One of the guilty pleasures Drew and I share is our love of cheesy disaster movies. You know, the kind that are on SyFy Sunday nights when no one is paying attention.
Tonight's movie is "Category 7: The End of the World". Not only are the special effects awful, but the cast is packed with people you know-- Randy Quaid, Shannon Doherty, Adam Rodriguez (think CSI: Miami), and none other than Tom Skerritt. This movie aims to please with 4 hours of fun-- as I write this, we are only at the end of hour two.
(I have my own guilty pleasure show-- What Not To Wear. Drew calls it Trashy Fashion Television. I call it fun.)
Still, it is extremely relaxing to unwind after spending a beautiful Sunday outside (we had an unplanned doggy block party) with a cold beer and a disaster movie that generates more laughter than shock. This is especially true after our own household mini-disasters that Drew referred to.
Also, as Drew mentioned, I am still planning to head to Japan in the fall. This is after the earthquake, tsunami, and volcano (on the island I plan to visit). He said that if a swarm of locusts hits, I'm not going. According to the movie, a swarm of flies will signify the end of the world, so, I have to agree with Drew.
In the meantime, check out classic Sunday SyFy...the cinematography makes the entire movie well worth it!
