What if a massive earthquake is looming? Director John Andreas Andersen has done it again with his next disaster movie, The Quake.
It’s true when they say “there’s NO Escaping” The Quake. Read on to watch the first look The Quake trailer…
CelebNMovies247.com reports The trailer for The Quake shows Oslo getting torn apart by a massive earthquake.
The movie is the sequel to the Norwegian film The Wave, which came out in 2015. The first installment was praised for basing the story on the real-life tsunami that hit Norway in the early 1900s and showing off character development over digital effects.
Once again writers John Kåre Raake and Harald Rosenløw-Eeg are making sure that the follow-up disaster movie The Quake is something you have to experience.
We have to admit, this movie looks like a MUST SEE film if you ask us, The Wave was a remarkable film and if The Quake is anything like The Wave, then this will become a disaster movie fan favorite.
In fact, it’s already been said that The Quake follows the same pattern as The Wave by not letting the digital effects do all of the heavy lifting.
NOTE: Early reviews of The Quake have been mostly positive.
In 1904 an earthquake with a 5.4 magnitude on the Richter scale shook Oslo. Its epicenter was in the Oslo Rift which runs directly through the Norwegian capital. There are recorded quakes from the rift on a daily basis and geologists cannot be sure, but arguments indicate that we can expect major future earthquakes in this area. When – nobody can say for certain – but we know that the density of people and infrastructure in Oslo is significantly more vulnerable today than in 1904.
The Quake is directed by John Andreas Andersen from a script written by John Kare Raake and Harald Rosenlow-Eeg, who also wrote The Wave. The sequel stars Kristoffer Joner, Ane Dahl Torp, Kathrine Thorborg Johansen, Jonas Hoff Oftebro, and Edith Haagenrud-Sande. The disaster sequel is set to open in select theaters domestically on December 14th and will hit VOD and streaming services the same day.
