Gore, i can handle...... THIS, I can't.....

Rating: 1/10 (14 March 2006)

What? No option for a zero? I had my jacket in my hand ready to walk out after that trailer scene. I'm all for gore, blood, slashing, scary creatures running around, etc... But whoever said that this movie ASSAULTS the audience rather than scares them, is absolutely correct. I didn't feel scared or intensely glued to the screen, i felt offended, misled and completely repulsed at both the content, and myself sitting there watching it. Several people walked out of this movie, I felt very uncomfortable watching it, and was ready to walk out, but decided to try and watch it for sake of feedback, like I'm doing right now.
What can I say?? Apart from a disgusting molestation scene and complete humiliation of the characters, the director was obviously going for rage, pathos and promotions of revenge....but only succeeded in humiliating his audience and himself.
As for the story.... why would these people take some random shortcut a creepy guy that appears to have a stash of collected valuables (clearly not his) suggests??? Give me a break. As for the characters.... it makes no sense that these people would randomly seek out tourists to kill and eat. Why are they even angry? How are they even still alive and surviving generation after generation? They were told about the situation of nuclear testing, told to move for their safety and REMAINED in the area. Ugh...its so senseless...
Terrible movie. The growling and grunting sounds were lame, the "main character" was pathetic, and how does a broken end of a bat stabbed in a diaphragm not kill someone already suffering physical ailments, but an American flag the width of a toothpick does? Oh, right, that was supposed to be clever, or ironic, or something.
Its sad when the hero of the movie and only decent actor is a German shepherd. 'Nuff said.
