My storm-chasing, meteorologist partner made me watch this movie. I knew it was going to be cheesy, but I REALLY hoped it would be deliberately bad and campy like Sharknado. Spoiler alert: it was not. It was just really, really bad. The acting was uniformly bad in a way that makes me think the director was bad at his job, the premise was simply stupid, and the effects (lightning, rain) were lame. Everyone was a caricature, and none of the characters were sympathetic or even likeable in any way. It was just BAD. There were so many plot holes and things that required you to suspend disbelief - but the movie wasn't worth that effort in the first place. They had misspellings on maps, clearly made-up town names that were laughable, medical backstories that were implausible and...really, just bad. Bad bad bad. The only saving grace is that this movie was short. The only surprise? - FOUR people survive in the end, instead of one. Oh, and a woman wakes up from a months-long coma to defeat the killer and walk and talk like muscles don't atrophy during a coma. Come on!
