The original On the Beach and The Day the Earth Stood Still are the best.

It was actually in there, but I only realized when I heard some faint mumbling and could the "klatuu barata nikto" in the katakana subs

There are some occidental movies worthy of mentioning; not necessarily about the destruction of the planet, but certainly the end of mankind: Day of the Triffids - 1962. The Andromeda Strain - 1971. Kronos - 1957. Star Trek 4, The Voyage Home - 1986. The Last Man on Earth - 1964. Rise of the Silver Surfer - 2007. Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea - 1961. The Stand - 1994. The War Game - 1965. Moonraker - 1979.

I remember thoroughly enjoying that movie at a matinee when it first came out. (Kronos scared the heck out of me as a young fellow.)

It's got to be "A Boy and His Dog" written by Harlan Ellison and brought to the screen by LQ Jones. Featuring a pre-Miama Vice Don Johnson.
Don't forget Planet of the Apes either. But not as good.

"Beneath the planet of the apes" where the world actually gets destroyed in the end. Its the second installment of the original movies series. I am not fan of the mediocre Tim Burton remake of the original one.
"Kairo" (Pulse) by japanese director Kiyoshi Kurosawa also has a kind of end of the world feeling to it. Great horror movie.

Quite frankly I have liked them all over time. And thanks to whoever mentioned the Planet of the Apes - I had thoroughly forgotten that that was one of the basic premises behind that.

I forgot about Invasion of the Body Snatchers (the original one), which was more of a "takeover the Earth" kind of movie, but which may fit in with some of those mentioned above.

Does anyone remember 'Quintet' (sp?) with Newman, back in the 70s or early 80's. Had to do with a global ice age.
