Most horrifying fictional apocalypse.

[Shadow-Phoenix]

Do I dare say urotsukidoji? (Don't asked me more about it, it's really awful.) Eventhought I'm a guy (just that the females in that apocalypse suffer the worse fate unless there are monsters that swing the other way) but I'm sure as hell I never want to lived in that nightmare hell hole.

I'm actually really surprised someone else on here knows of that age old anime that I only managed to watch because it was on the Scifi channel all those years ago at 4 in the morning and I managed to watch 3 of them.

Spoiler

What really mind fucked me at the time of watching the first 3 movies was the two teenagers eventually knew something world ending/bad was going to happen but they went and did it anyway and well that brought about the end of the world in the weirdest way I've seen yet (who knew risking sex could bring about a god hell bent on wiping the 3 worlds clean).

OT: I'd probably go with the Terminator universe because first you have a self aware AI launch all nukes around the world completely sending the planet into a permanent chaos state and then there's the ongoing years of suffering from the fallout, the stress and pain followed by the ruthless and cunning emotionless machines spending every waking moment to hunt you down and wipe you out.

I've downloaded the book (and also a film) "the road".
literally it is end of the line apocalypse stuff.
nothing grows anymore, there are no fish in the water to eat, nobody trusts anyone and bands of cannibals roam the land.
I assume this is because of a nuclear war but I'm not sure yet. Either way there is no hope of a better future

100% agree. Cannibalism and a horrible environment with no food.

Great film btw.

If you both enjoyed them grim tales (i don't know if enjoy is the right word). Try the divide, that truly is harrowing and grim.

Well now, thanks to you i just spent at least 3 hours on that SCP wiki. I want to close the tabs, but i can't! They keep on coming, more and more. And some of the stuff in there is pretty spooky indeed. Tho some of it is quite funny as well. Very interesting.

But on topic: I guess I have to go with your version of the apocalypse. I mean, nothing worse comes to mind. Tho a nuclear one would be pretty bad, as well.

Honestly I think the first film is pretty much has a subtle/ hidden message to wear a condom, otherwise you're bring the whole apocalypse if you don't wear one!!!

Yeah that would be mine too because it's just bleak. No hope. I played I Am Alive and thought a lot of that was taken from The Road. You get such a "what's really the point, it never gets better" mood going.

The most horrifying apocalypse must be with a virus that causes everlasting terror via the chemicals in your brain. Ergo, you MUST be horrified to the greatest extent whether you like it or not.

It's not always about who creates the biggest spectacle.

The 2 movies Alien (if they exterminated humans on earth) and Planet Terror. Either of those would be relatively uncomfortable last moments.
