I recently rewatched Steven Spielberg’s War of the World’s, and I was amazed at the amount of tension and sheer desperation there was in the movie for the characters. From the bizarre electrical storm to the seemingly unstoppable tripods wrecking havoc.
That sense of unease and not knowing what exactly is going on, followed by just a desperate attempt to survive. I want some stories like that. Something that will give me the same feeling of, “what the hell is happening?” until it all pops off

It’s adapted from a book so you can always start there!
There’s also {{The Day of the Triffids}}. I omagin many Wyndham novels have a similar vibe.
{{Footfall by Larry Niven and Jerry Pournelle}}
