RED ALERT

RED ALERT. Billy (sic) Hale, dir. USA: Paramount, 1977. Sandor Stern, script, from Paradigm Red by Harold King. William Devane, star. Made for TV.

Very-near-future film relevant here for motif of computer-takeover during a nuclear power plant "excursion" and sabotage attack. Note paralleling of computer Proteus with the human Commander as a "robot" (as Devane's character calls him). Annotation in TV Movies says that much of the film "was photographed at Houston's giant Space Lab and at the NASA Mission Control Center." IMDb lists filming location as Johnson Space Center.
