I’ve been wondering for some time when we’ll start to see apocalyptic movies that would compare to those of the 1970’s:

- Planet of the Apes
- Soylent Green
- Colossus: The Forbin Project
- Rollover

IMO, “Omega Man” (remade last year as “I am Legend”) presents an unqualified disaster but not an absolutely
complete apocalypse in the same way these others did.

Aw crap I hit Post instead of Preview, here are some more, not from the 1970’s:

- Doctor Strangelove
- Fail Safe

Slightly off topic

IMO, “Omega Man” (remade last year as “I am Legend”) presents an unqualified disaster but not an absolutely complete apocalypse in the same way these others did.

SciFi channel re-made the remake, it aired last weekend, it was called "I am Omega" with Mark Dacascos.

Is it asking to much to get an "original" disaster movie?

Colossus: The Forbin Project

Great movie and still gives me chills.
