catastrophically inept
Breathtakingly dumb, this execrable micro-budgeted, dialogless loser pits insipid teens (played by ugly 30 year olds)against embarassing $10 cgi monster effects. Mangled action scenes and half baked dialogue are the highlights of this puke for brains wretched mess. A bloodless phony that hardcore pornography couldn't even help! Just plain crummy! Flush it, or suffer and learn.
MONSTER MAYHEM!!!
Holy Rabid Land Shark! This flick rocks! The first good horror film I've seen since The Sadist, and that was a good fifty horror films ago. I am a junkie for this sort of film, and my appetite is insatiable. I will watch horror flick after horror flick, indiscriminate of plot, budget, cast, or credentials, just to get my fix. I've seen many a bad, bad, BAD horror film, but I tally forth in the hope of finding that really cool one to tell my friends about.
And finally, after a long dry spell I have found one that is pretty darn entertaining. Sort of Friday the 13th meets Jaws meets Army Thriller of the Week, this monster flick has a lot going for it. For one thing, you got Tom Savini as a wild-eyed mad scientist, and he's his groovy charismatic Savini self in this. We also get the one and only Bill "CHOP-TOP" Moseley as a simmering military guy (only a cameo), and the red headed inbreed kid from Pumpkin Head is the film's hero! We get to see Tom Savini beat up Pumpkin Head Boy! All right!
The plot isn't very original (forest monster eats people), but while most film's of this type wallow in unnecessary subplots (Monopoly in Friday 13th anyone?) keeping the horror in the background, this one sticks to the point, has some pretty good action, and ACTUALLY SHOWS THE MONSTER!! How many films have I seen where it's supposed to be about a monster eating people, but nothing happens, in this film, HORRIBLE THINGS HAPPEN!, people are munched and mauled and the gore flies, leaving the Gore Hound in you feeling satisfied. And dare I say, it has some suspense to boot, dare i say it? I DARE SAY IT! what more can you ask for in this type of film! Blood and death and unnerving coolness.
Rent this flick! a great B-MOVIE MONSTER MASH to enjoy with friends and flick brews.
FIGHT EVIL!

Beware the cheesiness
Just overall sub par. CGI was god awful. Acting was pretty terrible as well. Story line is typically ridiculous. More of a college made film.
Very Good!
This film was put together very well. The editing was wonderful. Matt Green has a great eye when it comes to the angles and feel of the film. I think the Sci-Fi channel should premier it SOON, hear that SCI-FI..HUH? Great Film!!!!
Absolute Garbage truck material, Burn it, & bury it !
Not the best CGI monster in the world but it was a fun film to watch. Brian Bremer from Pumpkinhead did a very good job as well as Savini. Tom was not as good as he was in From Dusk Til Dawn but this is not a Robert Rodriguez film either. Film Bashers beware! Nobody takes you serious. These guys spent a lot of time and effort into making this film and it does show. I am sure with a bigger budget it could have been better but that is why we call them low budget films. I would have liked to se Savini a little more hands on with the effects but I understand he is more into acting now and that's cool. The effects were not all that bad anyhow! Cudos guys. Even though the monster on the DVD cover looks nothing like the one in the film, well that's the fault of the distributor and their marketing department. Not bad though...not bad!
Did you know
- TriviaThere was originally a full-scale animatronic monster built for the film. Unfortunately, by the time the film was ready to be shot, the creature wasn't finished. The head was, however, and the close-up of the creature or shots with just the head exposed are all animatronic, the rest finished with CG that writer/director Matt Green condones.
