At last — the first disaster movie where everybody dies (laughing).

ActionComedy

The ultimate disaster film parody. A nuclear-powered bus is making its maiden non-stop trip from New York to Denver. The journey is plagued by disasters due to the machinations of a mysterious group allied with the oil lobby. Will the down-on-his-luck driver, with a reputation for eating his passengers, be able to complete the journey?

VIBE

A gloriously unhinged spoof of disaster films. Expect relentless gags, over-the-top set pieces, and a truly bizarre sense of humor. It's a wild, unpredictable ride that revels in its own absurdity.
