No, in fact, it must be worse than that because the puny, little ol' regular war that Uncle Sam selected me for did that. It however has been my observation that "Scare Tactics" alone, regarding war or VD, has not been overly successful. Thus, I was disappointed in The Day After because it seemed to me to be primarily scare tactics. Did anyone detect a real plot? As far as horror is concerned, how can anyone watch the films from Nagasaki and Hiroshima and not get the message --- and that was real! Another Turkey for Thanksgiving. --Larry
