The film “Storm Warning” (We Need to Do Something) is a vivid example of a movie in the beloved genre of psychological horror. And this title was not given to this film masterpiece in vain.
The plot and script of the film “Storm Warning”
The plot of the film is entirely based on the novel “We Have to Do Something” by Max Booth III; by the way, the horror film bears the same name in the American box office. But the distributors decided to rename it; whether it was worth doing or not, only an inquisitive viewer can say. The film was directed by Sean King O’Grady, who is not yet familiar to domestic audiences.
“Storm Warning” is the story of how the main character, played by Sierra McCormick, finds herself trapped in someone else’s house in the middle of a tornado. Fortunately, the teenage girl was not alone, but with her family, but this did not save the average American family from trouble. Four people found themselves locked in the bathroom, but no one had rushed to help them yet. What to do in such a situation? Of course, try to survive, which is what our heroes do.
Storm Warning 2022: Trailer
What added special piquancy to the premiere was the fact that it was released on wide screens in July 2021, right in the midst of a pandemic and self-isolation. Therefore, the film found a lively response in the hearts of the audience, but critics reacted rather ambiguously to the film, and to this day no one can come to a common denominator on this matter. All that remains is to watch for yourself, and then form your own opinion about “Storm Warning”.
Actors and filming process
According to members of the film crew, everything took only 4 weeks, and the filming itself was kept in the strictest confidence. Before the premiere, it was not even known who exactly took part in the film. Now it is known that the four main roles were played by:
Sierra McCormick
Pat Healy
Vinessa Shaw
John James Cronin
By the way, the film was the first to be created by Spin a Black Yarn Productions in collaboration with Josh Malerman and Ryan Lewis.
In fact, the film is not a disaster film in the usual sense, although the title refers us precisely to this; it is more of a thriller about the horrors of self-isolation, coupled with panic in front of closed spaces. All in all, if you suffer from claustrophobia, don’t want to be locked in a confined space, but like to tickle your nerves, it’s time to get comfortable and turn on the 2022 film Storm Warning. A pleasant evening is guaranteed!
