The apocalypse — much like low-rise jeans, Adam Brody, and many other staples of 2000s pop culture — is making a comeback. Movies about the end of the world were a major box office staple of the Y2K decade; but while that era’s biggest hits, like 2012, I Am Legend and The Day After Tomorrow offered sweeping, action-packed visions of Earth in the end times, the most recent crop of post-apocalyptic dramas, like The Last of Us and the 28 Years Later franchise, use the collapse of society as a jumping-off point to tell intimate, small-scale stories about human emotion.
