1970's film people disappeared into salt?

[veryscared]

Hi, newbie here!  I saw a movie, only part of it remains with me.  1970's movie, all I can remember is that people are survivors of something, and they come back home to find everyone has dissolved into salt?  Their clothes are where they stood or laid and there is some sort of powder/salt where their body was.  Help?

OMG!  I did some searching on here and I think I found it!!!!  Where Have All the People Gone (1974)!!!!  Does that sound right????

This could be NIGHT OF THE COMET: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0087799/plotsummary

If the powder left behind by the dissolved people was white, like salt, I agree that this is probably "Where Have All the People Gone."  The timeframe (1970s) also fits better than "Night of the Comet."

Night of the Comet is on a lot on some channel.  It's not that.  It is "Where have all the people gone".  I've never actually watched Night of the Comet, maybe I should....

Yeah Night of the Comet is tight. Also Where have all the People Gone, was made for TV, so I don't really consider it a true movie
