  • truly awful in almost every way except for Colby...

    I didn't realize that this ultra low budget laugher was made in 1997 when Corben Bernsen did his best to hold in that burgeoning midriff. He looked truly miserable in the wetsuit surfing scenes riding some scary 2 foot swells. Obviously those were not the tidal waves. I can understand as the cast was saddled with one of the worst screenplays ever, silly junk science gibberish and cheesy effects. The only actors to phone in credible performances were Harve Presnell as the hilariously over-the-top Snidely Whiplash-ish Stanley Schiff who was making the tidal waves happen and Colby the dog, who sadly gets snuffed out by a tidal wave.

  • Michael Crichton is rolling over in his bed...

    ...with bad dreams of this pathetic remake of the classic original by Robert Wise. I kept watching, stabbing at the mute so I could avoid watching the same inane, and frequent commercials. It got worse the closer we got to the climax. It's not that the acting was so bad, it's just that the new plot twists were ridiculous and the special effects budget must have been a couple of hundred bucks. When the thumb throw sequence happened, that was it, just way too silly. Or maybe it was the rat bite on the pooping butt? Or was it the cheesy orange wave of Andromeda over the landscapes and in the rivers? Or the red magic marker lines on the faces on the infected? You get the idea.
