I saw The Road and It Comes At Night pretty quickly after each other. Both incredibly disturbing in how possible and real it all is. Any other films that portray the incoming environmental collapse and/or societal decay?

    Word, it's been over a decade since I last watched it, but I remember it having a big impact on me at that time. I appreciate your take and might try to rewatch soon with that in mind.

      I'll plug my Letterboxd review , which details why I didn't really vibe with it.

      Essentially, it dislikes fascism as a concept (wow controversial take) focusing mainly on red tape and bureaucracy. Especially irrelevant now, thanks to bumbling autocrats who dgaf if their i's are dotted.

        seems like it has that liberal taint from how hard Orwell's 1984 was pushed as an anticommunist piece
