This poor man's version of The Omen somehow escaped my radar until right now, despite it being right up my alley - you know, the alley filled with gold curtains and olive green settees.
The main flaw here is that Kirk Douglas is a disgustingly old 61 and looks every second of it next to the 19 year old college student cast as his love interest. But I think Holocaust 2000 wanted to drive home that his grotesquely greedy CEO character was pure evil.
I definitely thought this flick was closer to the truth about global warming and climate change than its comparatively iconic 70s antichrist thriller and I very much appreciated that angle. About half of the stars here are for apocalypse accuracy and the rest are for crystal chandeliers.
