431.0. "Night of the Twisters" by SWAM1::MEUSE_DA () Mon Feb 19 1996 13:40

    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    Some of the twister scenes, and interior shots of the home 
    being destroyed were quite intense. Everything was being
    sucked out of the house.
    
    Like the kid from L.A. in the movie said, "I'd rather be
    in an earthquake". 
    
    If your home is a target of one of these things, it has to
    be absolute terror.

I chose to watch this, since I'm explicably drawn to all-things-about-tornados, 
but it wasn't very good.  John Schneider didn't get much chance to shine. 
The teenage son was pretty good.  The tornado images were pretty unconvincing, 
I thought, except the one where the car carrying Mrs. So-and-So got swallowed 
up, and the aforementioned scenes at the kid's house.

I did get a little testy when the house was coming apart and the sirens were 
sounding, but the teenager didn't go and get his baby brother.  It was one of 
those things where you keep saying out loud, "Go get your baby brother!!" (to 
the annoyance of other viewers in the room).  :-)
