One of those lost 80s slasher movies. The story is pretty bad but the Tom Savini effects are to notch.

I would barely call this a movie. Just a bunch of so-so clips from YouTube. I was expecting some crazy stuff to go down but nothing ever really did.

Nuclear war from the point of view of a single family in Northern California. I did appreciate the mother’s attempts at keeping her family together even though we all know how it will all end.

More melodramatic than its British counterpart Threads. I think knowing a lot of the actors in this movie took me out of it a bit. The attack sequence is still very powerful.

Not nearly as fun as I was hoping it would be. I have to give it up for The Rock tho, that guy never phones it in.

A devastating look at the real ramifications of a nuclear attack. It was hard to watch but I think everyone should watch it once.

A finely crafted story with two amazing lead performances. Every new plot detail had me trying to figure out where this movie was going.

The Lonely Island finally found a perfect fit for their style of comedy. The musical biopic is ripe for mockery. I laughed quite a lot during this movie.

Rather dull and boring telling of a pretty interesting chapter of history. I had a VIC20, C64, and Amiga500 back in the 1980s and I wish this film spent more time with software developers instead of spending most of the 2+ hour runtime focusing on the business side of things.

Clever little sci-fi movie made on a modest budget. All of those other huge, bloated and boring action movies could learn a thing or two from movies like this one.

I spent most of the movie disappointed and wondering how such a good idea could have gone so terribly wrong. The only really interesting sequence was the trap on the beach.

The gimmick still totally worked for me, I just wish the movie just had a few more scares in it. I thought it was pretty tame.

One weird slasher movie. The funniest part is that you can tell this is a foreign director’s idea of what American life is like. I did forget about that great ending. It’s so bizarre.

Finally got to see one of my all time favorites in a packed theater of like-minded fans. It was a blast.

Actually got to see this in a theater again with a great crowd. Everyone was into it.
