Just what I expected
There is, somehow, an interesting story here, as well as some good acting. There are also some good scenes
This is a gorgeous movie made by a gorgeous spirit.
The Drake Mining Company is set to make a fortune with discovery of isotope L6 while deep cavern mining. The problem with L6 is that it is explosive with water and seeks out wet items such as people, even people on top of a lake of water...just saying. Only Keven Sorbo, now a seismologist, can save Nevada...or wherever.This is a formula disaster film, one of the lesser quality and lesser known films of prolific writer Jim Wynorski. It barely keeps you engaged.
As an Environmentalist, I appreciate the story,the lesson and the warning about man's continued meddling with Mother Nature, when we'd be better off leaving things alone.Neat concept, good special effects, and let's just hope something like this is never possible.
I have seen a great deal of movies in my day. This is the worst one. The train wreck of it all kept me watching until the end and I was upset with myself for it. You would think that something so unwatchable would somehow become a cult classic. This won't. The acting quality is so pathetic that you just end up feeling sorry for the cast. I would venture a guess that most of them have other full-time jobs. I would recommend this movie to anyone who feels the need to calibrate the audio/visual sensors in their brain to default settings by watching something so ridiculous that it forces a master reset. I watched Kalifornia directly after this film and it was the best movie I had ever seen in my life.
First off, this is not a good movie. Period. It is not a good movie at all. A lot of the acting is sub-par, and some, if not most of the logic is pretty flawed (I'm no scientist, so don't quote me on that...) though the idea of almost-intelligent flames is somewhat neat, and seeing Jamal's fate was actually fairly funny to tell the truth. The very best part of the movie is Mr. Sorbo, (Literally my reaction upon recognizing who it was was to shout "IT'S HERCULES!") and honestly his acting was quite good, but even that isn't enough to bring this movie up beyond a 4. But, still, I have to say that it's not a ~terrible~ movie, but it most definitely is quite bad.
