DON'T BE A SUCKER

DON'T BE A SUCKER is an antifascist film produced by the United States Army Signal Corps in 1945. Despite the fact that it was made over seventy years ago, its subject matter eerily mirrors the propaganda spewing out of the mainstream of the Republican Party on a daily basis in 2024 (pay particular attention to the segment that begins at the 3:33 mark).

By the way, classic horror fans will want to keep a lookout for German-born actor Martin Kosleck, who makes a surprise appearance at the 7:38 mark. Psychotronic cineastes will remember Kosleck's indelible performances in such films as NAZI AGENT (1942), THE HITLER GANG (1944), THE MUMMY'S CURSE (1944), THE FROZEN GHOST (1945), HOUSE OF HORRORS (1946), SHE-WOLF OF LONDON (1946), and THE FLESH EATERS (1964). Few actors portrayed Nazis as convincingly as Martin Kosleck...
