Why aren't there disaster movies about fires? They're much scarier than tornadoes or whatever.

Back draft?
Theres that one with miles teller and josh brolin.
There are lots of firefighter movies. Most notable Backdraft, starring whatshisname Baldwin, Kurt Russell and Robert De Niro.
Almost twenty years old, but good.
That was less a disaster movie and more a movie about a team and some guys finding their purposes in life or whatever
Backdraft is the fire movie I think of and Twister is the tornado movie. Are there a lot more tornado movies or something?
A horror movie about spontaneous combustion would be sick. Especially scenes of half burnt people in hospitals. Nightmare fuel.
Tornadoes are definitely scarier than fires
When will we get another nice climate change one like The Day After Tomorrow?
It got nominated for Best Picture, ffs
i dont get it why are they just chilling out inside
What kind of idiot dies in a fire lmao just climb out the window and ur safe
Last good one I saw and liked was Deepwater Horizon
THanks user, I'll look into that one
>just climb out the window and ur safe
Hard to film because its an unpredictable antagonist. You need too much exposition.
That said, check out Only The Brave. Its about saving a town from a wildfire.
Maybe it could work as a found footage survival horror.
>Almost twenty years old
Over 25 years old.
you're not gonna like it even though it's great
but there is in fact a horror movie called Spontaneous Combustion.
And it's more a sci-fi movie than straight horror, but you should probably see Firestarter anyway.
They're jammed into the doorway with the fire coming just behind thm. I've seen this video and it's hard to watch knowing how many people actually died and the fact that many were burned alive. From the start of the actual fire to the panicked jam of people at the doorway, only about a minute to a minute and a half has elapsed.
why dont they just walk out the door
It's clogged by meat.
A couple of years ago I was obsessed with the station fire. I watched videos and interviews of it for weeks
It's difficult to make a movie about a disaster which reduces visibility. Fire makes smoke. The smoke kills people.
is the creature from bill and ted's bogus journey named for the fire?
>what is Lost
The way that lady bear the beginning of the fire screams with absolute terror gave me chills. Then later on some guy says "they're all on fire" in a tone like a baby would go. It was like the horror he just witnessed was too much for his brain to handle and reverted back to being a toddler or something. Fascinating
it always looked to me that the people in the doorway just dont want to move
no expressions, no effort, nothing
like a bunch of brainless cattle
Skyscraper? I hear it's litty af.
Kind of a fire movie
Yeah they were actually just really lazy and couldn't be bothered.
100% what it looks like
id have been climbing over people like a cat or breaking through the wall with a chair or something
if I were outside, Id have grabbed the people in the doorway and started yanking them out
no effort shown
You can't yank them out. It's a massive congestion of intermingled limbs and bodies pushed from the back into a far too thin doorway. There was no going above either. They already were piling up as heigh as it gets, because this was exactly what people were doing, only to get stuck, too and suffocating those on the bottom. There was a blob of some 50 people in and behind that door. Once it clogged up, there was no escape.
>What a lot of people don’t know is, this club had a false ceiling!! It was for acoustic reasons. The building was very rectangular, creating horrible reverb. There was a 4ft wide opening into that space right above that stage; right above the curling over sound foam. When the sound board caught fire, flames went into that space between the false roof and the actual ceiling. It fermented like in the movie Backdraft. Very soon, as you can totally see in the video, a ceiling of fire came down on all those people. It’s fucken INSANE
