Synopsis:
'The Ultimate Weapons' set from A2ZCDS is both disturbing and fascinating at the same time. Its historical significance can not be overrated - nor can the quality of these incredibly preserved vintage films from the dawn of the nuclear era. Over the course of the two videos you get a full picture of the development of the first nuclear weapons - that would spearhead the end of World War II - up through advanced nuclear testing in the late 1950's. If you are looking for films of nuclear bombs exploding, you will not be disappointed. You see the effects of the bomb on houses constructed at test sites, and also learn how the government planned to deal with the psychological effects of nuclear weapons. The Bikini Atoll test films are included and there is some exciting footage of the plane that would eventually drop the atomic bomb on the Japanese city of Nagasaki. These films are not for the faint of heart, but they have an overwhelming historical value and should be taken very, very seriously.
