Apocalyptic and dystopian films are and probably will always be a popular trend in Hollywood. With Matt Reeve’s dark and gritty The Batman sweeping the world into a moody appreciation for the newest version of the Caped Crusader, moviegoers will always appreciate a well-made action film that highlights the issues that plague our society.
Back in the 2010s, we saw the rise of the teen drama series with an apocalyptic storyline. The genre peaked with the acclaimed series that highlighted our desires to revolt against oppression and persecution: The Hunger Games. Adapted from the book series of the same name, a government reminded its citizens to not revolt against the Capitol by forcing two children from each district to kill each other in front of the entire country.
