Zarkorr! The Invader

OK, so it's a silly movie, but I think they knew that when they made it. And there are some neat little twists on the otherwise tired, overdone "Godzilla"-type genre. Borrowed a tape just because I knew someone in it, but I did loan it out to a couple pals, who also kinda liked it.

This movie stinks. IMDb needs negative numbers in its rating system to properly evaluate this turkey. The acting is either wooden or over the top; the film was apparently NOT written by anyone in particular; and the monster scenes were mediocre at best. Even as a movie driven solely by the monster scenes, those shots were so disappointing that they could not inspire any sympathy for the rest of the movie. I want the 80 minutes of my life back that this movie stole.

Aliens let lose a giant monster named Zarkorr, then send down a hologram that looks your average stupid teenage girl to tell postman, Tommy Ward (Rhys Pugh, in the only movie you ever see him in) that has been chosen to fight. Also if he loses the plant goes doom, so he goes off to fight Zarkorr the Invader! This movie is bad, very bad. So bad it you need negative numbers just to gave it a rattan. Horridly written, bad directing, way below Power Rangers over-the-top wooden acting that you're just whiting for a horde of Lumberjacks to come out of no where and cut them down! And don't get me started on the theme song at the end. The people who made this stemming pall of S$@# should not be aloud near a camera or any thing to do with films. Zarkorr is a cool looking monster that should have been in a movie a million times better than this one. Do your self a favour and don't see this movie, it's 80 or so minute of life. The actors that are in this never worked again by way.

3/10

If you are looking for King Kong, you mispelled your search! This is a low-low budget movie that was soley >ment to entertain people in a comic sense. Here is the >most ordinary human who is the only 1 who can save the >world from a 185' 300 ton behmouth. Surely you can see the humor in that.

Yes, this movie sucks. But it's still a lot of fun to watch. Especially if you want to get rid of those annoying friends who only hang around you because they think your taste in films is "unique" and "cool", and they think the language you speak is "hip". Basically, if you've got someone hanging around you trying to absorb your personality, invite them over and make them watch Zarkorr! with you. This movie is loaded with inside jokes of a bizarre nature that the uninitiated simply WILL NOT GET. Come ON! An alien race presents itself to a postal worker, in the guise of a tiny mall chick? No one else found that funny? Or the interviews FOLLOWING the film, where the director EXPLAINS the monster camera angle? Don't see this film to entertain yourself. Rent this film to get rid of stragglers and door-to-door evangelists!
