...not slight on the increasing cliches

Posted : 12 years, 6 months ago on 22 October 2011 08:08

really i can't buy into this. on one hand the gore is pretty good, but on the other hand the premise is very weak. worse, there seems to be heavy reference that this was intended to be a comedy, but it never gives in and lets it be. thats the fatal flaw here. if this was pure campy cheese, it could've been fun as hell, but for whatever reason it tries to hard to be serious. and frankly whoever made this can't keep their finger on continuity at all.

by the end of this movie (and boy is it a bad ending!) the same people had to have been killed a number of times over. which perhaps isn't a problem except they appear to kill people, who show up again and have none of the wounds they should have had. i can't imagine how many errors are made in this film. take for instance the end where the main scientist gets sucked out of the plane (because someone else opened the door....and as we all know this can't actually happen). and then some time later....even if its just moments....the plane starts to go down and then crash lands....cut to the same damn guy (or rather half of him) getting up right next to the surprisingly well intact plane. what? whatever?

seriously if this film was funnier it'd be better. theres ample camp material already and we could overlook the horrid acting and the spoken plot devices (wow thats some stiff writing!)

i don't know. its worth watching if you're in the mood for dumb horror with a decent bit of gore but don't expect to be blown away....and the endind scene will definitely leave you a bit miffed.

Oh my...this movie has some really bad acting. It feels like a made-for-TV movie with a bunch of actors who don't even seem to know how to act - even though some of them have been seen in other movies, and have shown they CAN act.

I don't know why they did such a poor job with the acting in this movie. It has the potential to be so much better than it is. (I am sitting here watching it right now).

Also, because of the lack of anything truly gory/grusome, I really think this was a made-for-TV movie. I would have loved to have watched a better production of this movie. For what it is, it's watchable, but barely because of the REALLY awful acting jobs done by everyone in the cast.
