Movies and SHTF?

[Glock22c]

So I was thinking about this and decided to get my fellow INGOers opinion on this as well.
What I am looking for is intertaining movies that will also train/ perk intrest in prepping. This list of movies can be used to help "urge" and inspire family members into the idea of prepping/ training for any type of SHTF situation. Here is the list I have so far:
Deffiance
Red Dawn
The Day After Tomorrow
Book of Eli
"V" for Vendetta
The Patriot
I Am Legend
(Not going to List any other ZOMBIE movies, just to many)
off the top of my head thats all I can come up with. Lets see How many more we can compile

+100000 (and the book KILLS the movie)

Mad Max Trilogy
Children of Men
Miracle Mile (1988) often overlooked but excellent
The Day After (Robards)
The Postman (Costner)
The Edge (Hopkins/Baldwin)
Doomsday
Grapes of Wrath
Papillion (McQueen/Hoffman)

I agree with Finnegan" the road" should be at the top of the list.

I still haven't seen the movie for "The Road", but DAMN! that was a good book.

TV Series...

Jericho
Dark Angel

 

[cobber]

The Day of the Triffids (far better book than movie, although BBC made a TV series not sure about)

The Killing Fields
The Time Machine
On the Beach (depressing and hopeless)(would substitute this for The Day After)
Defiance

I would have to throw in a few books:
The Moon is a Harsh Mistress
The Day After Tomorrow
A Canticle for Leibowitz

 

[thoroughbred]

Cast Away is a great survival movie, and recently for a shtf sutuation(alien invasion) I thought Battle LA was pretty cool!

 

[ghunter]

For comic relief, throw in The Omega Man. It's a great movie as long as you don't take it seriously.
