5.7 | 4h0m | en | Thriller

Fuming over the departure of his wife Vivian and the cutting of his research funding, crazy nuclear scientist Rogers Henry constructs Medusa, a thermonuclear bomb capable of generating a continent-sized electro-magnetic pulse; such EMP could effectively destroy a computer-based society. He dupes Vivian into bringing it to the Pentagon to exact his final revenge on the government, rigging it so it will explode before its count-down if Vivian's pacemaker isn't within fifteen feet of it. Medusa arms itself in the air aboard Scott Nash's 737 cargo plane, and with Hurricane Sigrid about to hit the coast, nobody wants to let them land. Based on the novel by John J. Nance.

elskootero Saw this film for the first time about 10 minutes ago and was absolutely FLOORED!!! After the first 20 minutes, I said to myself....EH; Maybe a C+. Then, once Gail O'Grady's character got the thing ( I won't say what) on board and you learn what it is, I upgraded it to a B+. Then, a little more than an hour into it, I shouted aloud, "Eccumenical Effluvia", A+, and by the end, 2 hours later, it's final grade was A+++! Then, I come downstairs to see how much it is on Amazon, But neither they nor anyone else has it out yet!?!? Movie fans, SEE THIS ONE!!!!! It drags a tad in the first 20 minutes, but stay with it! You'll need Kidneys of cast iron... it's that good. You'll be glued to your seat!
rwinbour Loved the really stupid comment about "earth warming causing the present hurricane to have greater power than regular hurricane". Honest to God is there no better talent in writing than to waste it on something so bad?
David Atfield This has got to be one of the biggest loads of garbage (I'm being polite) I have ever seen.Wait for the open heart surgery performed by a bimbo doctor of science without anaesthetic mid-flight at an open cargo door, that causes no pain and is over in 2 minutes!If you believe this you'll probably enjoy this rubbish.Good special effects for a telemovie though.
dottie-2 I really liked this movie. Even though they changed a few things from the book, they kept the suspense up and running. The casting was perfect and well acted. Especially Vincent Spano as the Captain. I would recommend this film to anyone, and I will buy a copy of the video when it is available.
