METEOR
0 STARRING:
Sean Connery, Natalie Wood, Karl Malden, Brian Keith, Martin
Landau, Trevor Howard
That is before the genre made a semi-comeback in the 1990s with Twister and Independence Day. The producers probably thought that giving Meteor a sci-fi flavour (remember this was made soon after Star Wars when sci-fi meant big bucks) with a lame story about a giant meteor about to hit the earth would draw the crowds. Well, it didn't. The film is one of the largest box office duds ever made - and with reason! Except
for a spectacular mud slide, little of the allegedly lavish
budget can be seen on screen. In fact the special effects are
atrocious and the dim-witted storyline rehashing all the disaster
movie clichés is even more so. Avoid.
