Threads (1984), the UK counterpart, is memorable, very bleak, and also worth watching: https://archive.org/details/threads_202007 https://archive.org/details/threads_202007

- jon-wood 4y agoThreads is a film that haunts me to this day, despite only having seen it once, in about 1998. For reasons I don’t fully understand our science teacher in secondary school was talked into showing it as an end of term film to show a class of 15/16 year olds. She refused to watch it with us, for reasons that will be pretty obvious to anyone who’s seen it. There’s a very short list of films that I think are both absolute masterpieces and something I will never watch again, and Threads sits squarely at the top of that list.
