mjarvis0 I might be easy to please but I found this to be an okay film. Being a fan of the 'Disaster film' I was pleasantly surprised by the quality of the special effects. However let us be honest the plot as with most disaster movies is thus. One person sees the disaster coming and the rest do not. His/her personal life is a mess but the disaster does bring the family closer together. I know their are some of you that are reaching for the sick bag, but hey that is the formula for disaster movies so get used to it. At least in this movie we did not have the cute children caught up in the disaster. I am probably a romantic so if the right guy gets the girl and the bad guy gets his just desserts then I am happy and that was I got with this film. The important question? Is this film good enough for my DVD collection ( that is assuming it was available)? yes but only at a real bargain price.
mark Why can't there be better TV movies made I was at a loose end today and watched this film on a satellite channel in the UK. What a terrible waste of my time it was . Poor sets, Poor acting & Oh my god what a terrible flood . Blimey that woman can even outrun a torrent of water too!.I really wish that people would make TV movies using better effects, better or at least more believable plots & far better acting. Killer Flood is well up there with poor acting. A few bits of ham couldn't act any worse.1 final thing I really agree with the comment about the dog, but I believe it would of already scarpered in real life!
davidcsk Got to watch this last night after recording it a few days ago. Quite a good show I must say, even though the plot is shallow and predictable. The visual effects were quite impressive for a made-for-TV movie. The stars were not very popular except for one, who I last saw him in prime-time series many years ago on local station. There were moments of adrenalin pumping on certain scenes that kept us glued to our seats. The view of the dam overlooking the town below was breathtaking. There was a movie a few years ago which depicted a killer flood too, but can't remember the title. They were more of night scenes than day scenes, which was quite forgettable, so Killer Flood is better. Overall, a good attempt. Two thumbs up!!
gilez66857 This movie awesome. The special effects are so real looking. The storyline was spot on, but how many times has this plot has this same plot been done? Mayor's hubby aka town reject warns the town of there impending doom. nobody trusts him, then, ta da! the town goes bye-bye. It happened in Dante's Peak (well, the reject was the mayors hubby, he was " just a friend") still i loved it.
