In another case, newborn Joel David Hall of Whitley County, Ind., died in February from pneumonia even though, as County Coroner Alfred Allina noted, $5 worth of antibiotics might have saved his life.

This process will not stop with The Day After. Paramount already has a movie in the pipeline called Testament, about one family trying to survive a nuclear blast.
