This Is Not a Test (1962)
Roadblock on the Highway to Hell
26 November 2000 - 25 out of 26 users found this review helpful.
A group of motorists traveling a remote mountain road are stopped at a roadblock by a no-nonsense highway patrolman, who is looking for an escaped felon. Suddenly, over the cop's radio comes the news that enemy ICBMs are on the way. Of course, society -- represented in microcosm by the small group -- freaks out, trying to come to grips with the fact that they are trapped between a rock and a hard place, with almost certain death only minutes away. This very low-budget Cold War flick is actually fairly effective and is played plausibly, with decent performances turned in by the virtually unknown cast. Tautly suspenseful, and well worth tracking down.
