/tv shows I have seen. I thought Monsters and 12 Monkeys were pretty good too, and so much of the post apocalypse stuff bleeds in with horror. Taking that into consideration, Dawn of the Dead (original and remake) is one of my favorites.<br /><br />I'll give an honorable mention to The Stand. More the book than the tv miniseries. Though Jamey Sheridan is perfection as Flagg. I hope with the upcoming remake, they will get someone as badass as Sheridan was in that series.Amandahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02118686188117039232noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4217427319662074458.post-26003746579431212302014-07-06T11:53:58.513-05:002014-07-06T11:53:58.513-05:00I'm not quite certain Snowpiercer is great as ...I'm not quite certain Snowpiercer is great as it wants to be, but it's definitely worth your time if you can see it.

I also love Escape from L.A. (much dumber than Escape From New York...and that's why I love it), The Road Warrior, and Children of Men. I'm sure there are a bunch more that I love. Post-Apocalyptic movies are one of my favorite genres, so I'm hoping for some good suggestions with everyone's posts!!!!Angela Hagerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05631279159508861830noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4217427319662074458.post-82245513722065342322014-07-05T19:56:25.395-05:002014-07-05T19:56:25.395-05:00Mad Max 2Mad Max 2Matt Sollenbergerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02088555561067804979noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4217427319662074458.post-68133069889871183002014-07-05T18:18:52.406-05:002014-07-05T18:18:52.406-05:00ZangZangBrad Lhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18426952757794850746noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4217427319662074458.post-72200229521042728642014-07-05T17:23:41.824-05:002014-07-05T17:23:41.824-05:00I love The Stand for all the things it gets right ...I love The Stand for all the things it gets right rather than the things (miscasting Flagg, made-for TV limitations, Molly Ringwald) it fails at. What works REALLY works.<br /><br />If I got to recast it for the upcoming (maybe) theatrical version, all I know is Kyle Chandler would play Stu, Jonah Hill would play Harold, and (although it'd mean making the character about ten years older or whatever) Sam Rockwell as Larry would be fucking PERFECT. I used to think Anne Hathaway would be fine as Frannie but I quickly found out there isn't a female alive (that I've come into contact with) that would accept that, so...who knows?AJ Mullerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06987730338809078456noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4217427319662074458.post-11562921928676035232014-07-05T16:08:21.757-05:002014-07-05T16:08:21.757-05:00According to the book, Blade Runner takes place af...According to the book, Blade Runner takes place after World War Three basically destroyed the world.
