Into the garbage *spoilers*


These characters are portrayed as being so stupid that it's hard to care about their fate. Eli was an unnecessary character, unnecessary sex scene, unnecessary rape scene. Unnecessary movie. The description said "apocalyptic" but really it's just an unexplained, overglorified power outage. This isn't the worst movie I've ever seen by a longshot, but it's definitely on the list of stupid ones. Tells her sister not to get pregnant, but the rape baby is a miracle, travels deep into the forest to deliver it, burns the house down while it's raining because the roof collapsed. I think I need to watch The Road again.

It's supposed to a transition from patriarchy to matriarchy. The movie portrays our civilization and abusive and self-destructive. All because it's ruled by men. Solution offered is going back to 'Mother Nature'

Or...maybe it's just a bad movie.

Yeah, The Road definitely shits all over this movie.

I enjoyed watching it but it really didn't go anywhere and the ending made no sense.
