“Lawrence Woolsey presents the end of civilization as we know it. Make that... Proudly Presents!”
A showman introduces a small coastal town to a unique movie experience and capitalizes on the Cuban Missile crisis hysteria with a kitschy horror extravaganza combining film effects, stage props and actors in rubber suits in this salute to the B-movie.
