Deadly Species

Now, this most definitely is some sort of "Predator" rip-off. Only, it should have been called "Deadly Chattings (in the Everglades)". Because all the characters in this movie do, is bore you to death by talking and walking around in some jungle. It lasts more than 45 minutes before we finally see a good look at the Predator-like creature. I must admit, this movie at least was better made than the hilariously abominable "Unseen Evil 2 (aka Alien 3000)" and "Alien 51". It even looked a little bit better (more bland & polished) and the cast more or less tried to act this time. The story at least tried to be a bit more serious (though still extremely clichéd and tedious). In the first 10 minutes we already see not one, but two different pairs of naked breasts. And even though the first 80 minutes are pretty much a waste of time, the conclusion during the last 5 minutes was amusing and the best part of the whole movie. The creature-suit and make-up was decent, even though its facial expression looked as dumb as your average Neanderthal. There, at least I did my best to give you some positives about this film.

What another disaster... This movie is about a group of people in college that want to find an old Indian tribe that was thought to be extinct 150 years ago. A professor and some of his students give up their summer vacation (yeah right screw that) to go hunting for this tribe in the Everglades. Originally they couldn't go because they didn't have the money but some random guy that has naked women everywhere in his estate calls and says hey I got money lets go. The catch is, he isn't in it for the educational value but hes trying to find out why his own people never came back because they supposedly had a magical cure for anything, more of an immortality elixer. Anyway, they manage to make it there with a whole 5 minutes...some expedition...hows that cost 30 grand? Anyway, they manage to find out that some creature is making his way about smoking off all but a select few in the end. This is more of a movie for someone who wants to see nudity from the chest up even though the women were not exactly good looking. We will let you watch the movie to see how it runs! But don't waste your money buying it, just go download it somewhere if you can or watch it at someone elses house.

Okay so a research team go out into the Everglades to find a thought extinct tribe of people but run afoul of monsters. Not exactly original stuff.

This heavy b-movie flick keeps the monster to a minimum and thats a shame, this wasn't done for budget reasons as no CGI was used and it was for the purposes of "Effect" then they failed miserably.

With an instantly forgettable cast, recycled plot and a monster that looks like Rawhead Rex (1986) except nude! Deadly Species isn't going to win any awards for....well.....anything but is harmless enough.

It comes under the category of dumb fun, or at least dumb bit of fun.

Cliched, boring in places and never really gets going you can do worse but I can rattle off 100+ movies with similiar plots that deserve your attention more.

The Good:

Cheesy but decent monster

The Bad:

Literally nothing you haven't seen before

Things I Learnt From This Movie:

Rawhead Rex has really let himself go

Someone really should have showed that girl how to hold the rifle

The plot of "Deadly Species" is fairly simple:an expedition to Everglades in search of a lost native tribe The Calusa turns out to be really a search for the mythical fountain of youth.The expedition consists of two university professors,a bunch of nubile students and a photographer as well as the backer who insists he goes along with his muscled security man.Soon some of them start to die killed by mysterious creatures hidden in the Everglades.Surprisingly dull and badly-acted monster movie which lacks gore and scares.The scenery is quite lush and atmospheric plus there are some shots of naked boobs.The climax is hysterical and pretty stupid.Don't waste your time with "Deadly Species".4 tribes out of 10.

that is all I can say. WOW. What a horrible excuse for a movie. I truly wish there was once good thing I could say... well, maybe there is...the poster's kinda cool. The overall concept of the story might have worked, had they found someone to actually write it. Horrible script, full of clichés, horrible photography (half the movie is out of focus), terrible location (have these people ever been to the everglades?) and to top it all... to top it all... hahaha... were did they find those actors? The lead (the doctor) was HORRIBLE! along with everyone else. The only half decent performance was by the financier and his bodyguard.
