480 Neo-Catastrophic / Post-Apocalyptic / Global-Disaster titles
Popular interdisciplinary subjects in the comprehensive title feed a lot of genres. Collecting and categorizing titles for a study on consequences of various global catastrophic scenarios (on which listed were built on) and decided to make the list available. Started to keep this unique film collection organized with categorization beneath (eg. pandemic, astro, AI, geologic, genetic, or anthropogenic ones - like dystopia, nuclear...)
Serials included.
