10 Post Apocalyptic Films You Need To See

The world ends not with a bang but with a leak at a chemical plant in New Guinea, which transforms the staff into bad actors in shoddy make-up who stumble around as though they’re auditioning for Dawn Of The Dead. Meanwhile, in what feels like a completely different movie, a hostage rescue team encounter a female journalist and her cameraman, who’ve just encountered more bad actors in even less convincing make-up.

It seems that an epidemic of bad acting is sweeping across New Guinea, so the rescue team, which is comprised mainly of hair-trigger psychos, decides to blow them all to pieces. Along the way, they also encounter badly dubbed supporting players and enough stock footage for three Ed Wood movies.

The film’s first cut reportedly contained so much unusable material that most of it was junked and re-shot, with documentary footage haphazardly edited into the narrative, which perhaps explains why the first thirty minutes feels like three films overlapping. Throw in some acting styles best described as “unsubtle”, and you’ve got an incoherent mess that deserves to seen by all lovers of ‘So Bad It’s Good’ cinema.
