Savage

Confusion, blood, poor acting, awful dialogue, and a truly terrible soundtrack - these are all factors that should make for a so-bad-it's-good horror film. This is not the case for 'Savage'. Instead it is just bad. Bad, boring and meaningless, and I still have almost no idea what any of the characters said.

Fortunately this isn't a problem because the story is so simple you don't need to hear the cast spouting truly terrible inanities at each other. A man, his pregnant wife and a friend who serves no purpose whatsoever are attacked by cannibals. Everything goes wrong, a (very, very slow) chase through the forest ensues. The end.

I suspect the editor realised the dialogue was useless after filming finished and simply ramped up the volume on the non-stop soundtrack so you couldn't listen even if you wanted to. Instead you are subjected to nearly ninety minutes of a blaring siren that has nothing to do with the movie.

There are no best bits, nothing to commend or to enjoy. This is an utter disaster of a project - which is a shame because I completely understand how difficult it is to make an indie flick. If I were the director, I would leave this one off my resumé.

Don't waste your time.

This movie had a really cool setting with abandoned buildings and various forest locations. The film had a really cool look to it, not really sure how to explain it. The characters were all really cool and there were some intense scenes of people doing disturbing things to each other in order to survive.
