Aftershock: Chinese Movie 2010

I was browsing through Netflix and found an interesting movie called "Aftershock" about an earthquake that hits a Chinese Village sometime likely in the 20th century (1976). I've never seen an Earthquake depicted quite like this. It is pretty gruesome between the level of deaths and horror when  a large earthquake devastates a village and a woman begs the villagers to save her children buried in the apartment rubble left after the earthquake. She has to abandon the girl to save the son who is more seriously injured. I'm not sure I can watch the whole thing because it is pretty gruesome and lifelike. This is no fantasy. Instead it is what many people have experienced in places like Asia and Japan when a really big earthquake hits buildings not designed for this kind of abuse when people are still in them. So, the little girl is left alone alone with her father dead and her brother seriously injured and her mother goes with the son to save his life to a hospital because she is too injured on multiple levels after the death of her husband to take care of both of them anyway.

I personally survived the the 1971 California Earthquake which is as bad an earthquake

as I ever want to see. Even in that one I was fairly well convinced I was going to die

because of how intense and long it shook the earth. It is the only earthquake

I have been in that I received bruises from from bouncing off the wall and hitting my shins on the metal bedframe. So, for a Californian this movie is pretty scary after living through the 1971

Earthquake myself. I can't really imagine being where houses weren't built to California building codes where they fall down around you and on top of you and you die. That is amazingly scary.
