Red Nightmare (a.k.a. The Commies Are Coming, the Commies Are Coming) (Warner Brothers, 1962) was an anti-Communist propaganda film produced by Jack Webb and starring Jack Kelly (who played "Bart Maverick" on the 1957 Maverick television series opposite James Garner and Roger Moore).
Spoiler warning: Plot and/or ending details follow.
In the film the main character is annoyed with many things in his community (EG. Civil Defense drills) and grumbles about them. He then falls asleep and Jack Webb shows up and narrates his dream of his town and the US taken over by a Communist government.
