Plot

Slacker Donny's (Eric Ericson) life is turned upside-down when Lova (Eva Rose) enters his life possessing a mysterious box which may hold answers to eternal and dangerous questions. But evil forces want to possess the box, and Donny and Eva must travel through time to ensure the future of mankind.

Production

The film was shot in Stockholm, Vänersborg (as the abandoned city) and in Trollhättan, a.k.a. Trollywood.

Reception

Steve Pattee from "horrortalk.com" blamed the film for having a "less than satisfactory" ending, but he gave three out of five stars.[4] A blogger named Cyrus also spoke of a "less than satisfying ending" because there was possibly "a bit too much" left for the viewer to ponder.[5] Bill Gribon from "dvdtalk.com" appreciated "Storm" as "fascinating food for thought".[6]
