It was following a conversation about the end of the world between two teenage girls that director Thom Eberhardt came up with the idea for a post-apocalyptic film. If Dawn of the Dead and Mad Max remain its major influences, Night of the Comet, produced in 1984, takes a much lighter tone with the young sisters' shopping trips and improvised radio sessions in the midst of chaos.
