Aliens and an Apocalyptic Earth

Two movies that are bringing the stoke.

District Nine.

The Road was written by Cormac McCarthy, the literary genius behind No Country for Old Men and Blood Meridian. If you haven’t had the chance to read any of McCarthy’s work I would suggest starting with The Road. It’s easier to consume than some of his other works, as McCarthy has a way with using words that most never knew existed. The Road is a work that once started can not be set down. It’s the story of father and son in a ruined world. The trailer portrays the story as an apocalyptic action plot, which it is not. I hope they stay true to the plot and feeling of the book in this movie adaptation. Nonetheless, I am excited to see this movie. Read the book before you watch the movie!
