Also known as WW3, this pre-9/11 drama about a terrorist declaration of bio-war around the world is nightmarishly effective and especially timely with names like Osama bin Laden and Al Qaeda tossed about by FBI characters. After bio-terror assaults on a cruise ship and at a baseball game result in thousands of deaths, one federal agent (Vanessa L. Williams) narrows the field of suspects while another (Timothy Hutton) is sent to engage his retired G-Man uncle (Lane Smith) and the latter's Russian counterpart (Michael Constantine)--both Nixon-era specialists in deploying mass diseases--in stopping the bacteria's spread. Meanwhile, the U.S. president has declared martial law, and Western intelligence discovers the chain of terrorist culpability includes Iraq, Syria, North Korea, and disaffected Russian scientists. Robert Mandel (The X-Files) directs with a terrifying deliberateness and powerful use of moviemaking basics: great makeup, sets, costumes, cinematography, and casting. --Tom Keogh

THE WORST KIND OF HORROR MOVIE.......2004-10-31

WINDS OF TERROR is a realistic, terrifying what if movie. Terrorists are releasing a deadly virus in various locations around the world. We initially see its results on a cruise liner; then at a Chicago ball game. People die horrible deaths, and the FBI is determined to stop a final outbreak in Washington, D.C.
Timothy Hutton offers a sincere performance as the FBI agent determined to catch the terrorist; Lane Smith is fine as his uncle who created the virus; and Vanessa L. Williams as a bioterror specialist is very good. Director Robert Mandel keeps the tension high and this is one scary flick.

Indeed winds of terror.......2003-08-12

"Winds of Terror" is a wonderful despliction of the what-if question. It may not be a pretty movie, but the producers answer it in great detail. These events are similar to past disease outbreaks. The make-up team make the symptoms real looking. The actors and the crew are great. Though most of this film has been done before, it's still highly entertaining.
