Black Sunday

Black Sunday is a 1977 movie about a terrorist plot to blow up the Super Bowl with a bomb loaded on the Goodyear blimp. Directed by John Frankenheimer (The Manchurian Candidate) and produced by Robert Evans (Chinatown), it was based on a novel by Thomas Harris (The Silence of the Lambs) and stars Robert Shaw (Jaws) and Bruce Dern (Coming Home). The story and title were inspired by the attack on Israeli athletes at the 1972 Munich Olympics by the Black September organization.
