It's on you tube, go have a look!!!

I have had such a hard time finding this film, couldn't remember it's name or any of the actors I was only young when I saw it i was beginning to think I'd dreamt it.

Hey, thanks for sharing that it's on youtube! I was eight when it originally aired and I haven't seen it for thirty-five years, but I never forgot it. I really liked watching it again and seeing that it really was a good flick. Thanks again!

I was 11 when it came out. By today's standards its probably pretty lame, but that's the nice thing about movies you saw as a kid and watch today... they are still good. Anyone remember THE CAR? That was another one. Pretty stupid now, but boy does it bring back memories!

I was around 6 when I first saw this; I remember it alongside another flick, predecessor to THE CAR (oh yeah, that one STILL gives me the heebie jeebies, who can forget that horn? I wouldn't go anywhere NEAR a road for an entire summer after seeing that one!) called "Killdozer", which was released the same year and starred a young Robert Urich.

As long as we're sharing, I was 8 when it came out & don't recall seeing it. I do remember Peter Graves on reruns of MI.

Post-disaster movies are great. I might have a weird fetish. Most times I feel a vibration (live in SF Bay Area), I think this might be the Big One, cool.

I had the same problem! I saw this as a kid and certain parts stuck with me, but I never knew the name (and I don't know if I ever saw it from the beginning). I didn't know why most of the people were gone. I remember the family trying to get home, and the dogs. Searches came up empty until I got lucky today. Thanks for youtube shout. I hope it's still there....

Not anymore it's not.

I also saw this when I was a kid and I haven't thought of it in eons till a few days back.

The trip down memory lane was triggered by a movie I really like, Seconds (1966), directed by John Frankenheimer.

Having read the original novel by David Ely, I was very impressed with the adapted screenplay by Lewis John Carlino.

I looked up Carlino's other writing credits and lo and behold, he wrote one of the movies of my childhood, Where Have All the People Gone (1974).

TCM has a section for movie suggestions, a section with heavy input from viewers, so I immediately cited the movie as part of a tribute for the recently-deceased (March 14) Peter Graves.
