{{Short description|Film genre}}
The '''survival film''' is a [[film genre]] in which one or more characters make an effort at physical [[survival]].<ref name="sobchack12">{{Harvnb|Sobchack|1988|p=12}}</ref> The genre focuses on characters' life-or-death struggles, often set against perilous circumstances. Survival films explore the human will to live, individual motivations, and personal desires, prompting audiences to reflect on broader aspects of humanity and personal values. They balance realism and believability with slow-burning suspense to maintain a sense of urgency. While some survival films may have epic scopes and lengthy running times, their effectiveness lies in creating an atmosphere where every moment poses a passive threat to the protagonist's existence.<ref name="foreman" />

The genre often overlaps with other [[film genre]]s. It is a subgenre of the [[adventure film]], along with [[swashbuckler film]]s, [[war film]]s, and safari films.<ref name="sobchack12" /> Survival films are darker than most other adventure films and usually focus their storyline on a single character, usually the [[protagonist]]. The films tend to be "located primarily in a contemporary context", so film audiences are familiar with the setting, and the characters' activities are less romanticized.<ref name="sobchack14" />

In a 1988 book, Thomas Sobchack compared the survival film to [[romance film]]: "They both emphasize the heroic triumph over obstacles which threaten social order and the reaffirmation of predominant social values such as fair play and respect for merit and cooperation."<ref name="sobchack14" /> The author said survival films "identify and isolate a microcosm of society", such as the surviving group from the plane crash in ''[[The Flight of the Phoenix (1965 film)|The Flight of the Phoenix]]'' (1965) or those on the overturned ocean liner in ''[[The Poseidon Adventure (1972 film)|The Poseidon Adventure]]'' (1972). Sobchack explained, "Most of the time in a survival film is spent depicting the process whereby the group, cut off from the securities and certainties of the ordinary support networks of civilized life, forms itself into a functioning, effective unit." The group often varies in types of characters, sometimes to the point of [[caricature]]. While women have historically been [[stereotype]]d in such films, they "often play a decisive role in the success or failure of the group."<ref name="sobchack15" />
