Condominium

Barbara Eden and Steve Forrest star in this TV-movie about the citizens living in a "Condominium," whose inevitable fate as rubble is both tragic and perversely fascinating, just like a car wreck. An array of 1970s and 1980s stars have roles here, such as Ana-Alicia, Richard Anderson and Dan Haggerty and many others, and character actor Ralph Bellamy is seen to good advantage. But this rides mostly on the anticipation of the action. The two-dimensional characters and silly dialogue give this a campy feel in the beginning, but, as you feel the calm before the storm, you are swept up in another world with these people and their real important problems. Yeah! Some people just don't listen when told to leave, as the condominium won't withstand the oncoming storm, due to age and a bad foundation. But all in all, I think by the end you'll feel entertained by the whole spectacle and its unashamed simplicity! 8/10!

Very good movie - would love to have a copy of it. I wish it would be shown again on TV. Barbara Eden and Dan Haggerty did good jobs of acting in this movie and it was a great addition to the natural disaster theme movie genre.

All star cast. Multiple layers of characters. You have your millionaires living along side people struggling to get by. You had hurricanes, crooks, relationship issues, stubborn, hard headed tenants, compassionate people. Very good story line. Great for the time period.

Yes it's cheap and nasty, but you get to see a big apartment building destroyed by lots of water - that's surely worth viewing in itself! Watch it, it is enjoyable 'tacky' fun.

I saw it back in 1980. The plot was little better than what one would expect on an Aaron Spelling TV program. The eye candy was the best part, especially when Pamela Hensley is in this black bathing suit that compliments her body.
