I remember having drills like this at school. We all had to duck under our desks. As if that would have done anything to protect us. We honestly grew up believing we would have no future. Lord how different life was back then!
Yes went through the same in 50/60’s San Francisco area schools. Now with all that is going on and threats of nuclear threats at 72 l’m going thru the same emotions l had back then.

@@carolesabo4785 same thing for me in Chicago. Every Tuesday at 10:00 or 10:30 a.m. they’d test the air-raid sirens. In elementary school, we’d run to the indoor hallway and sit with our backs against the lockers and cover our heads with our arms. Our school also had a rather large fallout shelter stocked with supplies in the basement. I don’t recall doing any drills in high school. I guess I was fatalistic, even in 6th - 8th grades. I hoped it would just fall directly on top of me. I got ahold of my older brother’s high school chemistry book and focused on the nuclear chemistry section. Learned about radioactive elements, half-life’s, and different types of radiation in addition to the power of thermonuclear bombs. That was enough for me. I’m just thankful it never happened!
@@turkfiles i don't remember much of drills in the 50s, but the Cuban Missile crisis i was 5th grade and we practiced hiding under our desks[very effective theory}. oh ya there was panic and tears from the older kids. the guys were worried of being called to war before we even got to high school.
And to think West Side Story (1962) won the oscar that year and this classic was over looked. No, joking apart. I actually enjoyed watching film. Thank you for sharing.
@@markg.7865 I have two friends that died from it. One, husband and father of a very young girl. A other one, a wife and mother of three teenagers. My wife had it and was in a coma for a few weeks, then got better. Some of my children's families got Covid-19. The entire family. I have nine adult children and 21st grandchild on the way. I really don't know if any were vaccinated or not. My sister and her husband were vaccinated and still came down with it. My sister was 70 when she was infected. What's your point? We make choices in life. Some good. Some bad. Hindsight is a human condition. I seldom go there. I take high dose vitamin D3 and leave it at that.
@@davidbenner2289 Well then if all that is true, I wouldn't be making light of any disease. Just like dumb Donald making fun of old Joe for wearing a mask. Then the dumb ass gets covid and had to be taken to the hospital.
Interesting movie and love the cars from the day. Dodge Polara cop car, Thunderbird convertible, etc. These were the second feature at the drive-in theatre or movie house when we got double feature, a cartoon and great previews. Sometimes even a featurette thrown in. Great way for a kid to spend Saturday afternoon matinees. Yeah, I'm old school and this warms my memories and heart. Good use of accelerated suspense.
Before my gang were "drive-in movies" age, we haunted one of the downtown theaters that catered to our shenanigans with a constant flow of war movies and westerns for weekend matinees. About a buck for a ticket, popcorn, candy and a soda. Their regular fare was movies more appropriate to adults. My big sister took me to Tarzan and sci-fi films, and my Mom took me to stuff like "Lady in a Cage", "Snows of Kilimanjaro", "Hatari", etc.
speaking of bomb shelters in case of a nuclear attack, the best treatment of that topic on TV came from the Twilight Zone episode where there was only one guy and his family on the block who built one in their basement; all the neighbors teased him mercilessly for building one. When indeed a possible attack was looming, the neighbors now wanted to use it in case of an attack (instead of building their own)...The main character refused because they couldn't all fit and have room for provisions. everybody went nuts to the point of violence and trashing his house...great episode...just speaks to how far fear will drive even an otherwise normal person insane in an instant...all the neighbors were having fun celebrating his birthday before they all went crazy because a nuclear attack was imminent. BTW, METV showed this very episode last night
I was born in 1962--a good year to be born! Yeah, I saw this for the first time about 25 years ago! Now I am 56--going on 57. I still like it! Thanks for posting it. This movie kept me held my attention, as the plight of the characters drew me into their situation. Movies do not need to have special effects, FX, and all that jazz--a good plot--some interesting characters--good story telling is really the best thing. I am not into sex, nudity, foul language, lots of violence and things like that--I like the psychological kind of chill. This reminded me of a Rod Serling Twilight Zone type genre--I LIKED IT! You can take modern day horror movies and stuff them--they are too gory--and NO fun at all. I like the old BW movies of old. Those were fun--and you knew it was not real, but it had some scare in it--but not so much it gave a person nightmares. Movies are supposed to entertain, not terrorize a person.
But I wish it hadn't taken until this century, if not this very year, to take it easy on the animals when you use them like wooden crates and garbage to make a movie. 52:06 Even for the story, nobody thought a thing about leaving them crated on the roadside, denied a chance to try and skedaddle to safety. I was born in 1950.
I like the part where they are all forced to wear a mask, stand 6 feet apart, stay in groups of no more than 4, no singing, no alcohol, no eating in restaurants.....oh I'm sorry that's now December 2020!
Well, of course! Covid was obviously far worse than nuclear armageddon! Nukes would kill billions, including young and healthy people, whereas Covid killed a few million mostly sick and elderly people, many of whom were going to die anyway. As a "progressive" democrat voter from San Francisco, I think we should STILL be locked down, maybe even forever! 🤪
It's Oct 2020, cops aren't shooting looters anymore.... especially downtowns across the U.S. The idea of 'order', will just be seen in movies from now on.....
I was there when the producer came up with the idea to make this film. He noted I had a spot-light and owned some property next to a ridge. 10 dollars on the barrel head and here we are.
I would have had to try and knock that cop out and take his gun, or just kill him. All the Men should have ganged up on him and beat his arse. I wouldn't let anyone do that to a poor defenseless dog!! I mean the scenario is the world's ending anyway, so why should anyone listen to that creep? It's a stupid movie anyway, like some semi truck would save them from a nuclear strike even in the 60's!
@@QuantumEffectResidue Is it some sort of subliminal message that the truck has 'Discount World' on iT? I was going to keep this to myself, but in the future quantum effect residue is going to be called Quag and life forms will feed off of iT. Oops, time for my meds.
space probe 1965---------------@@edstar83 The story opens in the late 20th century, when manned missions to outer space are becoming quite common. However, a distress call from mission Faith I requests destruction of their space vessel, as it has been contaminated by an "infectious gas" leaving all crew dead but the commander (Bob Legionaire). The mission is aborted and the ship destroyed.[1] By the year 2000, new propulsion technology has been developed. Four astronauts aboard the spaceship Hope One set off to find new planets for colonization. Their mission takes them past a space platform circling the Earth. General Mark Tillman (James Macklin) at Earth Control HQ tells a TV reporter (John Willis) that all is going according to the pre-flight plan. The crew of gravity-controlled Hope One consists of the pilot/commanding officer, Colonel Hank Stevens (James Brown), and three scientists: grandstander Dr. John Andros (Baynes Barron), the elderly mentor Dr. Paul Martin (Russ Bender), and "the woman" Dr. Lisa Wayne (Francine York). We quickly learn that Stevens didn't want a woman on the mission, but he's stuck with Dr. Wayne, who doesn't have much respect for his sexism either. Not long into their voyage, Hope One comes upon an unknown spacecraft. Earth Control instructs them to investigate and they encounter a grotesque alien. Unfortunately, the alien attacks Dr. Andros, forcing Stevens to shoot and kill the extraterrestrial. Then, radiation levels rise on the alien craft, so Stevens sets a bomb to blow it up. Unsurprisingly, Earth Control condones this activity, with crew safety taking priority over scientific discovery. After a fiery meteorite storm leads to an emergency landing in the ocean of an Earth-like "escaped moon," repairs are the first priority but Tillman takes time to apologize to Wayne for his sexist remarks, which results in a quick reconciliation and a more-than-friendly kiss. While repairs continue, giant crabs take an interest in the ship. The crew decides to test the atmosphere to see if it contains breathable air, which it does. Then, Andros volunteers to go scout the nearest land mass. A "sea monster" almost intercepts him, but the scientist reaches shore, while his comrades continue repairs and worry about him. Upon his return to the ship, Andros is attacked by the sea monster and, after making it back to the ship, perishes after confirming the planet can support human life and plants could grow on the new planet. The crew confirms this to Earth, names the planet Andros One, and rockets back to Earth.
15:57 “About 15 cats are gonna get out of their cars and just push em right off the road man”. Something I have never heard before nor will I hear anywhere else ever again.
If they don't like waiting, they can all turn around and go back in the direction they came from. The officer was only instructed to not let drivers proceed through. Nothing about forcing them to not turn around.
@@brysoncherry9884 - You aren't being fair, so stop saying "to be fair." The old "They can't act" BS is really lame. One male guy on here says they couldn't act back then, now some male chauvinist says women can't act today. Somebody(s) just doesn't appreciate women acting in movies and thinks they're only eye candy. It's chauvinistic drabble.
Cast and crew members held a chicken bbq with the the dead chickens killed by the murderer who went nuts when he couldn’t find keys in any of the vehicles @52:07 The chickens that lived never wanted to be in another movie.
Never heard of this movie before, but certainly glad I watched it. There's no hope that the inside of the truck will be safe, but it's all they've got. I find that pretty scary.
Some '50s SciFi movies were destined to become cult classics. Some were destined to be immortalized by MST3K. And some were born to be forgotten. This is one of the latter. Tx for uploading. Love these, noir and B-westerns.
Terrible ending. Cop should have been taken care of long ago. If I’d have been there I’d have made sure we all jumped him and END him. He was the problem, not the bomb.
I guess that back then, 1953 for me, ANYTHING caught on film was considered "entertainment"???? The blond's husband blows his head off and not a flinch. Her dog gets murdered and she falls apart. Just wow! I've just recently been re-watching some of these old films that I grew up with and it's difficult. A whole lot of them are just trash or REALLY bizarre. I'm kinda surprised I turned out only partially warped. Thanks for preserving these. But still, WOW!
This one never made it to my local drive in movie theatre. I got lucky once and saw the original "Night of the Living Dead" at the drivein. It was similarly black and white but the sense of claustrophobia and being trapped was exceptionally well done, IMO.
@46:35 That husband didnt want to confront his wife... maybe he knew she was messing around all the time, but couldnt stand to confront her .. and that look she gave the guy "Do you know what your doing *intense look* ..then "You dames... you're all alike". Even he knew she was two-timing her control freak husband.... classic.
A biting social commentary that faithfully and breathtakingly recaptures the angst of a nation...just before the Beatles arrived. The interconnected stories conjure up images of the hapless travelers from Thornton Wilder's 'Bridge of San Luis Rey'. It is in effect a thoroughly modern re imagining of 'Canterbury Tales'. The acting is focused and intense. A person can easily identify with one of the hapless wayfarers. The pivotal role of the police officer--a modern epitome of The Knight--is played with an intensity not seen since Patrick Star's interpretation of his role in 'Sponge out of Water'. I am left moved and haunted by this film. But now excuse me as I must go throw up...
If I live to be 1000 years old I will Never nor could I ever see a Greater Masterpiece of Cinematic Wonder and Emotional Eclipse as this Movement of Art, Beauty and sheer intelligence!! All the answers I've been seeking about life, Love and Purpose in this world have now been answered!! Oh wait .....That was that movie I saw last week. This one SUCKS! LOL.
I don’t understand all the enthusiasm for this movie. I can only hope the book was better. I had lots of nuclear, biological, and chemical warfare training through my years in the military. There is only two things that can save you from the blast radiation (gamma rays). That is distance using the inverse square law. Doubling the distance gives you one quarter of the exposure. The other is a large amount of mass between you and the blast like a mountain. The fallout is made up of Alfa and beta radiation. This is the stuff that depletes through radio active half life. In this case hiding in the truck could o helped with the fallout. I have doubts about surviving the every day heat for a month or more. Most of the radiation will be depleted to a point that you could leave the area. Where you would go after a nuclear apocalypse is unknown. Military never trains you for the long game.
The idiot Highway Patrolman, after the people had almost completely unloaded the truck says, "not here over there...we might have to move this truck." IDIOT
I remember this when the bomb went off they panned everyone slowly as they evaporated to skeletons, the cop outside the truck, and everyone inside turned from solid to skeletons . that short scene was cut out.
I have this movie on DVD. It used to come on TV in the early 1970s in Southern California. It's a Cold War era film about an atomic attack against the US by the Russians. It's ironic that this movie was made in 1962 and that was the year of The Cuban Missile Crisis. I like to watch this movie around Halloween , but I can watch it anytime. Happy Halloween 2020!🎃🎃🎃🎃👻👻👻👻
I hope the guy won an award for handling chickens on screen. Charles Ingalls in Little House on the Prairie didn't man-handle as many chickens throughout the whole TV series as this guy did in a few minutes.
@ 43:53 We can tell he never served in an USA Infantry unit, because a Marine and Solider [my apologies I can't speak for the Navy or Air Force] will always keep a rifle, shotgun and any other firearm close, not so far away that anyone can take it from that person.
13:10 - The emergency warning ("This is not a test!") is like what we got on our phones in Hawaii in January 2018. It was played on TV and radio as well.
Exactly. They're the ones who feel they have to scare the masses so they can be controlled easier. All their fake news BS, lies and insinuations to scare people so they wont complain when their rights are taken from them and be taxed into the poorhouse. If liberal Democrats are in charge and they tell you "YOU'RE GOING TO DIE IN 12 YEARS IF WE DONT DO SOMETHING ABOUT GLOBAL WARMING!!" or "TRUMPS GOING TO PUT US ALL IN CHAINS/NUKE US/blahblahblah", don't believe them. Man if they told me the bomb was coming, I wouldn't even flinch.
hebneh yes . What a nightmare that was . My nefue 😲 was in Washington state and got a call from his wife in Hawaii 😮. So sad 😞 all we could do is Pray. Standing in. A Parking lot in the rain . So glad it was a mistake 🙏🙏🙏
She could have beaten the ticket anyway. What was his proof that she was driving too fast? She was within the speed limit and she was in control enough to get stopped OK.
The screenwriter - Towne - became Hollywood's leading "script doctor". They'd call him in to do quick rewrites of bad scripts or bad sections of scripts. It's pretty obvious that there are no more script doctors left in Hollywood.
People go absolutely nuts when panic sets in. Go to Wal-Mart to see the frightened faces walking fast while pushing their carts. Faith drives out fear.
Go to Walmart on Blackfriday. I promise, you'll lose absolutely any remaining faith whatsoever you may have had left in any of of humanity. It's far beyond unbelievable. It's frightening.
Yes! I was at Walmart during the one alert, don't even know what it was, and I was pretty young, six or seven, and even at that age I remember my older sister and her husband (actually they were just dating then) just laughing and laughing and she was like aren't they ridiculous and I just cracked up and started shaking my head
Despite how much we enjoy the quality level of the various aspects of this film, it stands as a historically valuable document of those times. People were genuinely worried about what we called 'MAD' - Mutually Assured Destruction - a crazy philosophy of power-mad politicians and generals, supposed to ensure peace between the Eastern and the Western blocs. What is most fascinating to me is why that concern has gone away. It seems that many folk today believe that things have somehow changed, so that the danger of nuclear destruction, i.e. the destruction of society, is a thing only of that era, and now a thing of the past. After the treaty in the eighties to reduce the number of bombs stockpiled in the arsenals of various nations, the number did certainly decrease, from over 60,000 warheads to about 12,000 now. But that is still far, far in excess of what would bring a total armageddon.
Probably the worst movie script, acting, casting, dialog, music, editing, directing and chicken abuse of any movie I've ever seen. I watched the whole thing. Thanks!

Go to a channel called Mossy Bottom, if you want some inspiration! Good luck.
@@carolesabo4785 same thing for me in Chicago. Every Tuesday at 10:00 or 10:30 a.m. they’d test the air-raid sirens. In elementary school, we’d run to the indoor hallway and sit with our backs against the lockers and cover our heads with our arms. Our school also had a rather large fallout shelter stocked with supplies in the basement. I don’t recall doing any drills in high school. I guess I was fatalistic, even in 6th - 8th grades. I hoped it would just fall directly on top of me. I got ahold of my older brother’s high school chemistry book and focused on the nuclear chemistry section. Learned about radioactive elements, half-life’s, and different types of radiation in addition to the power of thermonuclear bombs. That was enough for me.
I’m just thankful it never happened!
@@turkfiles i don't remember much of drills in the 50s, but the Cuban Missile crisis i was 5th grade and we practiced hiding under our desks[very effective theory}. oh ya there was panic and tears from the older kids. the guys were worried of being called to war before we even got to high school.
And to think West Side Story (1962) won the oscar that year and this classic was over looked. No, joking apart. I actually enjoyed watching film. Thank you for sharing.
There were other good movies besides these two.
Where is the justice?
It kind of reminds me of the Roger Corman / Bill Shatner classic, "I Hate Your Guts". Very timeless themes, done on a budget.
@Dennis Vance Thats a pretty limited life🤣🤣🤣
Yeah really !
The cop seems like a mental case. By the way, two weeks in a truck? Food? Bathroom? But uh, the truck does protect you from a nuke, right? Wrong.
Why not ? A refrigerator saved Indiana Jones !
@@joelonzello4189 i remember. The refrigerator preserved him. 😏
Crazy what fear does to people. perhaps the best B movie I have seen in awhile.
Reminds me of the Covid-19 panic.
@@davidbenner2289 I know a couple of people that were hospitalized from Covid-19, I bet they wish they had taken it more seriously!
@@markg.7865 I have two friends that died from it. One, husband and father of a very young girl. A other one, a wife and mother of three teenagers. My wife had it and was in a coma for a few weeks, then got better. Some of my children's families got Covid-19. The entire family. I have nine adult children and 21st grandchild on the way. I really don't know if any were vaccinated or not. My sister and her husband were vaccinated and still came down with it. My sister was 70 when she was infected. What's your point? We make choices in life. Some good. Some bad. Hindsight is a human condition. I seldom go there. I take high dose vitamin D3 and leave it at that.
@@davidbenner2289 Well then if all that is true, I wouldn't be making light of any disease. Just like dumb Donald making fun of old Joe for wearing a mask. Then the dumb ass gets covid and had to be taken to the hospital.
Interesting movie and love the cars from the day. Dodge Polara cop car, Thunderbird convertible, etc. These were the second feature at the drive-in theatre or movie house when we got double feature, a cartoon and great previews. Sometimes even a featurette thrown in. Great way for a kid to spend Saturday afternoon matinees. Yeah, I'm old school and this warms my memories and heart. Good use of accelerated suspense.
Best of aii, it cost all of 75 cents, back in the day.
@@donkeyslayer4661 50 cents at the grand old theaters in downtown Champaign, IL: RKO Orpheum, RKO Virginia and the Rialto. Those were the days.
A dollar at the drive in and that includes as many people as you could fit in your trunk!
Before my gang were "drive-in movies" age, we haunted one of the downtown theaters that catered to our shenanigans with a constant flow of war movies and westerns for weekend matinees. About a buck for a ticket, popcorn, candy and a soda. Their regular fare was movies more appropriate to adults. My big sister took me to Tarzan and sci-fi films, and my Mom took me to stuff like "Lady in a Cage", "Snows of Kilimanjaro", "Hatari", etc.
I LOVE this movie,a drive in,late night at home special!Unexpected thrills and chills.
For a unappreciated Gem, see 1962's, -
PANIC IN THE YEAR ZERO, with Ray Miland.
Panic is a much better film, what would we all do in such an event? The cop seems more like a thug!
@@harrylime8077 You're the third man to say that!
speaking of bomb shelters in case of a nuclear attack, the best treatment of that topic on TV came from the Twilight Zone episode where there was only one guy and his family on the block who built one in their basement; all the neighbors teased him mercilessly for building one. When indeed a possible attack was looming, the neighbors now wanted to use it in case of an attack (instead of building their own)...The main character refused because they couldn't all fit and have room for provisions. everybody went nuts to the point of violence and trashing his house...great episode...just speaks to how far fear will drive even an otherwise normal person insane in an instant...all the neighbors were having fun celebrating his birthday before they all went crazy because a nuclear attack was imminent. BTW, METV showed this very episode last night
I was reminded of that episode.
I think it was called "The Shelter." One of my favorite TZ episodes.
The finest "Twilight" episode of all - what an incredible ending!
I loved it!! Seems to capture a period of film now long gone. Thanks for posting.
The most serious threat those people are facing is that cop. He'd be the first problem to manage, after that everything else is minimal.
Totally agree. The most dangerous enemy will always be your own government.
I was born in 1962--a good year to be born! Yeah, I saw this for the first time about 25 years ago! Now I am 56--going on 57. I still like it! Thanks for posting it. This movie kept me held my attention, as the plight of the characters drew me into their situation. Movies do not need to have special effects, FX, and all that jazz--a good plot--some interesting characters--good story telling is really the best thing. I am not into sex, nudity, foul language, lots of violence and things like that--I like the psychological kind of chill. This reminded me of a Rod Serling Twilight Zone type genre--I LIKED IT!
You can take modern day horror movies and stuff them--they are too gory--and NO fun at all. I like the old BW movies of old. Those were fun--and you knew it was not real, but it had some scare in it--but not so much it gave a person nightmares. Movies are supposed to entertain, not terrorize a person.
Hey Ms Michelle, reporting in from 1963. ( born 1963. lol )..and I agree with ya..
But I wish it hadn't taken until this century, if not this very year, to take it easy on the animals when you use them like wooden crates and garbage to make a movie. 52:06 Even for the story, nobody thought a thing about leaving them crated on the roadside, denied a chance to try and skedaddle to safety. I was born in 1950.
I agree with you to. No blood, no sex and no swear words. And good stories. I was born in 61 and I understand what you mean.
michelle reed ok ok Michelle don’t get a rambunctious about stuffing things. Pu-lees
@Wesson Steel I'm from 1951. Love the old stuff.
That Deputy Sheriff Would Definitely Has To Go.....Over The Cliff😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡
I agree he was strange acting from the beginning and unnecessarily controlling
I like the part where they are all forced to wear a mask, stand 6 feet apart, stay in groups of no more than 4, no singing, no alcohol, no eating in restaurants.....oh I'm sorry that's now December 2020!
Yeah! the people giving orders are just as power hungry and crazy.
That's hilarious 😂
Well, of course! Covid was obviously far worse than nuclear armageddon! Nukes would kill billions, including young and healthy people, whereas Covid killed a few million mostly sick and elderly people, many of whom were going to die anyway. As a "progressive" democrat voter from San Francisco, I think we should STILL be locked down, maybe even forever! 🤪

Timmy the dog was my favorite character.
The worst part of the movie, douchbag killing the dog, but he got his in the end.
I would have had to try and knock that cop out and take his gun, or just kill him. All the Men should have ganged up on him and beat his arse. I wouldn't let anyone do that to a poor defenseless dog!! I mean the scenario is the world's ending anyway, so why should anyone listen to that creep?

space probe 1965---------------@@edstar83 The story opens in the late 20th century, when manned missions to outer space are becoming quite common. However, a distress call from mission Faith I requests destruction of their space vessel, as it has been contaminated by an "infectious gas" leaving all crew dead but the commander (Bob Legionaire). The mission is aborted and the ship destroyed.[1]
By the year 2000, new propulsion technology has been developed. Four astronauts aboard the spaceship Hope One set off to find new planets for colonization. Their mission takes them past a space platform circling the Earth. General Mark Tillman (James Macklin) at Earth Control HQ tells a TV reporter (John Willis) that all is going according to the pre-flight plan.
The crew of gravity-controlled Hope One consists of the pilot/commanding officer, Colonel Hank Stevens (James Brown), and three scientists: grandstander Dr. John Andros (Baynes Barron), the elderly mentor Dr. Paul Martin (Russ Bender), and "the woman" Dr. Lisa Wayne (Francine York). We quickly learn that Stevens didn't want a woman on the mission, but he's stuck with Dr. Wayne, who doesn't have much respect for his sexism either.
Not long into their voyage, Hope One comes upon an unknown spacecraft. Earth Control instructs them to investigate and they encounter a grotesque alien. Unfortunately, the alien attacks Dr. Andros, forcing Stevens to shoot and kill the extraterrestrial. Then, radiation levels rise on the alien craft, so Stevens sets a bomb to blow it up. Unsurprisingly, Earth Control condones this activity, with crew safety taking priority over scientific discovery.
After a fiery meteorite storm leads to an emergency landing in the ocean of an Earth-like "escaped moon," repairs are the first priority but Tillman takes time to apologize to Wayne for his sexist remarks, which results in a quick reconciliation and a more-than-friendly kiss. While repairs continue, giant crabs take an interest in the ship. The crew decides to test the atmosphere to see if it contains breathable air, which it does. Then, Andros volunteers to go scout the nearest land mass. A "sea monster" almost intercepts him, but the scientist reaches shore, while his comrades continue repairs and worry about him. Upon his return to the ship, Andros is attacked by the sea monster and, after making it back to the ship, perishes after confirming the planet can support human life and plants could grow on the new planet. The crew confirms this to Earth, names the planet Andros One, and rockets back to Earth.
That's hilarious.
I think the one that belongs to couple that was speeding is a 1960-62 T-Bird.
15:57 “About 15 cats are gonna get out of their cars and just push em right off the road man”. Something I have never heard before nor will I hear anywhere else ever again.
If they don't like waiting, they can all turn around and go back in the direction they came from. The officer was only instructed to not let drivers proceed through. Nothing about forcing them to not turn around.
Yep. Total Bat Turn outta there....
This movie is a good example about one thing..it speaks the truth about how people would really react to a crises like this.

These old B movies had the hottest chicks who couldn’t act to save their lives.
But they were good for other things!
How can u know if they are fully clothed and no exposed mamary glands or reprodictive organs showing ön camera?
I thought they were just as good at acting as the men in this movie.
To be fair most good looking actresses in today's flicks are the same. Can't act just aesthetic set dressing.
@@brysoncherry9884 - You aren't being fair, so stop saying "to be fair." The old "They can't act" BS is really lame.

I guess that back then, 1953 for me, ANYTHING caught on film was considered "entertainment"???? The blond's husband blows his head off and not a flinch. Her dog gets murdered and she falls apart. Just wow! I've just recently been re-watching some of these old films that I grew up with and it's difficult. A whole lot of them are just trash or REALLY bizarre. I'm kinda surprised I turned out only partially warped. Thanks for preserving these. But still, WOW!
@Brian Pierce I think the suicide, the chickens being killed and the dog were unusually brutal for the time.
Good flick, never heard of it and I thought I was familiar with all these 50's and 60's sci-fi yarns.
This one never made it to my local drive in movie theatre. I got lucky once and saw the original "Night of the Living Dead" at the drivein. It was similarly black and white but the sense of claustrophobia and being trapped was exceptionally well done, IMO.
JUST LOVE THIS SCI-FI MOVIES FROM THE 50'S AND EARLY 60'S.
@46:35 That husband didnt want to confront his wife... maybe he knew she was messing around all the time, but couldnt stand to confront her .. and that look she gave the guy "Do you know what your doing *intense look* ..then "You dames... you're all alike". Even he knew she was two-timing her control freak husband.... classic.
A biting social commentary that faithfully and breathtakingly recaptures the angst of a nation...just before the Beatles arrived. The interconnected stories conjure up images of the hapless travelers from Thornton Wilder's 'Bridge of San Luis Rey'. It is in effect a thoroughly modern re imagining of 'Canterbury Tales'. The acting is focused and intense. A person can easily identify with one of the hapless wayfarers. The pivotal role of the police officer--a modern epitome of The Knight--is played with an intensity not seen since Patrick Star's interpretation of his role in 'Sponge out of Water'. I am left moved and haunted by this film. But now excuse me as I must go throw up...

I love these old movies.
I don’t understand all the enthusiasm for this movie. I can only hope the book was better. I had lots of nuclear, biological, and chemical warfare training through my years in the military. There is only two things that can save you from the blast radiation (gamma rays). That is distance using the inverse square law. Doubling the distance gives you one quarter of the exposure. The other is a large amount of mass between you and the blast like a mountain. The fallout is made up of Alfa and beta radiation. This is the stuff that depletes through radio active half life. In this case hiding in the truck could o helped with the fallout. I have doubts about surviving the every day heat for a month or more. Most of the radiation will be depleted to a point that you could leave the area. Where you would go after a nuclear apocalypse is unknown. Military never trains you for the long game.
God help us all,.The way the world is going were not to far off of that happening. SPOOKY STUFF!!

By the time This is Not a Test came out, that meme was probably already overused.
I have this movie on DVD. It used to come on TV in the early 1970s in Southern California. It's a Cold War era film about an atomic attack against the US by the Russians.

13:10 - The emergency warning ("This is not a test!") is like what we got on our phones in Hawaii in January 2018. It was played on TV and radio as well.
Exactly. They're the ones who feel they have to scare the masses so they can be controlled easier. All their fake news BS, lies and insinuations to scare people so they wont complain when their rights are taken from them and be taxed into the poorhouse.

Americans live on the edge of panic, so it's no surprise.
Walmart, the most horrifying place on earth !!!
Despite how much we enjoy the quality level of the various aspects of this film, it stands as a historically valuable document of those times. People were genuinely worried about what we called 'MAD' - Mutually Assured Destruction - a crazy philosophy of power-mad politicians and generals, supposed to ensure peace between the Eastern and the Western blocs.
What is most fascinating to me is why that concern has gone away. It seems that many folk today believe that things have somehow changed, so that the danger of nuclear destruction, i.e. the destruction of society, is a thing only of that era, and now a thing of the past. After the treaty in the eighties to reduce the number of bombs stockpiled in the arsenals of various nations, the number did certainly decrease, from over 60,000 warheads to about 12,000 now. But that is still far, far in excess of what would bring a total armageddon.
