This Is Not a Test
Late one night on a rural road in the western US, a policeman sets up a roadblock and begins stopping all traffic. When several cars and a big truck have stopped, he tells everyone why: a nuclear attack on the US appears to be underway, and since they have the truck there, their best chance at survival is to use it as a bomb shelter. Time is short and tensions in the small group quickly rise.
A mysterious stranger arrives in a small town, claiming to be the last man alive after a nuclear apocalypse. He attempts to convince a group of townspeople to join him in a bomb shelter. As paranoia and fear grip the community, they must decide whether to believe his dire warnings or dismiss him as a madman.
This low-budget B-movie is remembered for its bleak portrayal of nuclear annihilation and its suspenseful atmosphere, though its acting and script are often cited as rudimentary.
Google audience: Audience reception is largely unavailable due to the film's age and limited release, but it is generally viewed as an interesting, albeit flawed, cult classic within the sci-fi horror genre.
The film was produced by a company called Filmways, which later became famous for producing television shows like 'The Addams Family'.
