This is the scary version of WHERE WERE YOU WHEN THE LIGHTS WENT OUT--with a bit of THE ANDERSON TAPES mixed in for good measure. Four nuts take over a posh Manhattan apartment building during the NYC blackout. They pillage and sack the place, apartment by apartment, until stopped by police. The low-budget meller has some very good photography, a lean script, and cameos by well-known actors. You won't remember much of the picture because you've seen it all elsewhere in one form or another. Allyson, Aumont and Milland are all excellent; and Mitchum is particularly strong in his role. leave a comment
