Eaters

I wanted to turn it off from the start but stopped myself from doing so because I wanted to see what happened. I wanted to know what they were. From the title I just assumed they were zombies or something, but I was wrong. The story line is the same story that we have been seeing and hearing for years. I sit here all of the time wondering when they are going to come up with new ideas. They keep making the same boring stuff over and over and over again. *yawn* Anyway, the acting was so bad that I wonder if they even know how off key and bad they actually sound when they are saying their lines. Honestly, I don't know what was worse, the boring over used story line, the bad acting or the biker dude's ugly fake hair. Oh well, if you want a good movie, this isn't it. If you want to waste some time, this is the movie for you. Bad, just bad.

Low budget movies are one thing, but total lack of acting talent is another. Usually you can find one "actor" that has a modicum of chops, but this is ridiculous. It's as if no one has ever acted a lick. Probably none of them have and they are all friends/relatives of the director. I could've done better and I'm sure I did even in grade school plays.

Too many other movies to watch to waste 90 minutes on this train wreck.

I would say I've seen worse, but I'm drawing a blank.

I will say remember the director's name: Johnny Tabor. That way you can avoid anything else he may have the misfortune of writing and/or directing.

A group of these young friends, while on a road trip stumble into a biker gang. On their way to find one of their friends, after she's gone missing, they find themselves lured into a trap, now turning their nightmare into something more sinister as they come face, to face with the supposed "Eaters" One plain sentence can pretty much sum this entire movie up. What a load of crap. This movie was just.. terrible. To start off, the acting. The acting in this movie was absolutely atrocious, and words can't describe how painfully obvious it was that these "actors" had the slightest clue on how to act. Their line delivery was terrible, their reaction acting, as well was dreadful, and their all around delivery of their characters was God awful, and just painful to sit through. On Top of that, the characters they acted as were flat out, to the core, completely clichéd. You have your typical bunch of clichéd characters, at this point, you could literally care less about. This film just delivers the same copied group thrown into the same, boring situation, just another time. The entire plot of this film was mixed together with clichés, and to top that off, it was presented in the most atrocious of ways. You have the same, agonizingly old situation where a bunch of characters are stuck in the middle of nowhere, more specifically, the desert. And you have the same old situation where they're being hunter by killers. The only thing that this movie differs with, is an execution of the same exact cliché, only in a more agonizingly boring, and convolutely ugly way. The pacing in this movie just threw any interest out the window completely, as we have an unwanted mixed bag of which sends the storyline, overall to be a horribly slow, slow movie. We barely see these "Eaters" until the 30 minute mark of the film, even then, we barely really get to see them at all. The film makes itself even more pointless as we get barely ANY story whatsoever. We literally watch these strangers of characters be thrown with these strangers of killers. What makes matters even more worse is the budget. With such horrible elements of the film, we get the horrid elements with an even more horrid budget. The cinematography was atrocious, most of the shots couldn't even focus, making things look blurry. And for the most part, we get ugly shades of yellow throughout this entire film, making even the smallest of things look ugly, and simply unsettling, and not in the good way. And finally, the audio.. Half of this film, the audience struggles to hear what their trying to say as it pans in, and out constantly, making it not only frustrating, but angering, and annoying.

In conclusion.. what an atrocity. I can honestly say this is one of the worst, in not the worst horror films of 2015. Terrible, God awful acting, horrible elements, lazy writing, ugly technical work, and all around a jumbled mess of a supposed "film" I honestly can't recommend this under any circumstances, you're better off watching a high school film of a horror film, in all honesty, as this proves to just be another one of Lionsgate's dump films.

It's obvious ANARCHYSOAP worked on, or acted in this garbage film. I find it interesting he mentioned character commitment, because while watching this piece of 5hit, I kept laughing at how the actors had absolutely ZERO conviction and telling my girlfriend about it over and over. Especially the least talented guy in the yellow shirt who was supposed to be getting married. He was the absolute worst, with second place going to the annoying 5hithead who gets tied up in the barn. You basically want to see this cast getting killed in the most brutal of ways, minus the girl because her body was pretty rock'n, and she had an attractive yet odd Maggie Gyllenhaal vibe going on.

The first few scenes were nicely shot as the Mustang pulls into the rest area, and it makes you think it might be starting out good, and then it just collapses after the girl disappears. I've never seen a more disjointed film. Like 10 minutes of two idiots looking around, and you're thinking, wtf happened to the damn biker gang guy, or this guy, or this girl? I mean really stupid direction and pacing that's just awful. Mostly because instead of fleshing the story out, they added filler. I'd say 85% of this dung was filler.

As others have mentioned, laughably long scenes of people hearing others screaming, and looking as if they hear nothing. It reminded me of WCW wrestling with Hulk Hogan seeing the image of the ultimate warrior in his mirror, yet Erik Bischoff couldn't see the warrior. WHA WHA WHAT???

SO, endure this feces at your own risk. You have been warned.

I really wanted to like this film. The plot seemed decent and i found the villains pretty creepy. The acting in this film though is shockingly bad. I mean really, really bad. There isn't a good way to describe it other than it's like watching a high school play, but in all honesty most high school plays have better acting. Marcelle Bowman was the only decent actor in the cast. The dialogue and delivery was just horrible from everyone else in the movie. There are quite a few plot holes as well.

All in all, this could be a good candidate for a remake with some good actors and a new screen writer.
