Day 10: ESTIMATION…DECIMATION (nuclear war/fallout)

“Testament” (1983). More of a drama than pure psychotronic, but it had baby Coster and De Mornay! *Could* have been day 1 “Introducing..” for Lukas Haas

Day 9: MASTER OF DISASTER (one by Irwin Allen)

Day 7: NOW THAT’S BRASS (one with metal)

“Tetsuo: The Iron Man” (1989). If you are still looking for a film with “little dialog” for 10/15, this will fit the bill for that too
