The Prey: Legend of Karnoctus

The trailer alone reveals how bad the film is.

---------------------------------------------------------- Low budget with a cheap, embarrassing monster.

-------------------------------------------------------- There are bad actors that include a C-movie.

Boy this movie dragged on...awful acting..semi decent monster, but the worst acting ever! I wouldn't pay $2 to watch this again! Heck you couldn't pay me to watch this dreck.. precede with caution!

The dude literally goes around asking to star in the worst movies possible.

I think his first question to any role is "Is it going to be crap? Then I'm in it!" I like the guy and enjoy his movies, but damn!

Tho tbh... he wasn't really in this movie.

I'd given the movie a higher rating had it not been for the fluctuations in the monster power... At one point It has the power to crush skulls, at a different moment It's throwing punches with a weak old man and the old man isn't even bothered by the punches of the creature that crushed a skull as if it was a deteriorated old balloon.

You don't go making a running film where the bad guy runs 200km/h at one point and then at a different point, can barely keep up with a guy running 30km/h...

OK, a fun campy movie that isn't winning any Oscars, watchable for a rainy Saturday.

But I have never seen so much crap in the reviews. Lets admit the issues, give credit where due and trash the BS.

Yeah, you will only see Trejo for the first few minutes. But that does not take away from many of the actors which are good (not great) although the script they have to work to is so-so at best. But they keep the movie moving enough. Lots of time spent in tunnels so not a ton of scenery (what do you expect from a low budget film). So ditch the 1 star complaints.

As to the major BS from all 8s, 9s, and 10 star reviews, look at the reviewers. Most only reviewed one movie and gave it a 10?! Hmm, smells like a friend or family of one of the crew?

I love a good B movie and this was firmly at the bottom end of the scale.

I should have known as soon as I saw Danny Trejo's name. He's the kiss of death for any film.

The dialogue is terrible. The opening scene to introduce us to the cast, is unbelievably bad. Some of the acting is sub-par. The effect aren't great... but somehow, if you take all that into consideration and know what you're going in to, it's bearable. There's just too much creeping through the caves whispering to each other and not hearing gunshots around the corner, despite being deep in a cave system.

I opened with 'the dialogue is terrible', but it's well worth enduring this film just to bear witness to Nick Chinlund perfectly delivering what might be the best action movie one-liner in cinema history, just before his climactic fight.

All in all, it's a fairly decent, low budget, monster flick, as long as you go into it knowing what to expect.
