which is actually better than just plain bad, like Shark Attack, which preceded it.

One minute the surf is calm, next minute it's blasting thru windows (with, of course, sharks being swept thru those same windows), next exterior shot the surf is calm. One minute the camera focuses in on doomsday clouds, next minute the sky overhead is blue, horrendous rains one shot, the next they're driving on dry streets throwing up dust, school bus is stalled out in 18" of water yet sharks bigger than Jaws are swimming around it and underwater shots of the sharks show water that has to be 12' deep, minimum, a one litre propane bottle rigged to explode, dropped by a helicopter flying into the middle of a tornado "equalizes" the temperature variance (said variance, of course, causes tornados) and effectively extinguishes them......the list goes on forever.

It's got a ways to go, tho, to top the ne plus ultra of awesomely bad, Mega Piranha.

  What a piece of crap network. Shitty movies with too many commercials along the AMC model. How do people watch these channels? I'd rather watch classic sci-fi on TCM w/o commercials. Earth V Flying Saucers, Them et al. I do see the Twilight Zones once in a while. The originals that is. I don't like the 80's ones at all.

    X The Unkown. If it's in Black and White, I probably like it.

  as it was, which was hideously awful.
  
  Director has a sense of humor tho, there's a thread at IMBD called - Ask the Director a question (or some such), son of a gun answered all of them, except my - "Reallllyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy?"
