There Is No Escape When TIDAL WAVE Crashes On Blu-ray Disc And DVD May 11 From Magnolia Home Entertainment Under The Magnet Releasing Label


“Thoroughly entertaining…”
- Variety

“Grand in scale…”
-San Francisco Chronicle

“Whips up a satisfying tempest of visual and special effects…”
-The Hollywood Reporter

One of the most expensive and highest-grossing productions in Korean history, TIDAL WAVE brings to the screen a mighty sea of CGI and special effects creating unprecedented sequences of destruction. When seismic activity detects an impending mega-tsunami is barreling towards the picturesque shores of a tourist-packed sliver of a beach resort, the oblivious vacationers aren’t even going to know what hit them. As a marine geologist races to alert the authorities, he encounters his ex-wife and the daughter he never knew he had, just as the massive wave heads their way at 500 mph.

With more than 15 years of experience, the acclaimed CGI specialists of Polygon Entertainment (The Perfect Storm, The Day After Tomorrow) supervised by Geoff Heron (Pirates of the Caribbean trilogy, Transformers, Terminator Salvation) bring the spectacular wave to life. In the likes of The Host, TIDAL WAVE captures the raw energy of mother nature while exploring the delicate, interwoven relationships of the many characters scrambling to escape the wrath of the ocean.
