Default World Gone Wild: A Survivor's Guide to Post-Apocalyptic Movies Hardcover

Just received this wonderful hardcover book on all thing post apocslyptic


Quote:
A loving ode to a universal genre of film. An entire subculture of end-of-the-world themes was spawned from films like The Road Warrior, Escape From New York, and The Terminator. While those films are still being emulated today, film makers all around the world continue to produce radically unique films with startling perspectives of humanity facing the end of all things. This book offers pointers and a frame of reference on how the characters behaved when their worlds were on the brink of desolation. It covers the genre's biggest blockbusters like The Hunger Games, I Am Legend, Oblivion and World War Z, while devoting equal time and attention to smaller, more obscure films that really deserve to be discovered. Containing over 800 movie reviews, 60 exclusive interviews with filmmakers and actors who've made films in the genre, and a vast sub-genre index, this is a chronicle of humanity's struggles through nuclear war, global natural disasters, and the zombie apocalypse in film.

I bought this gorgeous hardback book on Sharon Tate this week.

It's a stunning pictorial tribute.

Thanks Dave Boy. It is.

276 pages and not a mention of the scum that murdered her. It's full of beautiful photos of her from her life as a model and from films like The Fearless Vampire Killers.

A pretty reasonable vampire cinema book with lots of photos.
I'm a sucker for this kind of film reference book.
Shit cover though.
488 pages.

Just read the chapter on 2000-2015 in Jonathan Rigby's English Gothic book as i was looking for some inspiration.

An hour and a half's reading later i've decided he doesn't actually like much from this era as although many films are discussed he only recommends about five or six.

Having said that quite a few appeal to me.
