Global destruction in movies continues with ‘Black Crab’ on Netflix


Filmmakers never tire of depicting “the end of the world” and what comes after it.
Recent movies have shown the Earth destroyed by climate change, solar flares, aliens, robot rebellions and even the Moon. Those flicks include “The Colony,” “Finch,” “A Quiet Place Part 2,” “Mother/Android” and “Moonfall.”
And one such movie – comet apocalypse flick “Don’t Look Up” – has even been nominated for the Academy Award for Best Picture.
More death and destruction on a global scale is on the way.
Up next is “Black Crab” on Netflix on March 18. The Swedish action thriller is set in a post-apocalyptic world torn apart by war. The movie stars Noomi Rapace.
Other post-apocalyptic movies this year include Austrian film “Rubikon,” where the Earth is covered in a toxic fog.
Still to come in the next year or so are sequels and spin-offs from the franchises “Mad Max,” “A Quiet Place,” “Bird Box” and “Wyrmwood.”
