'The Last Man on Earth' (L'Ultimo uomo della Terra) from 1964 with Vincent Price is more accurate to the book from what I've heard.

'The Hunger' was made into a movie starring Catherine Deneuve, David Bowie and Susan Sarandon. I don't know how much it follows the book but it's one of my favourite movies.

I love the genre. Unfortunately I haven't found too much of it in literature. 'Oryx and Crake' was okay but not my cup of tea entirely. I recommend the following. 'After the Flood' (Efter floden) by P.C. Jersild. Takes place somewhere in the Baltic sea (most likely on Swedish islands)...

The romantic interest of the protagonist in "A Farewell to Arms" by Hemingway. She was such a goose without a will of her own and the requests that she made were so shallow. Spoiler! Highlight to read: I was pleased when she died but I still couldn't stand the wallowing in sorrow by the...

I mostly read fiction that doesn't take place in the ordinary worlds and the genre that interest me the most is dystopias of different kinds, for example dystopias about authoritarian states that leave no room for the individual and dystopias where civilization has fallen to great disasters or...
