Godzilla Meets The Blair Witch

Rating: 8/10 (19 January 2008)

Godzilla meets The Blair Witch. That pretty much sums the film up. I was reflecting on this flick today and was thinking... "when was the last time you saw a MONSTER flick that was actually scary?" Modern film audiences are so jaded that it's really difficult to creep people out anymore with a creature/monster. This flick actually had me believing maybe this could happen! I actually found myself getting pulled into the story, thinking: What the hell are those things??
There are many very effective scary moments in this movie, and one particular sequence that actually had viewers in my screening jumping out of their seats. Sure, there's moments that don't quite work, the actors are a mixed bag - but overall a very original take on Japansese Kaiju flicks. ALSO: Thumbs up to actress Odette Yustman, who I felt really stood out amongst the cast. Very sexy. Believe performance. Wish they would of shown more nudity though!! Come on, it's a horror film after all!!
