Rage
Rage is a 1972 American environmental thriller film directed by George C. Scott in his feature directorial debut, and starring Scott, Richard Basehart, Martin Sheen, and Barnard Hughes. The plot, which is inspired by the 1968 Dugway sheep incident, follows a rancher and his family who are fatally exposed to a military lab's poison gas.
Plot
When Wyoming sheep rancher Dan Logan and his son Chris go camping, the boy decides to sleep outside their tent. In the morning, he is unconscious and bleeding from his nose. As Dan gathers his limp body, he notices several of his sheep seem dead with similar bleeding. At a nearby hospital, Dan is bewildered to be subjected to tests by Dr. Holliford. His only concern is his son.
