Classic 1970s disaster movie about a fire that breaks out in a state-of-the-art San Francisco high-rise building during the opening ceremony attended by a host of A-list guests. An overworked fire chief and the building's architect must cooperate in the struggle to save lives and subdue panic while a corrupt, cost-cutting contractor tries to evade responsibility for the disaster.



This movie actually has some terrifying moments, an all star cast, and it's very entertaining. The special effects still hold to this day. The only bad thing is it's poster.

I agree with all of your points. I feel like it's the slasher film of disaster films due to the way the deaths are kinda placed. Especially the one with the subplot you were talking about, even if that is one of the better scenes imo.
Oop @ u calling it the slasher of disaster films... :teriwhat: Not u finding that sub-plot 2 be 1 of the better scenes, it's so damn messy :icant:
that death is my fave

what did ya think about the one girl with the two kids. She was looking after them or something, and she was channeling a short hair style
Funny doesn't mean it's worth faving :dontdoit:

She was honest my fav charrie & it pissed me off what happened 2 her :lynettewhy:

I thought the receptionist's affair subplot was lame tho, but the actual scene with the fire was suspenseful.
