Info

Fuming over the departure of his wife Vivian and the cutting of his research funding, crazy nuclear scientist Rogers Henry constructs Medusa, a thermonuclear bomb capable of generating a continent-sized electro-magnetic pulse; such EMP could effectively destroy a computer-based society. He dupes Vivian into bringing it to the Pentagon to exact his final revenge on the government, rigging it so it will explode before its count-down if Vivian's pacemaker isn't within fifteen feet of it. Medusa arms itself in the air aboard Scott Nash's 737 cargo plane, and with Hurricane Sigrid about to hit the coast, nobody wants to let them land. Based on the novel by John J. Nance.

Medusa's Child Audience Reviews

Karry Best movie of this year hands down!
Aiden Melton The storyline feels a little thin and moth-eaten in parts but this sequel is plenty of fun.
Donald Seymour This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.
Mathilde the Guild Although I seem to have had higher expectations than I thought, the movie is super entertaining.
bdeville-1 This is another excellent Martin Scheen movie. Good work seems to follow him around like a puppy wanting love. The plot, the story line all mesh well.One small technical error. The exterior of the airplane as well as the script, call it a 737 (That is Boeing 737), but in fact the cockpit scenes show it to be a Boeing 727. The 727 has a crew of three and three engines. The 737 is smaller has two engines and no flight engineer station. Admittely a small detail, but important to those of us that have spent more than thirty seconds in an airplane.However it does not detract from the movie. If you like techno thrillers, this is for you. Tom Clancy fans will love it.Bruce Deville
rwinbour Loved the really stupid comment about "earth warming causing the present hurricane to have greater power than regular hurricane". Honest to God is there no better talent in writing than to waste it on something so bad?
debbieesther Even though this teevee movie is as predictable as they come, the mad scientist, the fearless pilots, the smart, tough as nails, but beautiful broads, the foolish military leaders and the honest, human president, you won't be disappointed with the heart-stopping suspense, great special effects and above all, the dynamite acting.
chrnaess Medusas Child reminded me of why i watch movies in the first place, after so many mediocre and boring movies, this one was really quite special. Director Larry Shaw and everyone in the crew set a standard for those big time directors who surely are beaten by this superior thriller.The film had everything to offer, great suspense and intensity all throughout the 2h50min. It had fine performances from it`s entire cast, Spano, Sheen and Loughlin was especially fine and so was the extremely beautiful Gail 0`Grady, her beauty shines every time.This film is so good all the way through it surpasses Executive Decision(1996) in every aspect and I think that is a superior film as well.
