4 Horsemen: Apocalypse

When I stumbled upon this 2022 movie titled "4 Horsemen: Apocalypse", I have to admit that I was immediately drawn to the movie's cover/poster. It looked really good. But at the same time I had that voice at the back of my head going 'low budget disaster movie'. But as this movie from writers Geoff Meed, Lauren Pritchard and Joe Roche, being a movie that I hadn't already seen, of course I opted to watch it.

And when I saw the two dreaded words, The Asylum, pop up on the screen, then expectations went from some to none. Yeah, The Asylum isn't really known for the top notch movies, though they do have some fair enough movies among their catalogue.

Truth be told, then "4 Horsemen: Apocalypse" embodied everything that summarizes The Asylum; amazingly dubious and stupid storyline, natural disasters that seem to single in on a small group of people, questionable CGI effects, rigid acting, overly predictable storyline. So yeah, at least you know what you are getting here. But "4 Horsemen: Apocalypse" is a bad movie, a really, really bad movie.

The storyline in "4 Horsemen: Apocalypse" was just laughably bad. And it simply amazes me that three writers could collectively put together such a heap of rubbish, and presumably not even one went 'wait a minute, this is just out of control'. In fact, I would actually go as far as saying that "4 Horsemen: Apocalypse" is a top contender for being one of the worst movies from The Asylum.

I wasn't familiar with the cast ensemble in the movie, aside from Dominique Swain. And truth be told, then it is just very difficult to take her serious in the role of a military officer. And her wooden performance in "4 Horsemen: Apocalypse" just didn't help win me over.

Now, "4 Horsemen: Apocalypse" is a natural disaster movie of sorts, so of course having proper special effects and CGI is crucial. But the special effects in "4 Horsemen: Apocalypse" were a disaster in themselves, even for a movie from The Asylum then this was bad.

My rating of "4 Horsemen: Apocalypse" lands on a one out of ten stars.

So, global End of The World: earthquakes, storms, even locusts.

The basic setup in the movie itself is: 12 hours until a volcano will errupt so big in Barzil, it'll blow up the world. What causes this? Mushrooms. Mushrooms, that will be finished of with an oxygen-destroyer.

On the technical side the movie is not bad, kinda what you can expect from the budget (point for using some cheap drone to make some shots), and acting is actualy good. But the mushrooms stomp all. Mushrooms that cause earthquakes. It's not even funny, because the movie takes itself seriously.

Oh, and the 4 horsemen? Entirely clickbait. Someone halllucinates them, once, because of mushrooms.

Hahahaha, I think one actor said this line at least 10 times in first 30 minutes of the movie. So so bad movie... I am so sorry I watched this. I should check and read other reviews before. I can't believe is possible to record something so bad in 2022.

I hate when people take advantage of the audience.

Stupid acting and poor everything.

It looks like one day movie Donot watch ..... :( :( :(..........................................................................

Its a stupid movie done so bad its not even remotely good just like all the old syfy movies, that is what makes me like it so much, sometimes "B" movies is what we need, we need stupid to escape the politics, and real world issues where all tired of. Acting is not the best, camera work isnt the best, story needs work but all in all i enjoyed it for the stupidity that it brought. This movie is not the worst i have seen. I have seen far far worse on syfy. So give it a watch if you miss those syfy original days.

Are we sure SYFY didnt do this one?

Go into this movie knowing its a "B" movie and the stupid wont bother you any at all.
