Time Travelers in the year 2889

by Werner Poegel on Nov.18, 2009, under Time Travel Movies

In the Year 2889 (1967) is a made for television, apocalyptic, science fiction, movie about a futuristic nuclear war. The film is the remake of The Day the World Ended (1955). In the film, a nuclear war has wiped out almost all of Earth’s citizens. Strangely, it is set in the year 1977; not 2889. The movie follows a group of survivors threatened by a tribe of cannibalistic mutants.

The movie shares a name with the short story In the Year 2889 by Jules Verne.
