not really by todays standards but has some good and cool moments
The aftermath. No CGI to show humanity basically fricked into the dark ages. Perry scary stuff
its reddit "horror". essentials redditkino
spot the redditor
reddit
nobody should watch any movies cause theyre all reddit specifically you though also quit posting here
Reddit? Really...
I saw this and it was a thing way before the Internet was public.
Fricking zoom zooms all over this place.
No. I got tricked into watching "LE HECKIN SCARIEST MOVIE EVER" and turned it off 3/4 way through. Fricking boring amateur sloppy shit mess
it is, but you do have to deal with the datedness of the times it was filmed, if you can get over that, you have nightmares
It's worth a watch, it's dated but it at least it portrays the futility of trying to survive after a nuke goes off quite well.
Posting in a Threads thread, checkem
Depends on how emotionally stunted and desensitized you are. I wasn't disturbed by the movie to much of a degree, but I loved it.
What is "scary" is the realization that when this happens, no matter when we're fricked because no technological advancements are going to matter, in fact people are less prepared now than ever before for something like this because all we know is being handed everything, we're not even almost prepared for this.
The first 2/3rds are good, the nuke scene is excellent despite being obviously low budget. The timeskip scenes are silly.
No, I watched it a few months ago and found it to be quite funny in a way. There's a lot of dark comedy in this movie that seems to go over most people's heads. Anyone who tells you
>THIS IS LE SCARIEST MOVIE EVER MADE BECAUSE IT'S SO REALISTIC
is probably a redditor. The movie exists in a heightened reality and the actual outcome is quite silly and unrealistic.
The entire movie is just waiting for the nuke scenes which are dull and cheap looking, following by Dr Who-tier after scenes which are funny and unrealistic in the extreme. The idea there'd still be cops and order in post-nuked Britain is proof of how delusional the bongs were about their place in the world and their chances after a nuclear exchange. There would be maybe 1000 people left alive on the British isles, and they'd all have radiation poisoning.
Ironically its actually britains place in the world that would mean relatively few nukes would be used on it, and most towns would only have to deal with fallout instead of actual explosions.
There are far fewer nukes around today and the ones that are still around have a much lower yield. Nuclear winter and le end of le world is loopy cold war science with frick all actual evidence to back to back it up, its all conjecture
Anon, Russians hold a two centuries old grudge against the English, they'd 100% make sure the entire island is covered with radioactive tsunamis. Two Poseidons would be enough.

The entire country would be obliterated, and the people in government at the time this film was made already knew it.
Thats in the 70s when nuclear stockpiles were at their highest, allowing for liberal use on meme targets like culture centres
also,

It's pretty great as I've always wanted to see England get nuked and this does the job
It's just very bleak, it takes the most pessimistic approach to a nuclear warfare type situation.
When you see how many strike packages the Russians had prepared for the UK, the most pessimistic approach is not even shown in this film. The realistic outcome would be an irradiated firestorm which cleansed the whole damn island, followed by nothing living there for a few hundred years.
Well then
I haven't watched this but wasn't the whole nuclear winter meme just something Carl Sagan made up?
No. If you kick up enough dust, soot, aerosols into the atmosphere, it'll block out the sun and reduce global temperatures. A full nuclear exchange would cause global climate shifts as bad as a major asteroid impact. The idea there wouldn't be a nuclear winter is the real meme.
Picture related was caused by a fricking forest fire. Now imagine the entire northern hemisphere burning.
I see nuclear-war-isn't-that-bad-you-cowards-it's-just-a-meme-anon showed up already.
"Terrifying" aside, I think it's well made and despite some dated effects, it holds up because it focuses on small, striking images like the melting milk bottles instead of big sweeping shots of destruction
it will just make you feel bad after you watch it
that's good
Are the people saying this movie is boring/reddit/bad just being contrarian autists? I can't imagine anyone not finding this movie haunting.
yes
>"terrifying"
dunno about that but it's essential grimcore. only contrarian homosexuals will disagree
>only contrarian homosexuals will disagree
That's this entire site
I saw this on youtube as a teen and it really affected me. Didn't help that my mom was a schizo prepper who legitimately believed the world was ending, so I thought I was watching a relatively accurate depiction of my future.
How come British post apocalypse movies tend to be a lot more depressing and realistic (Threads, Where the wind blows, Children of men, 28 days later, 1984) whilst American movies tend to be more action filled, hopeful and 'cinematic'? The road is of course the exception to this.
Its not just movie either, british documentaries about nuke test mention things you never hear before, like seeing tiny stars filling up the sky turning out to be blind burning birds falling to their death
because the british got fricked up with bombings in wwii and usa only got pearl harbor which didn't effect civilians
ugh so heckin spooky . im scarred for life from the morons at the end!
Dead Man's Letters is the essential post apoc kino
propaganda for the the type of low iq homosexuals that browse nu/tv/. nukes dont exist
I liked it, I thought that having the last ten minutes just being raw footage of modern children from Wales was a very brave artistic choice.
