The trailer looks terrific. What un-civil war in suburbia might look like.

Might hit a little close to home for my taste. Hmmm...

Looks quite a bit like the novel “Lights Out”

Excellent trailer.

The perfect plan would be to nuke your enemy such that your warheads land about 10 minutes before the cosmic event. Any retaliation by your enemy would be muted by the event, and then they would be back in the Stone Age.

Don’t put that plan past North Korea, etc.

just saying.

Thanks!

Guess this means Morris is The Bad Guy.

[PGR88]

Is Sean Penn playing Morris?

Reminds me of the old bomb shelter days and the stories created. I fear this is on the horizon though.

As the tagline states: “Keep the Faith!”

The development buzzes with activity as they pool their skills and supplies, create stockpiles of food to be rationed, work out hunting and gardening systems, develop a defensive perimeter. Soon, they’re having fun and bonding in ways they never did when they were reliant on mindless entertainment – now they’re enjoying each other’s company in a more pure way than ever before.

Communism -- it can fix anything! It's not just for whole countries anymore, just ask your HOA!

looks interesting.

There are a few EMP-based novels out today. I think it reflects a meme, namely the growing unease about our near-total dependence on the power grid and our gadgets to support our modern population.

Apparently a massive solar flare hit North America just prior to the Civil War. It was so powerful that the embryonic power grid and telegraph infrastructure were fried. Extrapolating from the power of that solar event, scientists say that the same event today would lead to a “Lights Out” or “Remnants” scenario. And such massive solar events happen every century or two.

IOW, we're due. Maybe. Something to ponder.

Nope--that's too early. They will see the nukes coming, and launch themselves. Given the electronic nature of nukes, there is no "good" time to launch without getting nuked yourself.
