The Twilight Zone: The Shelter (1961)
Episode 3, Season 3
As Prescient and Timeless As Ever - Just as the People in Hawaii Today

This episode is timeless - and prescient. Just ask the people in Hawaii today (Jan 13, 2018) after their "Nuclear Attack Is Imminent! This is not a Drill!" broadcast scare. Initial stories of a panicked people tearing down streets at 100mph, breaking into shelters... more and more stories will surface as the inevitable investigations proliferate. But Rod Serling got it right back in 1961 and showed what people turn into, and are capable of, when faced with their own imminent demise. Perhaps there will be a movie out of this (Hawaii false nuclear attack), but remember, you heard it here first: Rod Serling, 1961 "The Shelter".
