Don't believe the church and state means think for yourself as they will use you as their pawns.Swear allegiance to their flag means keep your head down and use citizenship to your advantage. Eg. education, military training.Freedom is not something you can take for granted. Eg. Stalin, Hitler, Pol Pot, Bin Laden...The video just scifi.

I always wondered what movie it was!
Thanks!
I've always thought of this video as "RedDawn-esque". Now I find out I'm not the only one! LOL
Who knew?!?!

I assume you were a kid/teen? Everyone says that about their childhood era. It was simpler and easier because it was your parents who paid the mortgages and Israel attacking or being attacked didn't even register. It's funny when you hear about people who were 8-14 in the early 70's and how much "simpler" and "innocent" things were. No mention of Viet Nam or the Kennedy's or Munich.Every era is the same. It's all about whether you have a security blanket and someone wiping your tushy.

To clear up the confusion, this is from the little known movie "Choke Canyon". It was released in the UK as "On Dangerous Ground" However, the video contains clips that are not in the movie, so it's a little weird

From what I understand this movie was never released in the USA (where I am from) due to the graphic scenes of war between Russia and the USA (dont ask me this is what I read somewhere). I have asked all my Brit friends if the know where to get this. It was called "On Dangerous Ground" I always try to find someone who knows about it as this was the title song. Email Mike Rutherford , maybe he knows.. I have tried

When I saw this video back in the day, I thought "I wanna see the movie that this is from". I noticed that in brackets after the song title it says "On dangerous ground", so I rented a movie called that thinking it was the right one. I watched it all the way through just waiting for this song. It wasn';t the right film! Hrrmph! I dunno what that movie was about, I didn't take it in because I was just waiting for the music. Haha!
