Ralph Burton is a miner who is trapped for several days as a result of a cave-in. When he finally manages to dig himself out, he realizes that all of mankind seems to have been destroyed in a nuclear holocaust. He travels to New York City only to find it deserted. Making a life for himself there, he is flabbergasted to eventually find Sarah Crandall, who also managed to survive. Together, they form a close friendship until the arrival of Benson Thacker who has managed to pilot his small boat into the citys harbor. At this point the tensions rise between the three, particularly between Thacker, who is white and Burton, who is black.
"Millions Flee from Cities. End of the World!" From a Manhattan skyscraper, Ralph Burton () surveys the emptiness announced by that chilling newspaper headline. Nuclear doomsday has come. Ralph is sure he is the last person alive. Then a woman () appears and the two form a cautious friendship thats threatened when a third survivor () arrives. Unlike other post-apocalyptic thrillers, there are no external monsters to battle here. Instead, the monsters -- fear, intolerance, jealousy -- lurk inside the all-too-human human beings. And heightening the intensity of writer/director s suspenseful and unsettling movie are stunning vistas of an unpopulated New York: vast, empty and soulless.
