Jay A Pro-christian horror? Not sure what happened here. Bad, not scary at all. Rated 0.5/5 Stars •  Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 10/29/24 Full Review Chris F Shannon is excellent in his role and the descent his character takes is really well done. My main gripe is the ending - which I do not think is bad, just not what I wanted. Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 08/27/24 Full Review efasd f Looked visually a tad flat, but the performances are brilliant and it works very well. As long as you don't expect a disaster movie, this is recommended.

Rated 1.5/5 Stars •  Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 08/05/24 Full Review Bry G I believe this movie is beautifully gift wrapped for all who understand it. There's lots of potentially excellent things to learn from this. The wife and child who are almost god sent, the wife forgives him and understands what he's going through and tried to support him through both the possibility of schizophrenia, as well as believing him when the first manageable storm happened. She guided him through his fear to open the door out of the shelter. In the end we are left with the cliffhanger of the storm actually taking place while they went to myrtle beach and is at that moment on the required medication- makes you wonder, did it happen for real in this story? Or are we to think he's having the schizophrenic episode. The movie represents how hard it is to reach out about your medical history and find out what is wrong. Same as this community in this day and age we don't have all the resources to get the help we need. He had to travel far, and there was quite an expense for the psychiatrist. The family struggled to keep up with the bills at this point and obviously had to put aside the daughter's cochlear implantation aside due to job/benefit loss. The love the family has is so beautiful you just want nothing more than for the family to be together hope that curtis's episodes don't break them. I love this movie and the lengths that the father went to, to ensure the family was safe, even if it was all delusions.. he didn't do the town folk any harm by building a bigger storm shelter. I have so much to say it's all coming out in a big blurb, sorry. My favourite part was when Dewart attacked Curtis and had the outburst, he began to cry.. and the wife and daughter still latched onto him. If that storm did happen, it could lead into a whole new apocalypse movie. If it didn't, I'd pray the sequel would be a docu style about how they made curtis's schizophrenia more manageable, to better inspire the world how to reach out when they were dealing with similar symptoms of schizophrenia and to raise awareness..
