Peter Keough Boston Globe 10/09/2014
The shocks, and the repressed wickedness, as in all well-done horror films, build slowly, then reach a crescendo that is hard to bear and harder to shake off. Go to Full Review
Justin Chang Variety 07/21/2014
An often tedious but clammily atmospheric end-of-the-world thriller set in the wake of a nuclear holocaust. Go to Full Review

This is the story, understand, of a group of people taking shelter in a basement following a nuclear holocaust. It's pretty clear right from the start that all or most of them will die. Good times. Go to Full Review

2.5/4
No one will be anointing "Aftermath" a feel-good triumph anytime soon, but there are flashes of unanticipated sensitivity and disquieting inspiration that cannot be denied. Go to Full Review

David R Apr 11 I will not go quietly into the night. I like it they survived as long as they could and remember the Alamo See more 12/28/2020 I see that it isnt popular but it is very real and disturbing. One of the better truths on what would really happen if the used nukes. See more 01/31/2018 was not the best apocalyptic movie I have ever seen and the ending was not all that original. I would definitely have to say that Edward Furlong again saved the day by being in this movie. Why does he make everything he is in so much better? See more geoff a 03/08/2016 Dull dull dull... I couldn't even watch it to the end. See more 06/12/2015 There was absolutely nothing that I could care about, or even like, in this film. One of the most boring movies I have seen in a while. See more 03/08/2015 There is just no point whatsoever to this movie. The characters are bland and there is practically no character development. Also, since it is made clear quite early that all character are suffering from severe radiation poisoning and are not going to survive very long no matter what happens, one can hardly care whether anyone survives any given incident; and on the other hand, there is no discussion about the fact that they are all dying and what they should do in the situation - it is mentioned for a moment, and then forgotten. All in all, you end up watching a bunch of poorly developed and barely believable characters sit around doing nothing interesting for an hour and a half. See more Read all reviews
