23skidoo 1st Mar 2016		Since when did this site become a forum for conspiracy theories? All I wanted to do was change a fact about the show not being an ongoing series. Ignoring the fact that I watched both it and Red Dawn when they came out and they were both poorly made shows. The reason why there were no other type shows made is because they were crap. If they'd been half decent there might have been more.



harley 29th Feb 2016		@23skidoo I've changed the notes.



Magic Marmalade 29th Feb 2016		Nice review Comrade.



George Slv 29th Feb 2016		Rated 7/10 Oh yes, anti-Communism. You know what's coming next. How many will there be on this site who will express disdain for it and for "McCarthyism" and such? To the rest of you: patriotic Americans succeeded in convincing the ABC network to run something to counter the constant pro-communist propaganda in the media. This was one mini-series, quite extended. The ratings were okay, but not spectacular, maybe because it was drawn out. So of course fodder for political commentators. But to make a long story short, soon after, the Disney Company bought ABC, and made sure nothing like that would ever be shown on TV ever again. That's how it works. The story showed how Russians came in and stormed Congress and massacred it. Kristofferson is the hero, who is first seen in prison, and when released gets involved in resistance. No there was not a victorious ending ... but for some that is a happy ending. Now you can be happy about Obama and things like the assassination of Chief Justice Scalia. 4 people found this review helpful. ✔︎ Helpful Review?



23skidoo 28th Feb 2016		I believe this was a one-off miniseries, not an ongoing series as the Notes seem to suggest. There was a similar cult movie called Red Dawn (that was remade a couple years ago) that had the same concept.
