Sludge

Literally, there is nothing to see here in this film. Normally I will give a low/no budget film the benefit of the doubt and will try to watch to the very end. But this film I could only get as far as 15 minutes then turned it off, it was that bad. 9 minutes in and the opening credits start to roll. Before this, a podcaster with a clock ticking so loud to the point it was distracting. The effects were horrid and the acting was very one dimensional. If I could rate this on the negative scale, I would give it a Minus 10, it was that bad.

Imagine the blob creature from ''Creepshow 2'', in walking monster form, with the face of Venom from Spiderman, killing technique of Victor Crowley, that rapes women. You end up with ''Claw''. This reminded me a lot of those Hatchet movies, but with a budget too small to go it's full potential. A lot of the times the kills look very choppy, and it makes me wonder if that was done because of lack of funds. Fortunately you're still able to tell what's going on.

The camera work at times is super shaky for no reason. It seems like the director just graduated from film school, this is his first big project, and he's experimenting with different angles. Overall it's a silly fun b movie

A toxic substance in the woods has created a beast that instantly screws you over. A bunch of students head to the area to take samples and meet really gross deaths in the process.

This one had pretty good make-up effects and gore. A few cheesy CGI effects but over all not bad. The flick suffered however from lack of an interesting plot. After 40 minutes they run out of ideas and the movie fizzles at this point. I did laugh when a guy had been clawed and he starts jumping to get away. I called him a Clawed Hopper!

The ending irked me as well which is why I gave it only two stars. You will feel like your eyes should be Clawed out of your head for witnessing such crap.

If you are watching this because you saw her name don't bother.

There was some potential this film, but in the end, hindered by production and faulty missteps throughout the way, it suffered the usual pitfalls that most films in this genre do. But it had the potential.
