I had a senior moment. That's my story, and I'm sticking to it!
The Planet of the Apes and The Day After would probably make the top ten. I say probably because I might be having another senior moment.

You bring up an excellent point about 28 Days and Weeks Later. Not sure that they would qualify technically,
but they would still probably be in the top ten.
Some others which would be in the top 15 are, in no particular order:
These Final Hours
On The Beach
Night of the Comet
12 Monkeys
Take Shelter
Dr. Strangelove
Planet of the Apes

I thought On The Beach was a bit dull (preferred the book), but that last scene with the banner. Wow, chills.
shareIn no particular order:
Snowpiercer
The Road
Children of Men
Mad Max - any (this one is a bit of a cheat, but I can't choose one)
28 Days Later
Apocalypto's in there as well. Not technically "end of the world", but An end of A world.
I liked all of these except Snowpiercer.

Boo, sir! Boo!
Just kidding :P
I loved it. And Tilda Swinton is amazing in it.
But we can't all have the same tastes. The world would be a dull place :)
True. That's why they make chocolate and vanilla.
I hated it. Speaking of Swinton, to me it seemed like she was channeling Ms Hathaway from The Beverly Hillbillies.

Planet of the Apes
Mad Max: Fury Road
The Road Warrior
Invasion of the Body Snatchers (1978)
Dr. Strangelove
The day after tomorrow.
I am not sure if "Planet of the Apes " belongs to this category.
