Not sure if this would count as 'campy', but it's very famous and certainly a product of its time...

(We in Britain had a rather sinister one later on called 'Protect And Survive', which scared the crap out of most people!)

Even some from the '80s and '90s when I went to school would seem campy to today's kids. I remember how one video from 1978 in the mid-90s was warned by the teacher as old, and I could see its campiness. But the pre-'60s ones are by far the campiest! But what irks me the most was the sexual education videos of the time, and often provide a good realistic view of the era compared to how its been portrayed since the '70s.

Around 4:00-4:30 they don't seem to be moving fast...lol!
It must have been a rather scary time, and I know what that's like during the early days of post 9-11, but I'll have to admit that I was laughing during several parts of this film.
