Mischief Night (2013)
Hmm
It's a movie either watch it and like it or don't. Also seems to be lots of use of the word derivative in these reviews, people just discovered it or something?
Further what is it with the endless film critic wannabees posting reviews, I want to see what non overly analytical people think of movies (you know us "normals").
If I want to read boring arty "I work in the profession, can you tell by how I talk about lighting and it being derivative etc" critic reviews then I would (which is why IMDb gives both choices of reviews to read).
Anyway, the film is a bit useless and has been done better before, but if a cheap horror flick is your thing give it a whirl, yes there are worse movies than this!

I remember this
I can remember being a mere 9 years old when this first aired. Living in the North of England it had hit a nerve with me even then. I was scared, I was honestly terrified of Nuclear War, as certainly most children were.
My father having been in the Army until a little before this documentary - movie wanted us to watch this. However by the explosion point and the graphic after effects he sent us to bed.
For years I tried to remember what this was called, finally I have found it again, and can say nearly 30 years later it still has that same impact. But then I grew up in the last true threat of the cold war going nuclear. Heck we used to have Siren checks in my town twice a year and routines for the school to follow.
Even if your a teenager, approach this with a non "oh crap it's so ancient eye" but with this is an example of what a nuclear war WOULD be like ... maybe you will play your COD etc in a slightly different light.
Just watch it.
