In the mid-1980s, the U.S. is poised on the brink of nuclear war. This shadow looms over the residents of a small town in Kansas as they continue their daily lives. Dr. Russell Oakes (Jason Robards) maintains his busy schedule at the hospital, Denise Dahlberg prepares for her upcoming wedding, and Stephen Klein (Steve Guttenberg) is deep in his graduate studies. When the unthinkable happens and the bombs come down, the town's residents are thrust into the horrors of nuclear winter.
Why didn't I think of that??!

I remember this movie being a huge deal. My teacher told our class that we should watch.

I'm inclined to agree r4 but it doesn't diminish the impact of The Day After.

I watched with a group of friends. We were very stoned. The scene that still sticks with me is the coeds walking around the quads, which suddenly open up to launch the ICBMs hidden below.
