Not a movie, but a book you can read or listen to on Audible.

"One Second After" This will blow your mind and get your prepper juices flowing. It is fiction but based on real dangers and certain consequences that the US is 100% vulnerable to. The forward was written by Newt Gingrich and this book will scare the hell out of you and make you think about what would happen if all the sudden the lights went out and didn't come back on... No cell phones, no internet, no planes, no communication for an extended period. The rapid devolving of modern technological society.
Sounds like it would be right up my alley, I'll check this out. Like I need any more encouragement on the prepper thing wife already thinks I'm crazy. Big zombie movie fan too incidentally...

Love me zombies too. If you haven’t already, check out Chris Philbrook’s “Adrian’s Undead Diary” on Kindle or Prime books. That guy is a freaking genius and hilarious AF!!!

Watch the tv show Dark on Netflix. And get a notebook out to keep track of who is when and how they are when. An absolute mind bomb.

I’ll say the prestige is a mind blower is you really pay attention to it. Donnie Darko, Fight Club, Shutter Island, Inception are a few others.

But Dark. Big time mind trip.

Check out ”The Rider”.

”After suffering a near fatal head injury, a young cowboy undertakes a search for new identity and what it means to be a man in the heartland of America.”

There is a deep side to the movie with a lesson to be taught, but also some comedy, and the cinematography is unique.

Just for something way different than other suggestions......By todays movie standards and cinematography probably nothing exciting but I always found the story to be intriguing and thought provoking. So many stories inside of stories and surprises within, that even as a teenager when I first saw it I was compelled to watch it again and again to make certain I didn't miss anything. Quite possibly a difficult watch for people these days as it not a flashy/exciting film.

Another might be the ORIGINAL 1975 version of Rollerball with James Caan and John Houseman. Industrial control set in the 'future' [2018....]. Never saw the remake and do not intend on it.
