Feast

In a remote bar, costumers are advised by a newcomer to seal the place since hunger monsters will attack them in a couple of minutes. The man is immediately devoured and the clients organize a strategy to defend the place under siege of deadly creatures.

"Feast" does not have story, but it is gruesome, gore, trash and funny. There are no explanations about the origin of the monsters, but disgusting and nasty special effects in the fast-paced and ridiculous attacks of the creatures that does not give time for thinking how silly the story is. The conclusion is a great joke, with a hook for a possible sequel. My vote is six.

Title (Brazil): "Banquete no Inferno" ("Feast in Hell")

This is one of the movies that terrified me as a kid watching TV late night. The third movie in the trilogy was often aired so I got to see a few times. The first one is good. You'll get a laugh or two out of this. It has stereotypes, one liners, monsters, a bit of everything. It's the perfect movie for a rainy night. 7/10

Unlike most such films, in FEAST, the action starts almost immediately and continues almost unbroken, except for brief moments to catch our breath. It's a fantastic monster movie filled with sudden, ferocious attacks and grisly slaughter.

The monsters themselves are perfectly hideous, bringing the pain in massive amounts. Their human prey are no pushovers. The ensuing battle for survival is grueling and apocalyptic.

FEAST is fast, bloody, and intense. It's also got a wicked sense of humor. Grueling fun from start to finish...

I made it to a screening of "Feast" at the International Horror Sci-Fi Film Festival in Arizona on October 23rd. I was really into the Project Greenlight show and from watching the show, I still didn't know what to expect from the film. It wasn't too long into the movie that I realized, even if you watched every episode of Project Greenlight as I did, you still don't see this coming. The movie was great! I sat back in my seat and went for a ride. It wasn't even 100% completed yet. A couple of scenes were too dark and it didn't have any credits. But it was so entertaining. They made this project for the horror genre, and they aren't going to let anyone down. There is so much blood, gore, and action in this film. The action sequences were a sight to see on the big screen. I was truly blown away with how good everything came out. John was there with his girlfriend Diane and one of the writers. They did a Q&A after the screening and were very outgoing with the audience. After the screening they joined me and a bunch of Arizona talent at a nearby bar to hang out. He answered questions and was very cool to chat with. I hope they don't have any problems with getting this movie into theaters nation wide. It's a fun story with everything you want in a horror movie. You have to check it out when you get the chance.

Feast knows that it's a dirty, trashy, low-budget monster movie and it excels at being just that.

I personally rank it up there with some of the great meta horror movies like Cabin in the Woods and Evil Dead 2.

The beginning does a great job playing with your expectations before subverting them in the most over-the top way possible and sets the perfect tone for the rest of the movie.

Fans of practical creature effects, splatter house gore, and raunchy humor will be delighted by this simple, bare-bones, straight to the point plot and dark humor.

Don't go in expecting a deep story, just enjoy the campy madness of a bunch of one-note characters struggling to avoid becoming monster chow.
