Movies:
I have a taste for movie plots that feature a community eroding people's senses of individuality- or even taking them by force. Some people have dreams about falling or fighting, mine usually involve the expropriation of my individuality or even the destruction of my body by familiar forces. I know the community isn't necessarily the enemy, but I do have a subconscious fear of what the community could do to me. To name a few movies that stir my soul in uncomfortable ways: The Thing. Invasion of the Body Snatchers. Ants. Creature. (With that legend of the silver screen Klaus Kinski.) Society. Body Snatchers. But you can see a trend here. There is another side of that community takeover spectrum I find so horrifying that manifests itself in the rugged individualism of post-apocalyptic themes. 2020 Texas Gladiators. Waterworld. Red Dawn. The Omega Man. The Postman. Mad Max.And there are plenty more that follow this pattern. If you know any that I haven't seen, whether it deals with the horror of one's consumption by a community, or the glory of one's transcension of the community, let me know.
