In the final installment of our epic series of programs on early Cold War era science fiction films , Jack “The Agnostic” Garcia – a noted archivist and film historian, examines the Post Nuclear War survivor cycle of movies. Jack provides in depth analysis on such themes as the Atomic Holocaust as a type of second Genesis , and the new pastoral that will bring humanity back into rhythm with God and nature. Films include the seminal -Five (1951) , the campy cult classic – The Day The World Ended (1956) , the groundbreaking – The World, The Flesh and The Devil (1959) , the optimistic time travel opus – World Without End (1956) and the little known Sex crazed and pessimistic – The Terror From The Year 5000 (1958).
