The COVID Timeline Warning Film - Japanese/USA Production - Henry Silva as General Garland & Our Oz

In 1980, a film was produced featuring a Japanese and USA production and cast teams. It was a warning about a global pandemic, very similar to COVID. I've heard little mention of this film and wanted to highlight because a great deal of my research surrounds projects starring Henry Silva or where he was a key supporting cast member like Manchurian Candidate or Oceans 11 but also in such lighter fare as the Cannonball Run series. Wherever Henry Silva was, TV or film, there was timeline clues. I've done long form presentations on this on YouTube and will re-upload as time permits. Until then, check out

I comment on this clip in this video.

Full Disclosure: I have a family connection to the Silvas. My opinion on why he might have done this as a 'timeline warning' comes from literally years of researching his work.
