Shadow On The Land

In 1968 a TV movie was aired. It depicted a near-future America which had become a dictatorship. An underground of freedom fighters were depicted as terrorists by the media. The movie featured a false flag attack, and a new organization, the "Internal Security Forces" which acted as Federal secret police. Sound at all familiar?

That movie was never released on video or disc, and it was never remade. I searched for a decent copy for years, but all I could find was a 20th-generation copy that wasn't much more than patterned static. Someone posted a legible copy of the movie on YouTube recently. You may find it a bit prescient.You might also want to download a copy, because I wouldn't be surprised if it got taken down soon.


A modern remake would really be something, wouldn't it?
