The Apocolypse is a popular topic this year. Simon Pegg and Edgar Wright as writers take on the subject with the same abandon as Shaun of the Dead (2004), Hot Fuzz (2007), and Paul (2011). Simon and his usual sidekick Edgar Wright rejoin three other college friends in an attempt to better their last epic college pub crawl, which was to end at the aptly named pub, The World's End. As they begin their planned route they discover that all the pubs from 20 years ago look the same; the people have become unfriendly and something sinister seems afoot. Eventually Pegg and his friends discover that none of the people in the town are what they appear to be and the pub crawl becomes a dramatic race to save mankind.
