Experimento letal

A group of animal rights activists – Jade (Andrea Lui), Tim (Dylan Taylor), Fix (Andrew Hachey) and the hacker Izzy (Kristin Pellerin) – invades the complex of Chapel Pritchard to liberate subjects, with the support of the daughter of Dr. Woods (Andrew Gillies), Ali (Ellen Furey), and her boyfriend and security guard Chris (Edward Furlong). Dr. Woods is in charge of an unsuccessful experiment for the cure of cancer in the facility, and when they use his access card., the security system is activated. They try to escape using an elevator to the underground laboratory, and when the guards trap them, Izzy opens all the doors of the compound trying to provide a escape route for the group. However, she actually liberates an assassin mutant in the same floor as her friends and the guards.

"Warriors of Terra" is an awful collection of clichés with a predictable story repeated in many B-movies with minor variations. The worst are the acting and the characters: Edward Furlong looks like a drugged junkie with a terrible face, in spite of performing a security guard; Jade is a real bitch with her attitudes and Andrea Lui does not have a good performance; Izzy makes grimaces trying to look like an intellectual hacker and Kristin Pellerin also does not have a good performance; Ali makes all of this confusion to call the attention of her father, but Ellen Furey's acting is not bad; Dr. Woods is absolutely unreasonable as a scientist, disclosing his secret experiment to a security guard; Fix smokes marijuana while being chased by the security guards in a ridiculous attitude; and Tim is also an unreasonable character. Do not waste your time watching this movie, you will have a sensation of Déjà vu (for the worse). My vote is three.

Title (Brazil): "Mutação Assassina" ("Assassin Mutation")

WARRIORS OF TERRA may sound like a high-flying fantasy movie, but it is actually an indescribably bad sci-fi flick about a bunch of youngsters who break into a biology lab to rescue animals, only to be confronted by a girl who has been turned into some kind of evil telekinetic. She proceeds to kill everybody she can. Problem is, the special effects are virtually nonexistent, and the creature is not particularly scary. She looks like something left over from THE GRUDGE. The youngsters are played by a bunch of bad actors including Edward Furlong of TERMINATOR 2 fame. Old Eddie hasn't exactly had the most sterling career since T2 (see him in THE VISITATION for another example of his shrill acting). You may safely skip this one. Clever titles and box cover art don't always tell the truth.

This is a rip off of the first Resident Evil movie but made on about a 1000th of the budget.

Compared to a main-stream movie it is cheap, corny, predictable and a bit dull. But as mftv movies goes it is not that bad. The sets are well lit and work has gone into them (I still couldn't quite shake that shot in a studio feeling though), the acting is solid enough and the Nemesis character works well.

The great thing about low budget movies is the writers and directors get a chance to go a little out the box and sometimes what emerges is a unique, innovative movie. Here they have stuck rigidly to a prescribed format and with all the talent and will in the world they could never hope to compete with the big boys.

Before i rent the movie,i checked the DVD case and i thought that this was going to be a nice movie. I WAS F@#@#NG WRONG!!! The story is good but the direction sucks. I thing its the worst movie i 've ever seen... The green like color of the movie was like the color of the Matrix movies and so claustrophobic.MY EYES HURT!!! The acting was so amateurish that i think that i could play in the movie too with my friends. And the ending??? What? The are going to prepare us for a sequel? Let me tell you what I think.I think they ran out of money To conclude, i tell you that.I lost one and a half hour of my life FOR EVER.

Warriors of Terra: 2 out of 10: Alien style movies have been done to death for a very long time. They can still work if A: The creature is decent. B: The gore is decent and C: If the underground fortress/submarine/spaceship the people are trapped on/in contains co-ed showers.

Grudge/Ringu style movies with pasty faced white skinned black haired ghosts that scream like insects has also been done to death. Personally I think that genre is close to spent.

Combining the two is a pretty bad idea. Warriors of Terra takes that already shaky foundation and goes nowhere with it. Needless to say there is no decent gore, no co-ed showers and a pasty ghost girl is not scary except in an OMG there is still another hour left to this movie kind of way.

First time director Robert Wilson has his finger stuck on the annoying effects button so we can never get a clear view of the action. (Guys don't zoom while you're moving the camera).

The plot is that of an animal's right group (Complete with rich daddy's girl, radical ELF terrorist who inexplicably sports a fur collar on her parka, and my favorite cliché hot computer geek who can hack into anything from her Mystery Machine Van headquarters.) attacking the big bad bio-lab. The corporate lab of course has a basement located somewhere around the earths core and is defended by a nerve gas doomsday device. (Are those available at Staples?). You can pretty much write the ending from here.

Michael J Fox look-alike and T2 has-been Edward Furlong looks and acts like a walking cautionary billboard about drug use.

All in all the acting and production values are decent (this is not a filmed with daddy's old camera job) but the Grudge ghost in an Alien flick concept plays even worse than it sounds
