After terrorizing the Dutch with a living elevator, a canal-dwelling slasher, and an evil Sinterklaas, rebellious filmmaker Dick Maas returned with a more natural kind of killer. The people of Amsterdam are not under attack by a mere animal; a displaced predator is on the prowl. The blood trail of Prooi (Prey) starts outside the city where a family is brutally slaughtered in the middle of the night. It doesn’t take more than a glimpse of the massacre before a local zoo veterinarian determines the culprit. A lion is on the loose, and it’s heading deeper and deeper into the concrete jungle.

When the Netherlands said they can’t compete with Hollywood movies, Maas set out to prove them wrong. And since then, the audacious auteur has succeeded — his brand of absurd and entertaining filmmaking is enjoyed by not only the Dutch but also the rest of the world.

We have a brand new trailer for Uncaged. It's not important that you've heard of this movie before now, it's quite likely that most people haven't. What is important is that this movie features a large, hungry and violent lion on a rampage that is basically walking along the exact same lines as Jaws, but with a jungle cat instead of a shark. Does it matter that it's a low-budget creature feature instead of an immaculately crafted, all-timer blockbuster? That's for the viewer to decide.

The trailer kicks off by showing us some agents investigating a brutal crime scene, in which, a couple was ripped to shreds by an as-of-yet unidentified beast. Spoilers, it's a big lion. The frequency and intensity of the incidents increase as authorities wrestle with the notion of how to deal with the crisis before a specialist is called in to handle it. The whole thing...

"Amazing how one lion can stop an entire city." 4 Digital Media has released a new Us trailer for a horror B-movie titled Uncaged, which is the official Us title for a movie also known as Prey (or Prooi in Dutch). This already opened in The Netherlands in 2016, but has never had a Us release - until now. It's heading to VOD in March, if anyone wants to catch it. The movie is about a zoo veterinarian who gets caught up in a grisly adventure as she finds herself leading the city-wide hunt for a monstrous lion terrorizing the Dutch capital of Amsterdam. No one believes her when she figures out it's a lion, but the attacks keep happening. Uncaged stars Sophie van Winden, along with Julian Looman, Mark Frost, Wesley Mutsaars, and Victor Löw. This doesn't seem that good, but it does remind me of all the killer animal films from the 80s.
