"Next!"
'Eli Roth presents...'...and co-writes, co-produces and effectively stars in this rather weak horror throwback, giving probably the best performance in a roster of unappealing characters and limited characterisations. There are a couple of effective black-humour gore gags, but the plot mostly staggers uninterestingly from one victim to the next. The party at which the earthquake hits is clearly studio-bound, but there is some interest to be found in the actual location shooting.
Aftershock also boasts the most staggeringly predictable final shot in memory, confirming that this is not a memorable viewing experience.
