The Day After (TV 1983) A must see. It's not a funny movie, more disturbing than The Road.

Jeremiah Johnson is a classic! Check that one out. 1972 Robert Redford.

Before you watch endurance, read or listen to the book first, I think you will "feel" it more, and yes, I mean feel. You will feel the cold, starvation and their pain and you will understand their obstacles more. It is an amazingly true story.

Hi DEMCAD,you should check out the William Holden film The Earthling.A great film about living off the land and surviving in the Australian outback.

Defiance is one of my favorites.

I made it as far as 0:43 of your video last night then checked Netflix for the movie Alive. They didn't have it to stream, but they did have a documentary called Stranded, with the actual people, photos they took and news footage of their return. I stayed up til 1a.m. watching it! Poor guys.... I couldn't believe the reporter asked them right off the bat, "What did you eat???" *awkward* It's amazing what people can get through. Thanks for the list!

When I think survival movies I think horror movies. Wolf Creek, a great Aussie film, comes to mind.
