I just saw a small preview on Fox & Friends of a disaster movie coming on Sunday on The National Geographic channel.
In it cyber criminals (terrorists) cut the electrical grid and folks have to survive without power for an extended period of time.
Might be a good watch, I've already made myself a note and hopefully the movie will be a good one.
Oh, it's called "American Blackout".

I'm kinda looking forward to it. And Yeah I hope it's worth watching as well, for a number of reasons. Hopefully, being on Nat Geo, it will have been done the right way.

Definitely set the DVR to record; either The Walking Dead or American Blackout! Watch one while the other is recording.

I wonder if the book One Second After inspired it or the Revolution series on NBC.
One Second After would make an excellent miniseries.

I am without power so often I thought that you were asking what movie to watch DURING the outing.

Pretty good movie. Don't want to spoil it for the dvr crowd, but it was very interesting. We can discuss at length later on.
