The Invisible Raptor

This movie is incredible campy and filled with crude language, idiotic dialog, asinine plot points, and the all time cheapest monster yet. On the plus side a couple of performances were somewhat worthwhile. Most all of the annoying unconvincing characters meet their end with the invisible raptor. The gore is surprisingly well done. The more you watch the more absurd it becomes. None of the characters feel the slightest bit authentic. The sound effects, audio and music was well done. Nobody can take any of this film seriously. And you will probably find it's an exercise in patience to watch all the way to the end.

Just watched this earlier tonight and didn't quite know what I was gonna get. It felt a bit cheesy and lowbudgetty from the name and description..and, to be fair...it IS both of those things BUT what I didn't know was how really well acted and funny it was going to be.

The movie 'feels' like a much bigger production than I think it is and I think that's in part due to writing, acting and cinematography - all which were above par.

I really enjoyed it. A lot more than most movies I've seen this year. I gave it a well deserved 8.

Check it out for yourself.

I have forced 2 people to watch this movie. They came in kicking and screaming, but in no time they were all in. As I said in the title, this movie knows exactly what it's doing. It's refreshing, it's hilarious, and is easily the best movie I've seen in 2024. Mostly practical effects, actual actors and extras. It might sound strange to some but the less blue room acting the better. It was fun to watch and written well.

Spielberg references are everywhere and the actors have great chemistry. It's hard not to spoil you, there are so so many soon to be classic scenes. I gave this film a 10, it's more like an 9 but I can already tell I'll be watching this movie many more times. That's worth the ten. Thank you for the amazing movie!!

A parodic love-letter to the films of Steven Spielberg, most notably Jurassic Park and Jaws (see if you can spot all of the references), The Invisible Raptor sees a small town menaced by a genetically-modified, invisible, prehistoric apex predator, which has escaped from a top secret scientific facility. Paleontologist/theme park employee Dr. Grant Walker (Mike Capes) realises the situation and, together with workmate Deniel 'Denny' Denielson (David Shackelford) and ex-flame Amber (Caitlin McHugh, he tries to track down the dinosaur.

The 'invisible' action figure used to promote The Invisible Raptor is a stroke of genius, far smarter than anything in the actual movie. As the title suggests, the film is intentionally dumb, but sadly the majority of the humour is incredibly weak, leaving it up to the cartoonish splatter to do the heavy lifting. The gore, when it happens (mostly in the second half of the film), is a lot of fun, a mixture of practical and CGI (an unnecessary evil when dealing with an invisible creature tearing people apart); the sight of people having their limbs removed by the titular dinosaur makes the film just about worthwhile, the effects being surprisingly effective for such a low budget production.

Also, this is the only film I know of that you can see an old woman in a chicken costume being rogered by an invisible dinosaur, so there's that!

5.5/10, rounded down to 5 for the runtime of almost two hours, which is waaay too long for this kind of nonsense.

No pun intended - what an amazing, simple and yet effective idea. You have a raptor that no one can see ... I mean it is in the title ... and we get to ... well "see" him quite early on. And we also get to see Sean Astin ... in a cameo role in the beginning. It starts off being quite weird and out there (while being caged of course) .... and only goes crazier than that.

The filmmakers were there and they are as fun as the movie would suggest. Now this is not for sensitive souls or people who are easily offended. There are jokes here (some including at the expense of children) that do cross a line ... but this is a movie ... it wants to offend, it wants to even gross out to a degree ... it goes places other movies might not dare ... and it does a great job maintaining one tone throughout ... and for that alone you should love ... hopefully! Again, your sense of humor and your threshold when it comes to where a low point is ... joke wise ... will be important in your enjoyment ... I wouldn't mind getting more of these ... as in sequels and all that.

I told the main actor and the screen writer they should do a double bill - this movie and Tammy and the T-Rex ... I think it would be awesome! If you are about to enjoy this (as in if that is actually happen): you are welcome! This might very well end in my movies of the year list ... not much story ... just on the hunt ... with some romance and a killer raptor on the loose ...
