Distopian films. Your favorites?

[Living_Dead_Girl]

What is your ultimate favorite distopian film? We do not just have the hunger games. We have bade runner. They live. And movie adaptations off books (Like with blade runner as well as the hunger games) I put this in good movies to not limit us to B-Grade or otherwise.

I tend to prefer reading or watching distopian stories.

The first two Mad Max movies were great, then there's Rollerblade Warriors, Hell Comes To Frogtown, Damnation Alley, Phoenix The Warrior, Creepozoids, Crash and Burn, Hybrid, Robot Jox, and probably a dozen others I can't remember right now 

[JaseSF]

Some that come to mind: Children of Men, 1984, Blade Runner, Soylent Green, The Omega Man, Planet of the Apes (1968), Equilibrium, 12 Monkeys, Escape From New York, A Clockwork Orange, Brazil, The Handmaid's Tale, THX-1138, V For Vendetta

Logan's Run is pretty much a Dysptopian future disguised as utopian.

BRAZIL is my favorite. The movie adaptation of 1984 was very good also.

ZERO THEOREM is not out in the US until September, I think. I'll probably have to wait until DVD, though. METROPIA is on my to see list.

Okay for one. My favorite teacher once showed us Brazil in class one day and two. I though you guys meant "Metropolis" About female robots and I was like "They remade it?" Considering I have only ever seen the black and white silent version. I actually got exited xD But Metropia is now another DVD I want looking it up on google.

There's an anime film called metropolis it may be what you are thinking of, as for metropia the animation along weirded me out

my favorites were the '80s ripoffs of The Road Warrior

2020 Texas Gladiators, Endgame, Warriors of the Wasteland,Wheels of Fire, and others

Also enjoyed Turkey Shoot, a.k.a.  Escape 2000

I don't know if Cherry 2000 fits in here, but I'll mention it anyway. 

In South African terms, Doomsday, The Survivor and Survival Zone were pretty OK.

Collossus: The Forbin Project was quite interesting

[major jay]

I guess 2019: AFTER THE FALL OF NEW YORK and THE NEW BARBARIANS deserve a mention.
Here's one to look forward to.

Actually METROPOLIS (1927) should go on my favorite dystopian film list too.
