BioHazard — Sun, 11 Sep 2011 07:54:32 +02:00

The classic 1964 cold war drama directed by Stanley Kubrick about Brigadier General Jack Ripper (Sterling Hayden). The commanding officer of a U.S. Air Force Base as well as a wing of B52 Bombers armed with nuclear weapons as part to the Airborne Alert Program who takes matters into his own hands to defend America from a Soviet conspiracy to sneak foreign substances into our precious bodily fluids by introducing fluoride into the water supply. As the only man aware of the greatest communist threat America has ever had to face he follows his sense of duty by instructing his executive officer Group Captain Lionel Mandrake (Peter Sellers) to issue an order to his wing called "Plan R", a secret code that allows a lower level commander to order a nuclear attack on the Soviet Union without the President's permission as part of a retaliatory safeguard designed to be used only if the President is dead. President Merkin Muffley (Peter Sellers) is not too happy about this and is not convinced that there is any threat to America's fluids. After an argument in the War Room at the Pentagon with General Buck Turgidson (George C. Scott) over the effectiveness of human reliability tests he orders the army to attack the base, contact General Ripper, and get him on the phone. Back at the base General Ripper explains to Mandrake that efforts underway to fluoridate water are in fact a massive communist conspiracy to contaminate our bodily fluids. A reluctant Mandrake helps Ripper defend his office with a machine gun before his men surrender and rather than be captured and give up the code Ripper shoots himself in his bathroom. Mandrake is then able to figure out the recall code from drawing on Ripper's desk mentioning "Purity of Essence" a recurrent theme that Ripper had been repeating over and over again having to do with the purity of our natural fluids.
