Airplane vs. Volcano (2014)

"Airplane vs. Volcano" is brought to you by the amazing folks over at The Asylum studios.
This movie starts off with two Vulcanologists studying a ring of volcanoes. The volcanoes begin to erupt and one of the Vulcanologists dies while trying to escape.
Meanwhile, a commercial airplane carrying well over 100 passengers gets stuck in the erupting ring of volcanoes. The two pilots flying the plane are killed after the plane experiences severe turbulence. A man named Rick (played by Dean Cain) tries to take control of the plane. He is joined by a stewardess, an air Marshall, and a colleague of the Vulcanologists (the two from the beginning of the movie). The surviving member of the Vulcanologist team is at a military base assisting everyone in planning evacuations and courses of action. When they learn about the commercial airliner being stuck in the ring of volcanoes, they try to figure out a way assist them, much to the chagrin of their boss.

The folks aboard the airplane try working together to avoid tragedy, but not all of them are seeing eye-to-eye. Can they get to safety before the volcanoes kill them, or they kill each other?

My Review:
If you haven't already noticed, I'm a huge fan of Asylum movies. Many of the movies I review are Asylum movies, and I will continue to add Asylum movies to this blog. Sure, I encounter movies from Asylum that absolutely stink, but this movie wasn't one of them.
This movie kept me on the edge of my seat! It was non-stop action, with a hint of gore. The special effects were pretty good for a movie that wasn't a blockbuster. The acting was pretty good as well.

Would I recommend this movie to my readers? Absolutely! If you love disaster movies that keep you on the edge of your seat, you will LOVE "Airplane vs. Volcano."

This movie also stars Robin Givens, Tamara Goodwin, and Anthony Marks.
