They are thinking of The Word, The Flesh and The Devil.
The movie stars Belafonte, Inger Stevens and Mel Ferrer as three survivors of a nuclear holocaust and does feature startling scenes of an eerily empty new York City.
Actually films of nuclear Armageddon are plentiful and since it looks like The Rapture has been delayed this may be an opportunity to catch up on a few.
Fail Safe - when the US and the Soviet Union are brought to the brink of war.
On The Beach - nuclear holocaust survivors search for a safe place to live.
Testament - the effects of nuclear devastation on the residents of a small California town.
The Day After Tomorrow - frightening made for TV movie from the early eighties.

And of course I can't leave out one of the most famous post-apocalyptic film series of all time,
The Planet of the Apes.

I'd like ot point out that i am not an anonymous reader, i simply am Anonymous. It's my name
Testament was a good movie, very depressing and sad
I did not like the Day After at all, it was quite corny...like, when they are waiting to listen on the radio for the President, he gets on the radio and when he is done, the radio goes off the air...wouldn';t it just be on constantly with all sorts of news...that little scene made me say "Cheeese"
Question for Mr. Moviehouse...i am seeing a plethora of these second rate movies that try to get you with the promo, and they are all done the same, but when you watch them they are very poor actors with stupid scenes and acting...You can find many of them in those rent a videeo vending machines...I hate when I order a movie and it turns out to be one of those,,,do they have a name for them besides "B" movies?
