If you've ever watched a apocalyptic movie and thought, "okay, what happens next?" then The Road is for you.

Based on the Cormac McCarthy book that everyone in the world has read except for me, director John Hillcoat plops you down in the middle of a miserable, horrible world and lets you scurry about for survival.  It's a real uplifting flick.

Here I am moments after seeing it - making jokes to keep myself from crying.
