- Nightmare Fuel: Although the film no longer exists, or at the very least is no longer in public circulation, its depiction of the near-total collapse of the natural environment brought on by unchecked industrialization was said to be very unsettling for many viewers. Hell, just reading the description on the main page is enough to give one an idea of just what horrors lay in store for those watching back in the day. It didn't help that, similar to the later TV film Special Bulletin, even if you knew it was a Phony Newscast, the fact that it looked very much like a real newscast gave it a creepy verisimilitude.
