Here are some of the latest monster concepts to come out of the fevered minds busily creating the post-apocalyptic Australian adventure Wynter Dark. These are the nuked-out mutants known as Nomen. More »

The bleaker our reality gets, the more we'll need bright, sunny escapism in our entertainment. But even though things are already looking pretty darn hard-scrabble, and we're still looking at another few years of eco-disasters, zombie holocausts and blighted landscapes in pop culture. Just how long will we be seeing dark, miserable stories of people who descend into their own personal hells where morality is a forgotten luxury? A few more years, maybe. Blame the Hollywood development process. More »

Post-apocalyptic ice age flick Wynter Dark, about how a reversal of Earth's magnetic polarity destroys the climate, stole my heart when I discovered it would contain wars involving polar bears — and not the wussy Golden Compass kind.

The upcoming post-apocalyptic war movie Wynter Dark has released a few concept designs of New York city 800 years in the future, during our next ice age. Looks like Lady Liberty is still standing (as usual in post-apocalyptic movies), but everything else is frozen and desolate. It also appears that the citizens of NYC have constructed some sort of barrier, obviously to keep their enemies from across the pond out of their city. There are no more details other than that out there for the moment on this 20th Century Fox film, but click through for a look at a snow-tank of the future. More »
