Hurricane (1979)



The desperate love affair between a young Samoan chief and an American painter, against the will of her father, but amid this man-made tension comes a hurricane so devastating, the lives of the lovers and the entire island are imperiled.

From memory: Pretty bad catastrophe movie with very poor special effetcs and the star cast laid to waste.

Halliwell (no star): "A remake of the 1937 film, lacking the style, the innocence, and even the technical splendor."

Maltin BOMB: "Look what just blew in: a $22 million remake of the 1937 classic that may well put you to sleep!"
