Thanks for the suggestion. Just reserved it from my local library. :-)

Damnation Alley has the giant scorpions in it

Six-String Samurai had some fallout vibes over it. I remember enjoying it quite a lot when I saw it a bunch of years ago.
It's about Buddy (I think his name was), a swordsman and guitarist, who is looking for Elvis and his kingdom after WWIII which happened in the 1950s.

I would recommend The Book of Eli and The Road.

just finished watching it. great movie. although am not the religious type, it is an inspiration :)

Well. I've now seen all the movies listed here except The Road (waiting for it from the library) and the following (because my library doesn't have them)...
Six-String Samurai
Damnation Alley
A Boy and His Dog
Tank Girl
20 Years After
...and I also watched "The Day After" (thought I'd mention it since it wasn't mentioned yet).
I just watched 28 Days Later and 28 Weeks Later this week. REALLY loved them. :-) Another movie worth mentioning, although its more of a "bleak future" concept, is The Running Man.

Movies that gave me the fallout vibe:
The Book of Eli
The Road
The day after (without the tomorrow)

As much as it pains me to say this, Mad Max: Beyond Thunderdome has the most overt inspirations to Fallout. You can see both the idea for Junktown in Fallout 1 and the beginning tribal village of Fallout 2 in the film. Plus, it's also the craziest and most out there of the three, a tone that would define Fallout.

But I don't really care for the movie, it's mediocre at best.

The best post apocalyptic movie for me was Threads nuclear war. Be warned though I found it rather shocking and the ending scene is both effective at bringing a message and being horrifying (I still hold it as one of the best final scenes of all the films i've seen). The movie is about a family which gets cought in a nuclear exchange between the west and USSR. It depicts them fighting for survival as every family member dies one by one. It's a great film but if you happen to have any nightmares from it (it's not scary, just really bleak and atmospheric) don't accuse me :)

As an added bonus you can see the whole thing here :)

[url=http://"about fallout "]"about fallout "[/url] propaganda short movie, Wilding Picture Productions 1955

Wasnt the game Stalker loosely based on a movie by the same name?

the quiet earth

Yes. And the classic film was based upon a short story. While the basic concept and the idea of the wishgranter is the same, beyond that the two are very different.

Yea. although I read that other elements besides the wishgranters were there too. Seems like an awesome movie to watch.
