Good grief. What an incomprehensible and disjointed mess. And nothing about it makes you care enough to figure it all out. Like all tornado films, there's an idiot who tries to film the twister in order to get killed. This guy has a brat kid who follows him, wanting to get killed too I guess. The dad (but not the brat) gets a one-way ticket into the funnel cloud. Whatever script there was to this thing apparently got vacuumed up with dad; there's certainly no plot on the screen after that. Cut to 30 years later, the kid is now a big square jawed TV cameraman clod who still can't act. He encounters gypsies, cults, gratingly phony accents, psychos in wards having bad-hair-days, sinister conspiracies, demonic cloud-faces, legends, directors who are as untalented as he is, script writers who are even worse, and yawning audiences. Occasionally, a tornado shows up. Tornadoes chase people in this movie. No, really. In one cult meeting, there's a guy with a Yoda hood, who sounds like he's moaning "Fe-Fi-Fo-Fum." (I think that's Latin for "I'll get you, my little pretty, and your little dog as well.")
Clumsy nonsense that tries to throw a hundred things at a dartboard, hoping that something sticks. Nothing did.

Ineptitude: Hacks Unleashed
The most irredeemable movie that I've seen in quite some time
My expectations were pretty low already, but I was expecting it to have some essence of fun. Nature Unleashed: Tornado doesn't even have that. There is nothing good about the movie at all, so much so that you get no novelty value whatsoever, only hair-ripping-worthy frustration. Where to begin? Well, Nature Unleashed: Tornado is incredibly cheap to look at for starters with hackneyed editing, which was a big part of why the dream sequence was as disastrous as it was, and some of the worst CGI effects I've ever seen. The music is generic, nothing's memorable and it's never exciting in tempo. The script is both cheesy and aimless, the complete opposite of what a good script should be and the characters are unlikeably clichéd with the gypsies very negatively exploited. The acting is terrible with nobody standing out or giving a good performance. But the worst asset has to be the story, it is so dull and incomprehensible that you actually wonder if there's a story at all, and there are no suspense, tension or thrills whatsoever. Overall, an embarrassing film, even for low-budget, with no redeeming qualities. 0/10 Bethany Cox
Particularly poor
NATURE UNLEASHED: TORNADO is a particularly poor example of its kind, a straight-to-video disaster effort in which a small town is threatened by tornadoes and only a man with an ancestral connection to an ancient prophecy has the power to fight back. The hero is square-jawed Daniel Bernhardt, once an action star of the '90s, but what follows is pure cheese and nonsense, with little action and zero excitement. It was shot in Romania on the cheap and the fantasy elements of the plot are entirely laughable and inept in practice. Listen out for the sound effects liberally borrowed from the PC game DOOM!
