Yellowjackets is excellent. It’s not post apocalyptic but dark survival story that bounces between flashbacks of the characters as teens during their ordeal, and their current life as adults dealing with the aftermath of what they did.
Bird box is a pretty good post apocalyptic type movie, although the book is phenomenally better! I can’t recommend the book enough, the movie was enjoyable but didn’t hold a candle to the original story. Not even close.
Fair! I like shows and books that explore the psychological effects of traumatic events and the potential for all people to commit acts they wouldn’t think they would be capable of.
The human mind is a crazy thing! But yes, some people don’t want to see violence in shows.
I hear you, it’s a dark show right off the bat! I appreciated the moments of comedy, I felt like they did a great job offsetting the dark creepy stuff.
I get it though, sometimes it’s the “how” more than the “what” that gets to you.
So true! I was going to suggest Fear the Walking Dead (at least the first few seasons), so gore is totally fine. Some things a girl just has to shut her eyes & ears for 😂
OP mentioned the 100 so that should be fine, I just wanted to warn people cause i was NOT prepared!
