HORROR MOVIE NIGHT- Post-apocolyptic and zombie collection
The popularity of post-apocolyptic and zombie movies is growing- so much that they have started to break free from the horror genre. Films like 'Blindness' and 'Children of Men' all have the post apocolyptic theme but are done in a more dramatic film style. This list pays tribute to the genre that started it all: HORROR!
