The Left has spent years downplaying America’s biggest vulnerabilities.
They’ve ignored warnings from experts about catastrophic threats to our national security.
And this devastating weapon that could end America in seconds just caught Hollywood’s attention.
Hollywood brings America’s worst nightmare to the big screen
A new film adaptation is set to expose one of the most devastating threats facing America that the political establishment has refused to take seriously.
MPI Original Films announced they’re bringing William R. Forstchen’s bestselling novel One Second After to theaters nationwide.
The movie will show audiences exactly what happens when America’s enemies unleash an electromagnetic pulse attack that could literally end civilization as we know it in the blink of an eye.
"One Second After offers a realistic look at a weapon and its awesome power to destroy the entire United States, literally within one second," according to the announcement from Ascot Media Group.
The film follows college professor and former military officer John Matherson as he tries to protect his family after an EMP attack paralyzes the entire country.
With the nation’s power grid destroyed, planes crashing from the sky, and all modern technology rendered useless, society collapses into chaos within hours.
Director Scott Rogers and acclaimed screenwriter J. Michael Straczynski will helm the project, which begins production in September in Bulgaria.
Forstchen, who serves as executive producer, has been warning about this exact scenario for years.
"The story’s exploration of our dependence on technology and the potential consequences of its sudden loss is more relevant than ever," Forstchen explained.
America’s power grid remains a sitting duck for our enemies
What makes this film particularly chilling is how realistic the threat actually is.
An EMP attack involves detonating a nuclear weapon high in the atmosphere above the United States.
The electromagnetic pulse would instantly fry every electronic device across the country – from cars and planes to hospitals and water treatment facilities.
Forstchen, who holds a doctoral degree from Purdue University with a specialization in military history and technology, has spent decades studying this threat.
"I believe the threat of America being hit by an EMP weapon is the single greatest danger to our survival," Forstchen warned. "Electricity is the fundamental building block of our society. Everything is predicated on electrification."
The expert has been consulted by federal, state, and local governments about EMP threats and has spoken at conferences across the United States trying to raise awareness.
But Washington, D.C. politicians have largely ignored these warnings while wasting trillions on Green New Deal fantasies instead of hardening America’s electrical infrastructure.
China, Russia, Iran, and North Korea all possess the capability to launch such an attack.
A successful EMP strike would send America back to the 1800s overnight, with no way to restore power for months or even years.
The Left refuses to prepare America for this nightmare scenario
Set in the peaceful hills of North Carolina, One Second After shows how quickly civilized society breaks down when the lights go out permanently.
Within days of the attack, millions of Americans are stranded as desperate travelers flood the highways looking for food, water, and shelter.
Hospitals can’t function without power, leaving patients to die.
Water treatment plants shut down, creating a public health crisis.
Food spoils in refrigerators and grocery stores while supply chains collapse completely.
The novel spawned three sequels, each exploring how an EMP attack would devastate American society based on cold, hard facts about our vulnerabilities.
But the Biden-Harris administration spent four years focused on climate change hysteria instead of addressing real threats to American security.
They poured hundreds of billions into unreliable wind and solar projects that would make America even more vulnerable to an EMP attack.
Meanwhile, our enemies have been developing and testing EMP weapons while America sleeps.
Hollywood finally tackles a threat politicians won’t discuss
Forstchen’s expertise on EMP technology has made him one of the nation’s foremost authorities on this catastrophic threat.
The New York Times bestselling author and Professor of History at Montreat College has written over 50 books exploring military history and technology.
He’s been interviewed on Fox News, C-SPAN, and numerous other outlets about security threats facing America.
One Second After will force audiences to confront the reality that America’s entire way of life hangs by a thread.
One nuclear weapon detonated 200 miles above Kansas could plunge the entire continental United States into darkness within seconds.
Without electricity, most Americans would die within the first year from starvation, disease, or violence as society collapses.
The film adaptation comes at a critical time when tensions with China, Russia, and Iran continue to escalate.
President Donald Trump has promised to rebuild America’s military and strengthen our defenses against all threats.
But the damage from four years of Democrat weakness will take time to repair.
One Second After will serve as a wake-up call for Americans who have no idea how vulnerable our nation really is to this devastating attack.
The movie is scheduled to begin production in September in Sofia, Bulgaria, with more details available at onesecondafter.com.
Americans deserve to know the truth about the threats we face – even if Hollywood has to be the one to tell them.
