Halloween Nuclear Horrors Double Fear Feature THE FUN BUNCH 2014-10-26 | Boooo! Here's 3 hours of fun........ Well it looks as though we have survived another spooky summer here at the haunted drive in, but now - it's everyone's favorite scary time of year - Halloween! And, in an effort to be a little different, we are not presenting your traditional horror fest. We thought that this year we would bring you the horrors and fears of a bygone era - the 1950's atomic threat. First up, after the usual coming attractions, we bring you that classic school house short subject, "Duck And Cover" (pay attention kiddies so you too can survive a nuclear blast). Then we bring you "Invasion USA" an action filled cautionary tale about the good 'ol USA being taking over by those nasty commies(?). Finally, follow a brief intermission featuring another atomic short, "Target You", we conclude our nuclear horrors with "Unknown World", a more traditional flick about a group of scientist who journey to the center of the Earth to escape a pending nuclear war. All in all, we promise you a hot time as long as you stand close by the microwave ovens located at the snack bar. Just don't forget to replace the speakers when you fallout.

The introductions begin on a downbeat note with news of the recent passing of cousin Creighton whose body lies in repose in an upstairs room. Shown to his room normally occupied by Cynthias cousin Cornwallis Marley (Dennis Price) Jack is greeted by a large tarantula in his bed. The arachnid belongs to Cornwallis uncle Percival (Jack Bligh) a man who's rigged the doorbell to fire blank rounds to discourage unwanted visitors. After getting knocked cold from another quirky invention of the elder Marley Jack learns of the existence of Muldoon (Archie Duncan) the brother of vampire cousin Natalia (Andree Melly). Traumatized by a tribe of headhunters Muldoon has escaped from three asylums and now lives in a dungeon cell responsive only to Natalia. Percival is quite the master inventor. He's come up with electricity moving pictures and sound recordings things Jack hasn't the heart to tell him have long been a reality. With the presumption of murder now apparent in the death of Creighton Cornwallis having also met his demise and transportation to the police not available Jack is conducting an investigation of his own an investigation that leads to Grandpa Marley (Erik Chitty) the elderly patriarch of the Marley clan. Cynthia has let slip that the family has roughly 300000 pounds to its name certainly a motive in and of itself. Uncle Reginald (Valentine Dyall) believes that Jack himself may be the killer being as how he would have a shot at the Marley loot should he marry Cynthia. Percival has conveniently invented the horseless carriage a device capable of spiriting Jack and Cynthia to the police. Unfortunately he neglected to invent the brake...
