I've given the humans enough time, it's Beneath The Planet of the Apes. Brent is being escorted through the hall of Mendez busts.
 
Is that just before he meets the locked up Chuck Heston?
It's been a while. Still, though it's the most odd of the movies, and I like odd movies, it's not my favourite. Shame, as the Holy Bomb idea is a good one.
I'm a big fan of the Apes films, or was, and still have the VHS boxed set of the big five movies (have since learned that there are a couple of just for TV Apes movies too) and a couple of issues of the Apes comic book.

Christmas 1999 I was given the boxed set and watched them all between Christmas and New Year. On New Years eve 1999-2000 I got hellaciously drunk and had a slight break with reality. Maybe it was all the "Y2K" fear or just the "Eventness" of the millennium, but I became convinced that come midnight, it was gonna be the Planet of the Apes, and wondered around Edinburgh asking people what they were going to do, how they were going to cope.
Lol.
Apparently I asked a couple of police officers what their plans to protect us were before my then-girlfriend whisked me away, no doubt smiling at them over her shoulder. Oh dear, lol.

I believe so, yes.

It freaked me out when I was a kid - especially when they removed the masks. But I think it's my favorite one of the originals because of the Holy Bomb.

Ha!
 
Ok. I'm going for it.
The Manchurian Candidate - they think they are at a ladies meeting about flower arranging (or something) but they're really in a room with a bunch of killer commies.

Correct, connected by the wonderful James Gregory as senator iselin and general ursus.
 
okay, the connection to The Greatest Story Every Told is a supporting actor, which might be more difficult than the title.
