Just in time for the post-holiday commute, last night FX served up a paranoia-inducing mockumentary on a terrorist-driven smallpox outbreak, complete with a cameo from Al Sharpton.

The film's Web site, oozing with red-tinged pus bubbles, offers up a "bioterrorism" page which asserts rather vaguely that "credible concern exists that the virus was made into a weapon by some countries and that terrorists may have obtained it." The film's tagline, "It's All True. It Just Hasn't Happened Yet" might as well be the marching orders for our next ill-documented preemptive strike.

Who needs The War of the Worlds when we've got the never-ending war on terror?
