I initially made a list of about 30 and whittled it down to the 10 I would consider my favourites.

Surely The Terminator is pre-apocalypse?

Although after Terminator Genisys who knows.

It's alright. A poor man's 1984 with some Matrix shoved in for good measure to appease 'da yoof'.

I can see my list will be vastly different to everyone else's.

It was designed as a dystopian future sci-fi thriller/horror but, as with many films set in the future such as 2001: A Space Odyssey, Back to the Future and Blade Runner, natural progression has overtaken fictional events making the future the past! Therefore, I am going by the author's intention.

Haha, yeah can't say I've ever heard of many people that have seen it, but I certainly enjoyed it and it's been a family favorite ever since it came out

No change there then!

A lot of the lists so far have been surprising though in terms of the sheer breadth of what can be considered a post-apocalyptic / dystopian film. I may have to wait until a few more lists have been posted before compiling mine

Any list this fits in, it would instantly end up at number 1 for me.

It was probably about number 12 on my list and I really struggled to delete it. It was in my top 20 and top 15, but I was determined to reduce the list to 10 as per the thread title.
