    Cinemania Field Report: Pseudorealities

Cinquisitor Ethan explores key films of the era, examines the underlying anxieties that drove this trend, and speculates on why it has largely faded in recent years.   Written by Ethan Ireland and Andy Slack Performed by Ethan Ireland, Mark Hennessy-Barrett, and Andy Slack Music by Karl Casey at White Bat Audio Tracks used: Atomic Punk, Mass Extinction, Doomsday, Future War, Fermi Paradox This is a work of parody and/or satire and should not be construed as making statements or allegations of actual fact.
