1/10
Boring.. 66 min too long. ZERO entertainment value.

Warning: Spoilers
It shouldn't come as a surprise that no hairs, eyebrows,moustaches etc.. were singed in the making of this film, since at no point was real fire used or even camera pointed to. So that should give you an idea of what you're in for.

This movie should not be taken seriously at any point or in any way. At best is a really bad comedic parody (ecevpt none of the ppl making and playing in it know this) that may result in a few chuckles if you have nothing better to do with your time or you are one of those who likes to watch really bad films.. Unfortunately it isn't so bad that it's funny like Sharknado,Troll or even Birdemic: Shock and Terror. If at one point of the character was revealed as a cyborg then I might have Cracked a laugh but no such luck.

I've watched many bad films knowing full well they will be bad but most of them ended up being entertaining in the way I'm sure they weren't meant to be.. This movie is borderline that because its actually quite boring. I can get past bad acting and bad CGI and basically everything that's bad in this movie BUT there has to be some other entertainment value in it such as a lot of action and potentially a even more ridiculous plot than this. Fire Twister does not have that.

CGI is beyond horrid! It looks like it was either done with a phone app or some free browser app; and whoever made it either medicated, was having a laugh and joke or he/she was paid $50 up from for the entire thing and wasn't gonna bother using his/her hands to make those FX so left it up to their pet cat walking over his/her keyboard to do the job CGI editing.

Not clear to me why the fire twister is chasing those ppl? is it self aware ?.. Across a lawn that gets no fire dmg and one woman screams "Make it stop!" Ahaha God! At least it's funny. The chase across the lawn is hilarious.Reminded me Hot Shots. Bad guys shoot what looks like a lot of bullets from veeery far then yell "we need to get closer", everyone starts running, bad guys are 50m behind the good guys and miss each shot as the good guys duck and swat away the bullets, they hide behind car which causes the bad guys loose track of them. Good guys quickly hide in a ditch 2m away from car, bad guys come to the car look around and say "they not here" then walk the opposite way of course like in cartoons. Femme fatale shooting phones as a way of ending phone conversations if just pure cringe gold.. That was my second chuckle in the movie and it was all downhill from there. I even made popcorn for this trash thinking I'll have a good laugh.

Acting is non existend and after watching these people I now have doubts about their ability to fake a headache in real life.. Let alone an orgasm. The only explanation I can think of as to why theres such bad acting/screenplay/dialogue is because there was NONE. Was all improv. Maker's of the film just asked actors to show up to the movie set (made out of a park, 1 pool and 2 cars), made them read a one paragraph story summarizing the idea of what they trying to film and proceeded to yell ACTION! Actors then we're taken by surprise by : blowing leaves, 2 parked firetrucks, old cult couple AND bunch of off-screen ppl waving signs with pictures of fire and buletts..And this is the end result, well it's actually worse cause that would have been acted better.

Shots of the city engulfed in flames and smoke are just something out of a scrapbook.. shooting on a miniature set for such shots would have been better. This could have simply been done by filming cigarette smoke blowing over a scrapped city maquette while some dude is having a smoke break next to it, throw matchsticks and cracker poppers in there and you done.. that would have been much better than this pile of trash.

Blood FX had to be edited in! Looks like they had the fake blood recipe for "1 axe death", no one had connection to the one guy who knows a guy who has THE recipe for fake blood used in the " Passion of Christ" movie set.. so they kept it all for the bad guy being axed at the end.

Bad Guy beating to death with a golf club that woman they could have just made him beat a bag of beets and it would have looked better on camera than whatever app they used for blood splash FX. That would have been called entertainment and I can see myself eating popcorn to that laughing the moment I realize that's beet juice that's splashing around on the screen.

Could go on but I'm sure no one will even read what's been written till now.. But might save some ppl from wasting their time when that's not their intention to do so when planning on a movie night or moment.
