It has finally happened. The animal kingdom has had enough, and mankind is doomed!
RISE OF THE ANIMALS shows us an all-too-possible future, when the creatures we've taken for granted rise up and eat our faces off!
A trio of survivors, including Wolf (Greg Hoople) the pizza guy, must fight their way through marauding hordes of deer-puppets with antlers thirsty for blood, and CGI squirrels of certain death!
Soaked in oceans of gore, the world has become a hunting ground for vengeful wildlife out to settle the score once and for all!
Think of this movie the next time you go around depleting the ozone layer, motherf-----!...

This movie has some unforgettable moments in it that makes it so memorable. I won't spoil anything but some of the scenes were so hilarious I will always keep thinking about it. Also a plus for their effects, they did the best what they could :-). The only thing that could've been bit better were some of story parts. During the middle of the film it became a bit boring and some parts were totally illogical but of course you can live with it because of the comedy part.
It might have been even better if they explained the cause why they started attacking humans but of course that adds more mystery to the movie.
I would give it a 7.5!

Faultless acting, complex plot, ground-breaking special effects, scary and realistic monsters and seamless editing are all noticeably absent from this movie.
Anybody making negative comments is missing the point, and a few brain cells. This film sets out to be the worst animal horror film of all time, and despite stiff competition from the likes of Grizzly Rage it succeeds.
There are far too many movies that try hard to be everything this is not, and fail miserably. Those are the truly awful films. This one at least is honest.
Where I mark it down from 10 to 7 is that it is probably intended to be a parody of cheesy horror flicks, but doesn't quite make it as such.
Anybody fed up with the pretentious twaddle that budget horror movies so often are, should find this highly amusing. The cast are likable and not actually bad actors (well maybe some of them are). Motta is particularly watchable, and I loved her encounter with a horse.
Take it for what it is and enjoy it.

Rise of the Animals is 2011's crowning achievement. From it's big budget CGI that could rival James Cameron's "Avatar" to it's compelling acting, no greater found even in "There Will Be Blood". RotA is a flawless cinematic masterpiece.
This instant classic cult film, started off really strong and controversial. I'd go as far as to say, you will not see it coming. the acting may be sub par, but that is where this movie shines the most. from quirky characters, to methed out lovers, the cast really captures it all.
My favorite part was the climax and also the resolution at the same time. What other film does that? To have such important story telling elements happen at the same time... why is this movie not presented in film schools?
By the end of the film, you will feel your heart racing as you quickly search the room with your eyes wondering where the closest animal is. Don't just watch this movie.. study it, breathe it, and don't forget... rise of the animals.
Greg, if you're working on any other big projects like this- I know a few people that would be interested.

Okay I gave it a 2 because it got me fooled. And I laughed! But not from the comedy. I laughed at how horrible this movie was made. Perhaps they intended this to be so stupid and faulty to entertain us. 30-40 seconds into the movie you will see what I mean. There was this spotted cat going berserk in a kitchen, lady holding a frying pan in fear. The cat suddenly jumps on her, and wham! She hits the cat (that looked like an all white teddy bear) that slams into the sink. Couldn't they just have tried to paint the stuffed thing with black spots to look like it was the cat? I can do better special effects and props in my backyard without breaking a sweat. So maybe I'm missing out on something about modern comedy. It's an adventure. The adventure of your lifetime getting ripped off on this foolish story. Horror. Oh the horrors of films made like this. I thought movies made in the Philippines were utterly horrible. Great work guys. You actually made Philippine movies look better. If you got nothing else on a Saturday night, and are prepared for the worse entertainment in the history of film making, suspend disbelief and just drink till your eyes get sucked in your skull and can't finish the movie? Then this is one of those movies out there just for you. Oh yeah, there are more of this I can assure you.
