CRASH LANDING
In this against-all-odds, high-octane action-thriller starring Antonio Sabato Jr. and Michael Paré, a private flight for a billionaire's daughter and her friends becomes a hellish ordeal when the plane is overtaken by a team of terrorists, plotting to hold the billionairess hostage.

But there is one thing the hijackers didn't count on - Major John Masters (Antonio Sabato Jr.), who is also on board. Within a matter of minutes the situation spirals out of control, resulting in a wounded pilot, several dead, and a severely damaged plane. Now, Masters must somehow land the plane on a small Pacific island despite a category five hurricane if they hope to survive - that is if Captain Williams (Michael Paré) and his team can finish the runway in time...

NATURE UNLEASHED: AVALANCHE
In the Ural Mountains of Russia, transplanted Westerners Thom and Jock Cussler take tourists on adventurous snowmobile rides up and down the slopes. When an avalanche heads for their party, their quick thinking saves them all, but a village far below is buried completely. In nearby Kirovina, the brothers convince townsfolk to hide in a mine to save themselves. Thom and Jock then risk their lives attempting to rescue survivors trapped under a mountainside nightclub. They must act fast - the air is running out!

NATURE UNLEASHED: EARTHQUAKE
Josh, a respected engineer, travels to Russia to inspect a nuclear power plant. Coincidentally, his ex-wife Rachel works at the facility and lives nearby with their kids. When Josh arrives at the plant, he leads a group of engineers down to the reactor's core to investigate a possible leak when disaster strikes; a catastrophic earthquake of an 8.2 magnitude rocks the Russian countryside.

At the same time, Josh and Rachel's daughter becomes trapped in a crumbled subway tunnel, while back at the plant several fires threaten to cause a meltdown - and an explosion ten times the size of Hiroshima...

So begins a race against time as Josh and Rachel fight their way into the collapsed train tunnels and nature reveals a final, deadly surprise...another MASSIVE QUAKE!

NATURE UNLEASHED: FIRE
After a dirt biker is injured, Forest Ranger Jake Langford gets the assignment to lead the rider and his group safely out of the forest. But when a mysterious, angry arsonist sets off fires across the park, the group is trapped in a raging inferno...and the way out is through an old abandoned mine that's full of methane gas - which is not only poisonous, but very, very flammable...

Get ready to face nature's fiery fury in this high-octane thrill ride packed with explosive action, pulse-pounding suspense, and incredible special effects!

2.0 out of 5 stars Disastrous cinema, June 11, 2009

This review is from: Disaster 4 Film Collector's Set (DVD)

This product's Editorial section adequately covers film synopses.

The ECHO BRIDGE DISASTER 4 FILM COLLECTOR'S SET is comprised of two double feature flipdiscs in separate keepcases that are housed in a thin paper cover. No booklets included, but liner notes for films are on back covers.

Clear transfers are in widescreen format. Stereo sound. "Crash Landing" has Dolby 5.1 surround and Spanish subtitles. There's only 5 chapter accesses for this one. The others provide 24 chapter jumps.

These three are from the "Nature Unleashed" series issued by indie GFT ENTERTAINMENT. They're mediocrities featuring unknown casts, and are the combined efforts of outfits based in Canada, UK and three Balkan nations.


Also from ECHO BRIDGE:
DISASTER FILMS COLLECTOR SET (6-DVD Pack) has these made-for TVers: "The Black Hole" (2006), "Category 7: The End of the World" (2005), "Disaster Zone: Volcano in New York City" (2006), "Final Days of Planet Earth" (2006), "Supernova" (2005) and "10.5 Apocalypse" (2006).

Disaster 4 Film Collector's set - not particularly inspiring so far. I have watched Earthquake and Fire and have to admit that if the other two are in any way similar then I can't consider this to be an exceptional buy

Poorly made with cartoon crashes! Soap stars are everywhere! Some sceens are sharp, but it lacks the punch for true disaster fans...
