Just attrocious in every way possible. Beyond belief.

Horrendous excuse of a movie. Script, acting and special FX are worst I have ever seen. There are movies from the 60s that had better FX. Main actor dude was just utterly embarrasing.

Typically bad

A typical B-movie disaster flick. Our intrepid renegade heroes try to convince the disbelieving authorities of their plan to no avail. The heroine is a random washed up B-movie actress so plenty of in-jokes and self-referencing. Cheesy CGI effects and an action climax. Don't bother.

Erotic Eruption ... !

WHY is it that most earthquakes, eruptions (not to mention warewolves, vampires etc) all appear in the Los Angeles area, and usially just around the corner from a film studio ?

This waste of effort is a typical example, with the added spice of bad acting, bad effects and just about bad everything else !

I just hope tha Frankenhouse, Slack & Szew got some of their money back ...

It's terrible but I still enjoyed it

OK so bottom line - this isn't a very good film. That's mainly down to the special effects admittedly, but not entirely. Some of the performances are decent (Tom Schanley is particularly good and believable) but unfortunately some really aren't.

That said, despite it not being a good film I still enjoyed it. If you can ignore the terrible effects, clearly done on a very strict budget, then it's a fun disaster movie. Most disaster movies are best watched with your brain mostly turned off anyway, and that's the best way to watch this one too.

both liked it and didnt like it that well

For starts and all these are just my own opinions it was a mild rip of of "Volcano" at times the acting was pretty bad and boring. the special effects were not special at all and pretty bad even for a B movie. tho on the upside. it had a decent plot and decent storyline. not badly written and had a few amusing lines in it. so not bad for in background type of movie.
