The Curse of the Komodo

7 reviews
3/10

So Lame, Illogical and Trash that Becomes Funny

In the Isla Damas, a group of soldiers lands on the island and are attacked and murdered by a Komodo dragon. Two men, Hanson (Ted Monte) and Jason (J.P.Davis), leave a building surrounded by an electric fence to seek out survivors. They run back to the building and a woman, Rebecca "Becky" (Glori-Anne Gilbert), who is the daughter of the scientist. Nathan Phipps (William Langlois) deactivates the fence. Phipps and his assistant Dawn Porter (Gail Harris) contact the Chief of a Naval Base at Hawaii, Foster (Jay Richardson), to discuss the dragons that are genetically-engineered by them to produce food that have turned into war machines by Foster. Meanwhile, a casino is robbed in Hawaii by the thieves Drake (Paul Logan), Tiffany (Melissa Brasselle), and Reece (Cam Newlin) that flee to Damas using the pilot of helicopter Jack (Tim Abell). Soon they meet Phipps and Dawn shooting at a Komodo dragon and they learn that they need to team-up with the scientists to survive. Further, the contact with a Komodo turns the person onto a zombie. However the fuel of the generator is finishing and Foster does not have the intention of rescuing the group that knows too much about his project Catalyst. How will they survive from the dragons?

"The Curse of the Komodo" is one of those movies so lame, illogical and trash that becomes funny. The plot is absurd and stupid. Why the soldiers have come to the island? If fuel is primordial to keep the protection against the dangerous creatures, why there is not enough fuel and a backup generator? If bullets do not affect the dragons, why the group insists in shooting at the Komodo? In addition the ham acting is hilarious inclusive with the participation of soft-porn actress. My vote is three.

Title (Brazil): "Criaturas" ("Creatures")

Not just cheese, perhaps the biggest wheel of cheese made in 2003.

What is cheese? When it comes to movies "Curse of the Komodo" ranks right up there with Limburger and Fumunda cheese. The plot is thin and the acting is actually ok. The T.N.A. is great, if you like blonde women with nice boobs. Special effects of the Komodo dragons are reminiscent of the 1960's horror movies when compared with contemporary special effects.

If you like lots of gunfire, with out anything being killed, nature walks through a really bad jungle "movie set", corny dialogue and the afore mentioned gratuitous Boobs and butt shots, this movie is a must see.

You'll root for the Komodo

Yet another in a long line of sub-B movies where the cast is so arrogant and annoying that you root for the monster. This couldn't end quickly enough.

Three stars for the unintentional laughs and wholly unnecessary topless bathing scene.
