See this doomsday film series: "Cinemapocalypse" @ the Brattle
Has anyone been paying attention to the rapid approach of
the end of the world on December 21, as per the Mayan calendar? The Brattle
has, and they're celebrating the impending event with Cinemapocalypse, which
screens what they claim to be three of the best doomsday movies ever. It starts with a film we're not sure qualifies, Roland Emmerich's 2012 (2009; 8:30 pm), followed the next day
by one we definitely agree belongs on the list, Terry Gilliam's 12 Monkeys (1995; 4:30, 7, 9:45 pm). And
the third? Check the website and vote for your favorite, and whatever you
choose is probably better than 2012.
