TV & Film


Robert, Nat, & Cody experience a pair of "cozy catastrophes" this episode with THE DAY OF THE TRIFFIDS (1962) and THE EARTH DIES SCREAMING (1964).  Both films are a very English look at the apocalypse at the height of the Cold War and forerunners of the zombie apocalypse genre which would be created just a few years later with THE NIGHT OF THE LIVING DEAD.
