Shockwaves

I love B movies, more than the yearly "blockbusters" which tend to be reheated leftovers. But B movies? That's my jam. However, this? This was even too bad for me. I don't like to rag on actors, since they're doing what the director wants. But these folks were just amazingly bad. Therefore the director must have been, too. The script and delivery were horrid and, as others have mentioned, the "special" effects were something a bright first-grader could conjure. I don't want to add spoilers for the brave souls who will still want to watch this dog's dinner, but do yourself a favor - paint a wall and watch it dry. Much more scintillating.

The volume balancing throughout this was utterly absurd. I only let this play through as I was doing something else and was too busy to change it. My mistake.

So many moments of "you're about to die and all you can do is deadpan "oh no"?

I've been to the Nevada desert. The sand had more personality than the cast.

If I were involved in this movie I'd petition to have this entire thing destroyed. Every trace. I'd be mortified.

I love me a good natural (... Ish) disaster movie but dear lord this was so dry it made my fish thirsty. My plants wilted. My hamster hid in her own bunker praying for me to end it. I'm surprised the cat didn't try to attack the TV. My big dog kept fleeing the room, even he, the giant love bug he is, felt the vicarious humiliation of being involved in something that should have been deleted from all hard drives and film before ever being released to the public. I'm going to have to take him to therapy.

The scenery of the 1 square mile where this was filmed was nice English countryside. Rolling hills. And the opening scene called one such large hill a "mountain". I laughed so hard that should have been a hint. I live at the bottom of one of the mountains on the Blue Ridge Parkway, calling that large hill a mountain was ... Entertaining. That's about all that was entertaining.

Seriously, everyone involved should be thoroughly ashamed and NEVER put this on a CV or film list. Ugh.

Awful.

Don't even bother watching. The acting was horrible and like the "actors" couldn't even be bothered to half ass attempt to care about this movie.

The special effects were done badly and the earthquake was equal to people just shaking in their place.

Even if those two aspects were bad but the story line was good you maybe could excuse it, but the story was awful and boring. This wasn't even a movie you know will be bad but you watch it to laugh at.

Even if the budget for this movie was $100 dollars they spent $99 to many for what they got!

Save yourself the trouble and stare at a blank wall for more entertainment.

Were the actors asleep during the entire filming? F/X were apparently done by someone's 3 year old on an ancient PC running Windows 3. There was a splash of blood at one point that I was sure was someone's ketchup packet accidentally spilled on the film and they just left it in because it was the only semi-realistic effect throughout the entire atrocity. Editing and continuity were afterthoughts, if even present at all. If you insist on watching this drivel, do it for the scenery. That was the only part they couldn't screw up. Do yourself a favor, don't watch this. Look, I'm sorry for the harsh words, and you can blame it on being American, and a steady diet of over-the-top summer blasters, but this seriously needed a major input of caffeine for everyone involved.

My God! If Ed Wood were reincarnated as a gorilla with a space helmet for a head he could not make a movie as bad as this! Basically a snuff film on meth pretending to be a disaster movie. Multiple characters wander on screen just so they can get killed off in sometimes repetitive ways, while the main characters look for dumb things they can do before doing even dumber things. The sound quality is, literally, an oxymoron. The cinematography is good, where it isn't spoiled by the presence of the cast. Might have made a good 15 minute travelogue of wherever the hell this was filmed (the Scottish Highlands? The Transylvanian Alps? Mordor?) and I might have saved an hour of my life that I will never get back!
