List of terrorism films

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This is a list of terrorism-related films.

Non-fiction

[edit]

These films are about or based on actual events, they are either live-action and/or documentary.

United States

[edit]

Fiction

[edit]

These films are about fictional events. They are selected on the criteria based on either (1) the plots involve the use of actual or fictitious terror groups and events, or (2) the overall storyline incorporates the essence of a terror attack. (i.e. Goldfinger (1964) was not a terror attack on Fort Knox, but rather a means for financial gains. Thunderball (1965), although is also based on financial gains, the plot involved the use of ransom and terror to achieve this goal.)

Notes

[edit]
  1. ^ Fictional, but inspired by the LRA insurgency.
  2. ^ Fictional, but largely inspired by the Iranian Embassy siege of 1980.
