One of the greatest anti-war thrillers ever, FAIL-SAFE stars Henry Fonda, Walter Matthua, Dan O'Herlihy, Larry Hagman and Fritz Weaver (in his film debut) as a group of military men on the verge of World War III.
Synopsis: Nuclear war thriller about an American plane mistakenly receiving an order to drop atomic bombs on Moscow. Somewhat dated, but well-acted nail-biter with enough suspense and tension to please genre fans.
