Another British film that used sci-fi to explore the collapse of civilization 
(as might have happened in a nuclear war), was Day of the Triffids, a film that 
is ripe for a remake. 


But something that I hope is much better than the Tom Cruise War of the Worlds.

Hi-
  "Warday" is a good read.  More political and apocalyptical than sci-fi.  2 
writers go cross-country in the aftermath of the event, gathering info and 
stories from the survivors.  California becomes its own country (almost).  Kind 
of like now, but more so. 
Seek out a used copy.
