Hollywood between Paranoia & Sci-Fi
The Power of Myth
Extra-terrestrials, the end of the world, nuclear war, visions of doom, giant tsunamis, devastating meteorites, invaders of every sort: For over 50 years, the American movie industry has specialized in disaster films, in pre or post-apocalypse science fiction, in the visionary or futuristic genres in which political and biblical allusions collide.
