DVD Reviews of Category 6 - Day of Destruction
DVD Review: This movie was a DESTRUCTION!
Summary: 1 Stars
I rented this at my local Blockbuster quite by accident,I know there was a disaster movie that went straight to video recently but I couldn't remember the name...now I remember,it was "Post Impact" so I thought that this movie was it. Okay my bad. But even though I figured this out when I got home (after watching this)I was was not surprised that this movie was total GARBAGE!
First of all the big names in this movie were: Brian Denihey(sorry if I spelled that wrong)who just starred in the new "Assault on precinct 13", Randy Quaid (as A Storm Chaser who is so stupid it's a crime)and Nancy McKeon...from "The Facts of life?!" Nancy Mckeon has way too much powder foundation on her face, and Brian Denihey looks like his clothes have too much starch in them (His Blazer jacket looked like the hanger was still in it)then to top it he's wearing suspenders, and most of all, he looks like he's on medication and half the time he looks weary,and sleepy...like he couldn't wait for production to wrap up for the day.
Neither names did anything for this movie even in terms of creditablity for this so called "authentic" Disaster movie...
this was actually a TV movie! I figured this out when I noticed the super long pauses where commercials would be inserted in between each "climatic" scene..and there were absolutely no curse words, or nothing.
How can this be in the State of Chicago when everyone had a Canadian accent? Believe me I know a Canadian accent when I hear it.
There was absolutely NO sense of urgency as you would expect in a disaster movie. It kept saying "day 2, day, 5" before this so called Storm of the century is supposed to hit...
There were a few CHEEEEEEZY subplots into the lives of a few people that no one could care less about...a young teenage girl gets a new "bad boy" boyfriend that has a gun, robs a store...and comes out with 3 Slurpees....then runs around the corner literally, and no one chases him or does anything about it.
Teengirl gets tired of the "Bad boy image" and wants out of the "relationship". In the midst of the emergency he snaps and holds a store in the mall hostage with her and her mother in it.
Her father who is in charge of some department of electricity or something (who looks EXACTLY like Bruce Campbell in The Evil Dead)is having an affair with his newly assigned co-worker...his wife finds out about it because the "Script" says so (no indication but she suddenly knows because he defended his co-worker in a public discussion about the storm)
A jet pilot is off on a mission while his pregnant wife is trapped in an elevator in her building with a Bohemian old lady that doesn't give to figs about much....You know there has to be the "Obligatory" "I think I'm gonna have the baby now" chatter...and she goes into labor...this is tired and old for disaster movies now...why can't it be that someone is in need of medication in a certain amount of time or will die?
When the Storm does hit all you see is Stock footage from The Weather channel,the CGI effects look like students were working on it for a class project. The Airplanes, and even the trackter trailer truck in the beginning looked fake.
With the addition of A whole bunch of broken glass, and that's it.
I couldn't believe that 2 and a half hours anticipation for something devastating would amount to nothing.
This movie is not recommended at all.
