The Prey: Legend of Karnoctus

Yes, I watched the trailer and that's why I gave it the benefit of the doubt and at least gave it a 2. All you have to do is see the monster to know your kids would laugh at it before begging to turn it off.

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.

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.

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?

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!
