CS #199Invasion, U.S.A. (1952)

is a classic piece of Cold War anti-communist propaganda that portrays a fictional Soviet invasion of the United States. The film uses a combination of original footage and extensive stock war footage to deliver a strong message about the importance of national defense and vigilance against external threats.
Plot Summary
The story begins in a New York City bar where a diverse group of American citizens engage in a debate about politics, taxes, and global tensions. They express complacency about the need for a strong national defense. A mysterious stranger (Mr. Ohman, played by Dan O'Herlihy) is present during this discussion, which leads to a shared trance or hypothetical scenario where a full-scale communist invasion becomes a reality.
