Any others to binge? |

The Road was kind of a shitty movie, but it has some good points.
Book of Eli probably more after the fact SHTF 28 Days was fun, I like zombie stuff Heat the SHTF small scale during the shootout. Great scene. I still like The Road Warrior again, post SHTF, but considering when made was great film. |

Right at your Door 2006 - about some dirty bombs that hit LA and the main guy is kinda Dbag trying to seal up his house etc.
After Armageddon - It was a discover/history channel special. I think it's great. Follows an EMT trying to survive a global pandemic. |

Off the top of my dome piece..
Light of My Life The Rover Z for Zachariah Into the Forest The Survivalist Right At Your Door (already posted) It's A Disaster It Comes At Night The Pianist (dude's a coward but worthy of this category) |

If you liked The Road check out The Day After for another really uplifting story.

How I Live Now
with Saoirse Ronan Bratty teen girl changes after surviving a terrorist nuclear bombing of London and the martial law aftermath. Starts slow but gets pretty bleak after the attack. I liked it. Children of Men |

That's why the main alpha male character had to head-canoe both his father-in-law and son even after they were incapacitated and on the verge of imminent death.

Also recommend "American Blackout" from the National Geographic channel. I found that one unsettling.

No Escape
2015 w/Owen Wilson and that other guy about him escaping from Vietnam? With his family Kinda unnerving edge-of-the-seater |

Quoted: Also recommend "American Blackout" from the National Geographic channel. I found that one unsettling. Another great docudrama. Like someone else mentioned, the original British one is great too. I love myself cringe shtf movies ... Guilty pleasure of mine To name a few: Goodbye World What Still Remains Refuge/The Mansion Blackout How I Live Now Jack's Apocalypse Into The Forest Light of My Life Ive found myself giving these a couple or so viewings even tho they aren't the best movies out there. |

Quoted: A valuable lesson to be leaned from that film: Ten minutes into the apocalypse, and Ray Milland's decent law-abiding suburbanite character is robbing people at gun point. View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes Quoted: Quoted: Panic in Year Zero. The whole movie is goos insight into the human animal. His talk with the wife when she spoiled the boy's shot was spot on. |

Her.
A bleak future where hipsters are in charge and people have sex with dead cats. Scarlett Johannsen is in it. She's hawt as hell and doesn't even appear on screen. |

Jericho TV series (2006-2008)
History Channel’s “After Armageddon” (2010) National Geographic’s “American Blackout” (2013) The Day After (1983) Panic in Year Zero (1962) Threads (1984) |

Quoted: Also recommend "American Blackout" from the National Geographic channel. I found that one unsettling. View Quote Premised on a computer hack shutdown of the electrical grid, and a ridiculously rapid recovery of sorts. A complete softball approach. Electricity is society, industry and medicine's insulin. Even with this softball, you would see major violence within the first 200 hours. I'd like my two hours watching this puff piece back. |
