- Abstract
The article critiques foreign or independent eschatology films namely Jeff Nichols' "Take Shelter," Kelly Reichardt's "Meek's Cutoff," and Béla Tarr's "The Turin Horse." Topics discussed include depictions of the end of the world directly or allegorically, the economic and ecological nature of the apocalypse, and mythic and universal undertones. Also mentioned are readings of the films as warnings and speculation that they might be signaling the approach of the End Times.
