Viewing Notes

The first movie of the Music Box Theatre’s Sci-Fi Spectacular 5 that I attended with friends in Chicago.

This was a last minute substitution for another Roger Corman film that was supposed to play.

Early, early B-movie nuclear apocalypse movie, and quite a bit of fun in it’s campy, low budget way. Honestly, I grew up on films like this, so I love ‘em.
