These are my choices for the best survival movies and these are different from my choices for the best disaster movies. The categories have been separated due to the fact that sometimes survival doesn’t always involve a natural hazard but sometimes involves a man-made hazard.

Deliverance (1972): Burt Reynolds classic about survival in “banjo territory”.
2.)
Red Dawn (1984): Patrick Swayze and the Wolverines to the rescue!
