10 Terrifying Movie Apocalypses We Should All Embrace
10. Mass Flooding - Waterworld
Can you imagine if this actually happened? The polar ice caps melt, drowning almost the entire human population and leaving nothing but a disparate group of utter b*stards on jet skis who love a Marlboro Lite? Whizzing around on ridiculously well-made boats, drinking your own urine and gleefully stealing other peoples possessions just for the God-damn hell of it? It sounds fantastic in all honesty. As apocalyptic scenarios go, this ones right out of the top drawer. Kevin Costner plays our heroic protagonist, a mutant loner sailing the seven seas, looking all grumpy and talentless, and dismissively hating on all the humans he encounters in the film as much as all the humans in real life hated on his performance. Whether the earth could eventually end up as a massive fun-filled water park remains to be seen with scientists split on just how much sea levels will rise in the next fifty to one hundred years. Still, if mankind continues its climate catastrophes theres definitely a fair chance of getting to wear armbands and flippers all day every day for the rest of your wrinkly-skinned life.
