If you loved The Quiet Earth, try The Day After
A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.
What they share
Theysit in Drama / Science Fiction territory. If that's the register that drew you to The Quiet Earth, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What The Day After is
Apocalypse Now meets Kansas phone book. In 1983, a Kansas town dodges drills and weddings until the sky goes dark. The day after the bombs fall, the town’s doctor, bride-to-be, and grad student learn survival’s a part-time job.
