Jason Robards
Armegeddian time...seen in the heart of the US. Filmed around Lawrence, Kansas this presented a realistic, if dated now, picture of what would happen if they dropped the big one.
Not quite as gritty as a contemporary British film on the same topic - Threads - but pretty chilling nonetheless. Strong acting, makeup, set design and solid character development. This film scared the shit out of people at the time. Who knows why it has never happened? At least not yet.
Intelligent treatment of an extremely unpleasant subject.
