Dante's Peak/YMMV

• Cliché Storm: Protagonist lost his spouse in the same disaster many years ago and is still hung up about it? Check. Money-orientated superior who insists that nothing will go wrong and that they mustn't evacuate only for him to be, of course, wrong, and subsequently die a Karmic Death? Check. Most annoying character who refused to come down from the mountain and thus endangered the lives of the others dies? Check. Dog survives? Check. Big final blow-you-out-of-your-seat special effects sequence? Check. Token Romance? Check... And yet, for all that, it still manages to be good.
• High Octane Nightmare Fuel:
  • The part where lava suddenly bursts through the inner wall of Ruth's cabin.
  • The part where Ruth jumps into the acid lake. Especially the very thought of either doing that or crossing the lake, which you know will most likely burn through the hull of the boat, dumping you inside and causing you to most likely die a horrible death.
• Narm: The group singing "Row Row Row Your Boat" as they float across the acidic lake while it's eating through the metal hull. Or it could be High Octane Nightmare Fuel. Or one followed by the other.
• Squick: Let's say that you really don't want to fall into a lake full of sulphuric acid.
  • Third degree acid burns on the inside of Grandmother Ruth's lady parts. Dear Gods.
