Catnado

For a movie titled "Catnado", there's a definite shortage of cats - and an abundance of cats really is the only thing that could have redeemed this litterbox full of turds.

The 90+ minute film is broken up into 6 or 7 stories, but even so, it still manages to be insufferably boring and about 90 minutes too long.

Yes, it's a spoof and is meant to be ridiculous, but spoofs are also supposed to make fun - and therefore be funny - not bore you to death.

While some movies are so bad (whether intentionally or not) that they become amusing, this isn't one of them; It's just plain bad. Easily one of the worst movies I've ever seen.

I had been looking forward to watching this movie ever since I first saw the poster revealed. Sure, I didn't harbor an ounce of expectations to the movie, but I still opted to watch the movie on the off-chance that it would prove to be a entertaining movie, or a movie that was so phenomenally bad that it proved to be fun to watch.

As it turned out, not surprisingly so, this movie was a catastrophe, pardon the pun. First of all, it was an anthology, and those rarely fare well. "Catnado" was not about to deviate from the usual fare of anthologies, and this was a questionable dumpster fire of a movie. Writers Blake Blasko, Curtis Everitt, Donald Farmer, Blair Kelly, Stephanie E. Kelly, James M. Myers, Melvin Pittman, Tim Ritter, Serena Salieri and Jerry Williams didn't exactly manage to put together something enjoyable here. It was cringeworthy to sit through on so many levels.

The acting performances in "Catnado" were all over the place; some of the performers were fully and wholly stripped of acting talents, whereas other performers actually had a shred of talent to them. Needless to say that I wasn't familiar with a single actor or actress in this anthology. And usually I enjoy watching movies with unfamiliar talents on the screen, but there simply was nothing to enjoy about this 2022 movie.

There was one good thing about "Catnado" and that was some woman being interviewed and managing to do the interview in the style of that video with a lady being interviewed in real life some years ago and someone made an autotune song out of her titled "Backing Up". The female actor in the movie here had her speech pattern, voice and mannerisms nailed down to the point where it was actually fun to watch and listen to.

Visually then this was bad. The movie didn't even have proper effects, which would have salvaged it from being a total and utter dumpster fire. The effects were very low budget and looked ridiculous most of the time.

"Catnado" is a terrible movie. And worse yet, is that it isn't even bad in a way that it becomes fun to watch. No, "Catnado" is just a downright horrible movie. Don't bother wasting you time, money or effort on this dung heap; some of us did so you don't have to, you're very welcome.

My rating of this anthology from directors Curtis Everitt, Donald Farmer, Alaine Huntington, Blair Kelly, James M. Myers, Melvin Pittman, Tim Ritter, Jerry Williams and Logan Winton lands on a generous one out of ten stars.

We sat down to watch this film hoping that it would be truly awful, and we were not disappointed. The special effects generated on windows 95 were amazing and I could probably find more convincing acting in my local mortuary. There were ups and downs, jump scares and some tears, and we have been left in a permanent state of PTSD from the intensity of this amazing peice of cinematography. . My mate Sylvia threw her cat out the window to see if it flew, but unfortunately that was not to be the case. I hope Cat-nado 2 is just as cat-astrophic and scares he whiskers off of us soon, as this was truly a masterpiece of modern history. I think this is one of the greatest films ever made Also, Ssoft waffle.

I love a good "bad" indie horror film, but Catnado is just bad!

The DVD artwork itself is pretty cool! It looks like we're getting "Sharknado", but with cats. Unfortunately the movie itself doesn't remotely resemble the cover art.

It pains to give this movie such a low rating. I have typically enjoyed the Donald Farmer movies that I have seen, like I said I enjoy indie horror and I typically keep my expectations in check, but Catnado just doesn't have the elements that I typically enjoy in these types of movies. The cheesy special effects are there, but much of the humor falls flat and the movie just isn't interesting. I suppose breaking things up into 6-7 segments that are written and directed by 6-7 people is part of the issue.

Catnado just doesn't go anywhere. There isn't a strong leading actor or actress to carry the film. Rebecca Rinehart is wasted in a brief role at the beginning of the film. There's so many great actors and actresses on the indie scene today. If they would have brought in some more recognizable names it might have given the film a bit more personality and in turn would have made for a more enjoyable film. A stronger cast could have potentially put this in 5-6 star territory.

If you're not a fan of indie horror you can probably pass this one up with no regrets. If you are a fan of indie horror proceed with caution.

This movie is the number one, most emotional, and truly stunning piece of media in cinema history. I think everybody deserves the chance to witness this beautifully crafted artwork of a film. From the bottom of my heart, thank you WildEye Studios for this masterpiece.

Honestly, I can't stop thinking about this film... the deaths, the cats, the heartbreak. It all so much for one to handle. But it takes a lot not to cry at such amazingly built scenes, realistic CGI, and epic acting. One of my top three movies. Right above Birdemic and Velocipastor.

I truly wish I could have seen this in cinemas. And I hope that one day, there will be a sequel, it would make all my dreams come true if me and all the loyal fans of this movie if we could just see more! Catnado is such a creative work and the different plotlines make for an interesting story that it's impossible to be bored while watching.

Anybody that tells you different about this movie has clearly never witnessed pure artistic talent. This movie is perfect, it has such a dramatic and unique style. Truly a masterpiece.

I love this movie.

-Sincerely, Catnado's Number One Fan.
