3.0 out of 5 stars
Cult classic,
By C. Nassor (Austin, Texas) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Night of the Cyclone [VHS] (VHS Tape)
Having lived and traveled in the Comores Islands, I found this film charming and alarming. It's charm was in its overabundance of trite lines, overacting, stereotypical antics and Nick Nolte's absolute innocuous, stilted bad, bad, bad acting. It was like a "Rocky Horror Picture Show" in the midst of the Indian Ocean. What was alarming was its total defamation of the Comorien culture. There were actors speaking Swahili (not the local language of the Comores) and...well, just imagine: US, white South African, French-Reunionais and others of European descent making a "movie" in an African country...and voila! little or no mention of the Comorien culture and no justice done to it. Other than those disservices, the film was pure cheesey. Great for showing and reshowing and learning the cheesey lines to recite along with the the "actors."
