A great discussion of apocalyptic and catastrophic films, revealing their inherent criticism of Western capitalist ideology. Furious prose and angry theorizing makes this book a great read. I find Williams' readings and arguments wholly convincing, but do find his urge for us to be post-apocalyptic now before the catastrophe strikes to be slightly too utopian - but one may hope.
