    I just rewatched this about a month ago while on CQ. Not great, but yet a fun one to watch.

    This stood out to me as a young boy growing up next to an AF base.

    As a child of the 80’s, nuclear Armageddon movies scared the crap out of me but I loved watching them.

  4. Derek says:

    Was just thinking how long it’s been since I saw this. Great movie for a 80’s kid.
