Man, do I ever remember this movie. I was eight years old and I begged my parents to let me watch it with my older sisters. They finally agreed and that was one of the first times I wished they had stood their ground. That movie scared the hell out of me. My eight year old mind wasn't prepared to accept that there was that kind of evil lurking in the world. I already had an unnatural fear of black cars and natural disasters and now I had to worry about nuclear weapons! Lord, I made sure I said my prayers that night and let everyone know how much I loved them. I had nightmares for a long time. My parents regretted letting me watch it. I haven't seen it since, but I'm sure if I did, I'd have the same feelings.
