“Radar Men From the Moon” Condensed Edit

August 23rd, 2008 |

The original series of “Radar Men From the Moon” serial ran as twelve different episodes, consuming more than two hours of your life, this newly super-condensed version runs just over 14 action-packed minutes.

Our condensed version of this entire series is kind of like one tasty sausage, rather than a whole bunch of little weenies strung together. We took only the finest, choice scenes, added in some tasty editing, and cooked it until well-done. It’s been said you never want to see sausage being made, but we’re confident you’ll love how this one goes down.

Survival Under Atomic Attack

November 4th, 2007 |

If an atomic attack occurred without warning, would you be prepared and know what to do to survive? This film starts off with what to expect when the big blast goes off, and tells you what to do until the radiation dies down a bit, using examples from Hiroshima & Nagasaki. The survival tips are laughable: a few crackers, a bottle of water, and some suntan oil they say should be plenty to get you through your 50 kiloton nightmare.

The House in the Middle

October 21st, 2007 |

Better housekeeping = nuclear survival!
With the threat of an atomic attack that could come at any time, some good-hearted folks from the “National Clean up-Paint up-Fix up Bureau” decided to do their part to ensure your post-apocolyptic survival. They filmed homes near an atomic blast site, showing that if only people would just clean up the litter around their homes, and tidied them up inside, you stood a much better chance of survival. Painting the home an appropriately reflective color, such as white, would also help ensure you would get to scavenge for gasoline, food and shelter, and maybe become your own version of ‘Mad Max’.
