100 Degrees Below Zero (2013)

The Worst Film Ever

How sad is this?

The joyful confection is coated in a sparkly gloss, bright enough to gleam from the darkest, most cynical corners.

This movie feels like it was made purely to piss off people who want good shows

This movie begins with a volcanic eruption in Iceland which triggers a series of other eruptions and earthquakes all across Europe. The resulting ash emitted from these volcanoes then proceeds to block out the sun which causes a new ice age to develop. While this is occurring a newly-married man named "Steve Foster" (Jeff Fahey) and his wife "Lacey" (Judit Fekete) are flying to London when they realize that they need to get to Paris to rescue Steve's son "Ryan Foster" (Marc McKevitt Ewins) and daughter "Taryn Foster" (Sara Malakul Lane). The story then proceeds to focus on the trouble that both groups have to overcome in order to get to their rendezvous point. Now as far as the overall movie is concerned I must say that trying to capture the magnitude of such an impending disaster was no easy matter. In this specific case the attempt to do so failed quite badly. The special effects were bad and the scenarios weren't very realistic either. In short, those who like disaster films might get some satisfaction out of this one but it certainly isn't one I would recommend to anyone. Accordingly, I rate it as below average.

Asylum Film strike again with another weather disaster film. This was bad but strangely watchable even if it is a stinker. A volcanic eruption in Iceland sends the ash cloud over Europe and experts believe that it will block the sun for maybe 2 years leading to extreme drop in temperatures and rising tides. Already the bad weather is accelerating leading to snow storms that causes widespread disruption and chaos.Jeff Fahey an ace pilot had had his flight diverted to London. He drives through the Channel Tunnel (if that is even possible!) to meet up with his college aged kids, Ryan and Taryn.There is an emergency evacuation for some people to Australia as for some reason that will be immune to the effects of the weather from the blocked sun. Fahey and his family have a place on the plane but need to get to the rendezvous point.The kids need to survive the chaos in Paris as they have planned to meet their parents at the Eiffel Tower. However they lack warm clothing, one person wants to charge 20,000 Euros for each coat. Why does he think he will get a sale at that price? Who has that money in cash?So the kids shiver in Paris when they remember that the post production special effects will add snow so they randomly act cold, when they are not tripping at every opportunity or randomly meet bad guys who want to steal from them. One of them even gets to kick a giant snow ball falling from the sky like a football.The film has the usual cheapo effects that Asylum are known for and an inept script. This time they have even borrowed the incidental music from Doctor Who. Still they have some nice mock up of various European locations and it moves along quickly.Jeff Fahey and John Rhys Davies add some acting dignity to the film.

Shoddy acting is the least of this pictures shortcomings. I would soley blame the director, but it is obviously far beyond that. The only department that didn't utterly botch their job was the costume department. Though I did find it odd that all of the soldiers wore cameo-patterned pajamas.In fact, it would be more at home being the Literary Arts homework of a third-grade boy. The writer, director, and producer of this film ought to be charged under Title 18, Part 1, Chapter 113C, Section 2340 of the US legal code. I have been more entertained mowing my lawn than watching this insult to the industry. Dry pasta has more taste and my vomit has more character. I pray that these men never again work in the industry. This film is too terrible to even be considered for a "bad movie night".

All I can do know is laugh. The acting was terrible. They should have been lovers instead of siblings! For all the time they hugged and jumped on each other (1/2 the movie) every time one fell, geese; I was waiting for the kiss. They also made the male son character so WHIMPY!! Like COME ON MAN, GROW SOME BALLS! So subtract the acting, & The theme of the movie was not so bad. But the plot was extremely disappointing."The only good thing was that it was suspenseful - whether or not the parents and kids will make it to the Eiffel Towel."It had potential but fell flat on its face.
