Movie Info

A series of devastating storms are leveling major cities across the globe, and it's up to discredited scientist Faith Clavell (Shannon Doherty), dedicated storm chaser Tommy Tornado (Randy Quaid), and the FEMA head Judith Carr (Gina Gerson) to journey into the eye of the storm and find out just why mother nature has turned so violently on mankind in the shocking sequel to 2004's weather-gone-wild thriller Category 6: Day of Destruction. An unprecedented Category Six storm has leveled the Eiffel Tower and reduced the Great Pyramids to rubble, and as the pitch black funnel clouds lay waste to anything and everything in their path, three dedicated heroes attempt to discover whether the malevolent weather is the cause of global warming, or something far more sinister. When a vengeful gang of terrorists threaten to use the storms to their advantage by staging a large scale attack the likes of which the world has never seen, it seems as if it very well may be the end of the world.

Critic Reviews for Category 7: The End of the World

All Critics (1) | Top Critics (1) | Rotten (1)

Director Dick Lowry tap-dances around Craig Weiss's special effects. And these special effects are so thumb-in-the-eye, so over-the-digitized-rainbow, that one suddenly wonders whether Category 7 is hilarious on purpose.

Audience Reviews for Category 7: The End of the World

Apr 02, 2013

Piece of junky claptrap is illogical even within the limited sphere of disaster movies. The only person to emerge with dignity intact is Swoosie Kurtz and only because she seems to recognize what a Velvetta fest this is and pitches her performance accordingly.
