Exclusive ‘The Quake’ Clip Shakes Up a Building

Published

on

From the producers of The Wave comes the John Andreas Andersen-directed The Quake, which shakes its way into limited theaters, On Demand, iTunes and Amazon Prime Video December 14, 2018. Bloody Disgusting has this exclusive clip in which a woman runs into a building in the middle of a massive earthquake.

“In 1904 an earthquake with a 5.4 magnitude on the Richter scale shook Oslo. Its epicenter was in the Oslo Rift which runs directly through the Norwegian capital. There are recorded quakes from the rift on a daily basis and geologists cannot be sure, but arguments indicate that we can expect major future earthquakes in this area. When – nobody can say for certain – but we know that the density of people and infrastructure in Oslo is significantly more vulnerable today than in 1904.”

Rafael already reviewed the film, which is said to be a spiritual follow-up to The Wave and inspired by a 1904 earthquake in Oslo.
