A waste on the big screen
By postmanwolf (2 reviews) from Glasgow , 16 Oct 2008[Highly rated reviewer]
I would urge anyone to wait for this on dvd, as the big screen experience truly ruins its potential for several reasons.
Every jarringly bad and repetive crab hand kill shows how ropey the CG is. The other people in the audience get rather annoyed when you splutter with laughter into your pocorn at the atrocious dialouge and plot exposition. The cold dread of standing under a 30 foot tall Ron Perlman with the camera angle shoved up his already gargantuan nostrils. The creeping terror in the pit of your stomach that maybe someone stole this story out of the notebook of sci-fi movies you used to write in school when you were 15 and this is all now some elaborate joke that all your childhood termentors have now come back to play on you by making this into a film and proving to the world that none of the girls should kiss you and everyone thinks you smell.
This is a film that should be enjoyed in darkened room with a small group of like minded friends with open minds to such dreadful monstrous deeds of cinema as dracula 3000, house of the dead and southland tales.
I feel I may be overstating the fact slightly, but I left this film after 48 minutes (by the time the 3rd voiceover to further the plot came in) and I have sat through the entirety of various other terrible films in the cinema. This is only up there with curly sue starring james belushi. Well done simon hunter.
I have already got it reserved under my masochism range. That is why 1 star, as i know i will watch it again. I hate myself.- Was this review helpful to you?

(135)Disapointingly painful
By a customer , 02 May 2012Saw the actors that I like thought it was going to be worth watching. Much to my horror, too gory. Only got through the first 15 mins or so, couldnt watch anymore. Certainly not for the faint hearted.- Was this review helpful to you?

I shouldn't really comment but...
By Pankytap (12 reviews) , 30 Jan 2012[Highly rated reviewer]
I can't fully comment on the film as I only saw the first 15 minutes or so. The opening 'war/fight' scenes were of poor technical and acting quality and as soon as I saw Ron Perlman in a monk's habit I couldn't take anymore and returned the film. Sorry but this is a no-no from me...- Was this review helpful to you?
