We’ve seen these ominous clouds roll in before, bringing storms, earthquakes, tsunami’s, lava and more with them. Sometimes it’s aliens, virus-carrying monkeys or the undead behind such shenanigans, but the good stuff usually comes in the form of Mother Nature/our solar system and the all the hazardous goodies within it suffering a king size tantrum.
In fact, when it comes to apocalyptic fare as entertainment fodder, the list pretty much goes from A (as in ‘Armageddon’) to Z (…uh, ‘World War Z’?), and in most cases, the cream that rises to the top is the material that embraces NOT the avalanche of visual effects that horrifyingly capture the multitude of ways in which our planet gets mowed, but manages to tell some kind of story with a human element.
