- Friend of the World is a 2020 American black-and-white dark comedy film written and directed by Brian Patrick Butler in his feature film debut, starring Nick Young and Alexandra Slade. With the tone of an absurdist stage play, it is structured like an episode of Black Mirror or The Twilight Zone and pulls from inspirations such as John Carpenter's The Thing and Chris Marker's La Jetée. The surreal experimental film takes place post-apocalypse after a devastating war. A young filmmaker emerges from the destruction in an old bunker and discovers a military general who claims they are the last two people alive. There has been debate about what genres define the film; it has been categorized as a psychedelic film, a surrealist film, and an end of the world film. Written as a dark comedy body horror film in 2016, the film was produced by Charybdis Pictures. Filming took place at Gray Area Multimedia in San Diego in May, 2017. As an independent film, Friend of the World premiered August 15, 2020 at the Oceanside International Film Festival and was released on Amazon Prime Video and Tubi by 2022. It was distributed by Troma Entertainment. The film is critically acclaimed with an 88% approval rating from 17 reviews on Rotten Tomatoes. It ranks on Bored Panda's list of 50 Best Horror Comedies That Will Have You Confused Whether To Laugh Or Scream. (en)

- It is interesting to see the qualities of the film that retain their original effect, and those that have acquired additional meaning after the immediate passing of such an eventful chapter in our history. (en)
- I’d like people to walk away from our film not with answers, but hopefully feeling a profound connection with the characters. (en)
