A pouporri of Thermonuclear war movies
Sep. 29th, 2018 08:00 pmSeveral years ago I saw mention of the nuclear apocalypse movie "Threads." I got a copy but didn't watch it until earlier this year. After watching it, I went online to read up on it, and suddenly found myself with several other thermonuclear apocalypse movies on my "to-watch" list. Now I finally am getting around to writing down some thoughts on each one.
In today's batch, a trio of films that take on the daunting task of trying to depict the destruction of thermonuclear warfare on cities and civilization. In chronological order:
The War Game (1965):

The Day After (1983).

Threads (1984).

Next time, some other nuclear holocaust films (and a book or two) that I watched or at least checked out that don't try to depict the destruction of nuclear war directly.
