About
Rent on Apple TV+ or buy on Apple TV+.
A showman introduces a small coastal town to a unique movie experience and capitalizes on the Cuban Missile crisis hysteria with a kitschy horror extravaganza combining film effects, stage props and actors in rubber suits in this salute to the B-movie.
Small-town Florida erupts into a frenzy of Cold War paranoia as a traveling carnival brings cheap creature features to the local cinema. This nostalgic tribute captures the chaotic magic of drive-in culture through rubber suits and low-budget spectacle.
