i think someone else mentioned they had recently seen this movie b/c one of the crew from dog soldiers was connected and this is why i gave it a chance. if anything i thought it would be good campy fun.... shit, was i wrong. i can't say how much i'm sick of the stereotypical teen cast: stoner, nice guy, jock, slut, smart sexy girl, etc. if writers have to keep pumping out this crap they could at least put in someone out of the ordinary, like a crackhead transvestite or something. the only thing i liked about this movie was the of the horrendous dialogue b/twn the stoners and the slut and also the scene where the hippie, smoking peyote hallucinates the creature as a cartoon. other than that the death scenes were laughable, the plot was paper thin, and the creature!!! that was the most enjoyable part of the film for me; seeing a guy run around on all fours in a bear costume w/ a huge-genetically mutated tasmanian devil mask was hysterical. needless to say the movie was an hour and a half, i finished it in 45 mins. not even reggie banister could save this movie.
