Wild 2 - La caccia è aperta

The film starts with a manager (Nicholas Bell) giving welcome investors (Robert Carradine) to Primal Park . A secret project mutating a primal animal using fossilized DNA, like ¨Jurassik Park¨, and some scientists resurrect one of nature's most fearsome predators, the Sabretooth tiger or Smilodon . Scientific ambition turns deadly, however, and when the high voltage fence is opened the creature escape and begins savagely stalking its prey - the human visitors , tourists and scientific.Meanwhile some youngsters enter in the restricted area of the security center and are attacked by a pack of large pre-historical animals which are deadlier and bigger . In addition , a security agent (Stacy Haiduk) and her mate (Brian Wimmer) fight hardly against the carnivorous Smilodons. The Sabretooths, themselves , of course, are the real star stars and they are astounding terrifyingly though not convincing. The giant animals savagely are stalking its prey and the group run afoul and fight against one nature's most fearsome predators. Furthermore a third Sabretooth more dangerous and slow stalks its victims.

The movie delivers the goods with lots of blood and gore as beheading, hair-raising chills,full of scares when the Sabretooths appear with mediocre special effects.The story provides exciting and stirring entertainment but it results to be quite boring .The giant animals are majority made by computer generator and seem totally lousy .Middling performances though the players reacting appropriately to becoming food.Actors give vigorously physical performances dodging the beasts ,running,bound and leaps or dangling over walls . And it packs a ridiculous final deadly scene. No for small kids by realistic,gory and violent attack scenes . Other films about Sabretooths or Smilodon are the following : ¨Sabretooth(2002)¨by James R Hickox with Vanessa Angel, David Keith and John Rhys Davies and the much better ¨10.000 BC(2006)¨ by Roland Emmerich with with Steven Strait, Cliff Curtis and Camilla Belle. This motion picture filled with bloody moments is badly directed by George Miller and with no originality because takes too many elements from previous films. Miller is an Australian director usually working for television (Tidal wave, Journey to the center of the earth, and many others) and occasionally for cinema ( The man from Snowy river, Zeus and Roxanne,Robinson Crusoe ). Rating : Below average, bottom of barrel.

I was expecting little from Attack of the Sabretooth, and got very little. Even with its major problems somehow it is not SyFy's worst or among them. The only real redeeming quality is Robert Carradine, who has been better but at least tries his best with bad lines and a clichéd character. The rest of the acting is awful, especially from the teenagers, ranging from bland to ridiculously over-the-top. In all honesty though they are not helped by the terribly stilted writing which does nothing to develop the characters or make us care about their situation, and how stereotypically and annoyingly their characters are written, at the end of the day you don't give a toss about these people. The story is also a mess, predictable, dully paced and also derivative of Jurassic Park but without the excitement and thrills. And visually Attack of the Sabretooth looks very cheap, with choppy editing and effects so bad and fake that you can't help but laugh. There is a lot of gore, but excessive and cheap-looking at that, part of the reason why the death scenes seemed so poorly done as well the lack of any real sense of terror or suspense. Overall, a really bad movie but despite its many problems I've seen worse. 2/10 Bethany Cox

ATTACK OF THE SABRETOOTH is another cheesy-as-hell Sci-Fi Channel special, a low budget monster flick in which a few poorly-acting cast members are hounded by a dodgy CGI creation which inevitably whittles them off one at a time. This one's an open rip-off of JURASSIC PARK, with the action set on a remote tropical island which is host to a new tourist attraction: genetically engineered sabretooth tigers. Inevitably, the beasts escape, with the usual ensuing bloodshed.

This is as silly as it sounds and yet it's also plenty of fun, as is the way with these cheap 'n' cheerful B-flicks. The CGI animation of the sabretooth is just about passable, but eclipsed by an extraordinarily dodgy statue animation which looks like it belongs in a console game circa 1995. Why they couldn't have just built a real statue out of papier mache or something I don't know - it would have been ten times as convincing.

Inevitably there are plenty of laugh-out-loud moments from the bad actors and the silly death scenes, and at least there's some low rent gore to be enjoyed here. The only slightly familiar face in the cast is that of Robert Carradine, the least well known of the Carradine family to begin with. The good news is that ATTACK OF THE SABRETOOTH is short and to the point, over before you have a chance to get irritated by it.

i don't think that this movie is quite as bad as most of the people say on here, yeah the acting ain't the greatest, and the plot is stretched to say the least, but what do you honestly expect when you rip off Jurassic Park .. come on people.. this time it's the dreaded Sabre Tooth Tiger there are 3 total in the movie,, and one is just plain ugly and deformed, the kids in this movie are on a scavenger hunt, and disable the security system, leaving pandora's box wide open for the large feline species to get out of their habitat. I really had a laugh when the first guy messed up and chased his piece of porno mag into the secured gate area, upon trying to fetch it he winds up as the main course for one of the cats, overall i wish people wouldn't bash this , it wasn't intended to be a blockbuster,, it was on sci-fi late at night . so folks what does that tell you..

Where to begin? the special effects should be named special defects, When the director shouted "action" I guess he also indicated to the actors to carry out the worst performance they could think of. Maybe he was annoyed with the producers and wanted to make sure that they would not recover a single cent out of their investment and that the work would be a case study of how not to make movie. Or maybe he hated art school and wanted to be an accountant but his family did not let him.

The only thing that is sure that whoever employs him in the future is because its in love with him (so its objectivity jumped through the window) or because he changed its name and deleted all past previous references.
