why is the plot in apocalypse series always that everyone is aginst everyone? that all people need to arm themselves because everyone wants to kill each other?
in real life scenarios of extreme situations, in almost every case humans would stick together and show altruistic behaviour, share everything because that is the only way to survive. but in fiction it is always the opposite(?).
why is it like that? what do you think?
Virtually all USian films are based on liberal USian values like rugged individualism and dog-eat-dog-ism. In general, the horror genre is very reactionary, and I think most apocalyptic films are contained in or lean heavily on that genre.
