These Final Hours

These Final Hours (2014) is an Australian apocalyptic thriller you can watch online on iFILM. Twelve hours remain before the world ends: a firestorm from an asteroid strike is sweeping toward Perth, and no one is going to be spared.

James plans to meet the end the way he has lived, at the loudest party in the city, where drugs, drink and noise might blur out what is coming. On the way there he pulls a young girl named Rose away from two predators. She is searching for her father, and James, who has just walked out on his pregnant girlfriend, finds himself agreeing to get the child home. As Perth tears itself apart and violence floods the streets, a selfish man starts, almost against his will, to act like a decent one.

Director Zak Hilditch made a hard, unsentimental film about who we turn into when there is nothing left to lose. Watch for Sarah Snook, later the star of Succession, and a young Angourie Rice in supporting roles. Stream These Final Hours (2014) online on iFILM.
