The Forgotten Ones

I only created an account here in Imdb just to say this...

This movie is awful, literally the worst movie i ever seen ( and i seen a lot), the movie doesn't have any sense, doesn't explain anything and all the deaths of the Characthers are off-screen

Im kinda depressed now, because i lost 90 minutes of my life i never get back

I apologize for my english, im not a native speaker.

It is hard to fill ten lines of comment for this movie. What has to be said? Well, the monsters are monstrous, the girl pretty (in some common way), the island mysterious. All of them do their job. Cinematography is not that bad, you just get the sense of people lost in a wild forest. Of course the writer had to fill some space with irrelevant anthropology about characters that are not even mean enough to deserve such misfortune or so nice to make you cry. As a matter of facts monsters look more interesting and complex. I would have liked that some destiny, or original sin had pushed the humans to that place. It would have meant some stars more.

The plot summary on the back sounded somewhat interesting, so I rented this one tonight. I just finished watching it.

Overall, there's just not much to say about it. Everything is slightly worse than mediocre. The movie falls into that ugly gap between being so bad it's entertaining and being an honestly good movie. The four "characters" are basically non-existent and there's close to no background about the "monsters". Speaking of those, they aren't even especially gruesome in any way, neither regarding their looks nor their practices. The film tries to get some tension going, but it just didn't work for me at all. The plot is as foreseeable as it could be right from the start, not a single surprise to be found and the ending is very, very... unsatisfying.

After watching this my conclusion is that this movie is almost a rip off of the first Predator movie .The monsters for instance bare a certain resemblance to the original Predator .They're all tall and they're blind .In the original Predator the alien had Infa Red vision .I did'nt care much for the characters either they were all pretty much disgustingly spoiled obnoxious individuals.Even more unbelievable that all the burly male characters were all dispatched of pretty easily and the only remaining character is the skinny woman who manages to outsmart this tribe of monsters and after being flung around by the alfa male of the tribe manages to decapitate him making her the new leader of the tribe.Total nonsense.

Let me start off by saying that this movie is in no way a gore filled Slasher movie nor a big budget monster film. What it is however is a very decent low budget thriller. The special effects on the "monsters" (for lack of a better word) and the rest of the film, are above average for movies that don't have a lot of money. The script, though slightly boring and a little on the lame side as far as the characters go, was actually not bad overall. The actors were decent enough although not entirely believable in the situation. However, Jewel Staite definitely stands out as the best and most believable in her role. She is absolutely one of the most beautiful and sexy, underrated actors around. I don't really see why she wasn't recast in the newer version that they are making.
