Oscar-winning actor Ray Milland directs and stars in a movie that is a fascinating look at people fleeing from a nuclear attack in Los Angeles in 1962 in “Panic in the Year Zero!” Director Milland (“A Man Alone” 1955) keeps the cast and storyline on track with a lean screenplay by John Morton and Jay Simms.
The supporting cast includes Jean Hagen as Milland’s wife. Her most famous role was Lina Lamont in “Singing in the Rain” (1952). Frankie Avalon and Mary Mitchel play his children. Other actors are Joan Freeman, Richard Bakalyan, Hugh Sanders, Byron Morrow, and O. Z. Whitehead. The very believeable and watchable “B” movie “Panic in the Year Zero!” was not very successful at the box office for American International Pictures.
