Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
This was one of four disaster movies Paul Ziller directed in the mid-2000s, cementing his reign as Canada's answer to Roland Emmerich on a gas station budget.
Released during the height of 'disaster porn' TV movies, it rode the coattails of The Day After Tomorrow while stealing liberally from 1979's Meteor.
