The Ultimate Killing Machine is about four kids that are recruited as test subjects into a secret army program that will change them into killing machines. The procedure involves stem cell treatments that enhance the physical attributes of the subjects making them very powerful and also horny. The kids aren't aware that they are test subjects until they start coming back from training with holes in the back of their necks. They figure it isn't such good training when one of the original test subjects breaks free and reeks havoc throughout the installation killing everything in sight except the kids at first. The ultimate battle takes place and the results need to be seen. Relatively good acting, sick script, good cinematography and directing.

I got sucked into this because of Michael Madsen, who is working hard to get to his 200th film appearance. He may have well over a dozen appearances this year alone. This was not one of his best, but it was certainly in character and an easy paycheck.

The Army is having problems finding soldiers. Instead of getting out of Iraq, they turn to scientists to develop the Ultimate Fighting Machine. Holy Universal Soldier Batman! Nothing original here.

They experiment with a real war hero (Simon Northwood), but he is too advanced, so they recruit a jock, a nerd, a slut, and a neurotic virgin. War hero gets loose and carnage begins. There is a lot of blood; even a ripped off face, but there just isn't enough action to keep things interesting.

The complete lack of titillation makes this a chase for the out of control machine while the new recruits run around trying to escape. It is probably in the Wat-Mart $5 bin right now. Save your money and watch Near Dark again.

Two guys Waylon and Buddy and two girls Zoe and Carrie decide to join the army.Unfortunately for them they quickly realize that they are the objects of a medical experiment facility with a doctor who plans on turning them into ultimate killing machines."UKM:The Ultimate Killing Machine" is pretty bad.The somewhat intriguing story loses steam after the first fifteen minutes.One of the first test subjects becomes crazy and escapes from his cell going on a killing spree in the military compound squeezing heads of soldiers and occasionally peeling off people's faces.The film lacks suspense and interesting characters and quickly becomes silly.I can't believe that Michael Madsen appeared in this crappy flick.4 out of 10.

Military experiment on unknowing test subjects in this beyond lame heavily clichéd horror flick. Horrid acting, lousy special effects, a moronic plot line, and Michael Madsen collide in what can arguably be said is the worst movie I've seen this year. Mr. Madsen, did you really need the money this bad??? Tp make matters worse all of the characters are horribly annoying and make the minutes I wasted on this festering turd stretch on and on forever making it seem like an eternity. Make no doubt about it, this movie is bad with a capital B in every possible or conceivable way.

My Grade: F

this was one of...no wait, THE worst movie ever made with a budget of about 1.99 CDN. whoever gave rated this movie above 3/10 must have been a) high b) dumber than Forrest Gump c) retarded beyond belief LICK THE Enemy LOL LMFAO Michael Madsen should be ashamed for being in this movie. did he have to pay off some mafia debt or what? i see no other reason for his appearance. i have just wasted an hour 25 minutes of my life watching this disgrace of a movie. i wish i saw some random commercials on TV instead.what a piece of junk. in fact i think my IQ lowered by 10 points after watching this movie. throughout the entire film i hoped that it would turn into a porno to make it at least somewhat interesting, but instead they had the beginning of a sex scene and guess what, the guy turns the girl down because HE does not know if it's really her who wants to bang him or if it was the "adrenaline gland" messing her up and making her have "sexual urges".

Another embarrassment to Canadian film making. I think it was supposed to have some humour, but again first rule about being funny: don't try to be funny. Also, the acting was terrible, how anyone justifies putting the time in to do something like this and then some other jerk justifies buying it and then some idiot at Rogers justifies putting it on the air? I don't know. To the actors of this film, take some acting lessons and dig deep, because the audience deserves it. Acting is not easy and if you think you've done it here, you should probably quit. The whole thing is terrible. Terrible. Terrible. I could not even get past the first ten minutes. Michael Madsen is a good actor, but even the editing and shot selection made him look kind of weak.

I have seen a lot of bad movies in my time, I Spit On Your Grave, Exorcist II, Ghostdog... This film makes them all look like blockbusters! The acting was comical, I wasn't sure if they were making an attempt at humour or they were just so perplexed by the script that it came out that way.

The film seemed to start in the middle and then end! There was no start or finish, I can't see anyone seriously enjoying this film, it's not even got the 'This film is so, bad watch it' catchphrase attached to it, it is THAT BAD.

This could have easily been a decent film, if:

A)They had written a proper script rather than putting one together in 3 minutes. B)Had a budget over £10 C)The actors could act

A suggestion.. Do not watch this film, and don't expect Mr Madsen to appear in anything worth watching again.

UKM is one of those movies that we have all seen before. An obvious storyline with obvious characters that are going to do obvious things. But, the movie does movie along at a nice pace, and, if you are into cheap thrills can be very fun.

The story has to do with the military performing crazy experiments on solders trying to create the "Ultimate Killing Machine". It starts out with a great solder being tortured and then being turned into a killer. The movie then goes on to a group of four outcasts that have been sent to the military to be reformed. They to are experimented on and accidentally let the first test subject out, who starts a wild killing spree.

That is basically the storyline. As I said before, it is nothing new. It reminds me of a horrible mix of Alien and Wes Cravens Brain Ripper. This really is not a very good movie as the acting is mediocre, the story is lame, and the gore isn't even all that great. Michael Madson pulls in another fabulous performance, that similar of his performance in BloodRayne. It is funny seeing an actor who was great in movies like Reservoir Dogs and other movies similar, fall into such a rut.

All around, this movie just doesn't cut it. But, if you have some time to kill, you might enjoy it. Just don't take it to seriously. 5/10

After being rejected from standard Army boot camp for being complete rejects (4-F), four young Americans join the secret project of Major Blevins (Michael Madsen) where they are to be transformed into the ultimate killing machines. But the laboratory still hasn't disposed of the previous test subject, who did not quite turn out as planned.

On the Internet Movie Database, this film comes in at 2.4 out of 10, which is just about the lowest you'll ever find a movie listed. The only things lower are "Gigli" and Bill Cosby's turd sandwich "Leonard 6". Sure, the film is bad, but not nearly that bad (these people should rent "Nine Lives"). Allow me to explain. The acting is not great and the dialogue is horrible (mostly just grunting and swearing over and over again). The plot may not be outstanding, but it's decent and is detailed enough to carry the film. But many good things are in here.

The film is comedy through and through. From the opening scenes that depict the candidates as morons (which reminded me of "Can't Hardly Wait") to their stereotypical interactions like "The Breakfast Club" (the criminal, the brain, the basket case... with the princess replaced by a crack addict). And the film relies on some horror clichés in such a way that I have to assume they were meant to be funny: the German scientist, for example.

But under the campiness was a decent film that had solid characters. Michael Madsen did not give his best performance, but he is always a joy to watch (even in such things as "Eye of the Beholder" or "Free Willy"). And the subplot about military recruitment being down and needing to make soldiers better was very timely and fit well. I suppose you could contrast this with "Return of the Livign Dead" in that way, with adrenaline-induced soldiers in this movie taking the place of the trioxin zombies.

Maybe it wasn't great... but did you really think "UKM: The Ultimate Killing Machine" would be? I was actually heavily entertained. And maybe you didn't get the nudity you wanted (which is surprisingly with how much sexual activity is going on). But you got gore: faces ripped off, heads torn from necks, and a man slashed to pieces with blood flying all over the killer. Some of it -- the needles -- was done with the lowest quality of special effects, but I'd rather watch some film maker trying to save money with special effects than use cheesy computer stuff. (We can't all be the masters of gore that Peter Jackson was and Stuart Gordon is.) When you're at the video store and you're deciding between this and "Navy Seals", I actually liked this one better. But seriously, you know what you're getting yourself into. At least I hope so... don't be one of those people who doesn't know anything and picks up movies at random. If you are, you deserve to see every crappy film you rent. If you like camp, like the original "Batman" movie, you'll like this one.

normally, plot holes and bad acting in a horror movie are easy to over-look, as long as the movie is cheesy, violent, and entertaining. the director of this film, David Mitchell, is absolutely clueless, not just about about how to make a decent film, but about everything. so these four rejects, two guys and two girlies, are accepted into the army, but are taken to a military research facility. the four kids don't think it's fishy that they're supposed to sleep in the same room together. one by one they're taken out of the room to be experimented on. so here's one of the worst plot holes: why would they take out one of the kids, experiment on him, then drop him off in the same room before they take another kid? there's a million rooms in that base where they could stash the experiment victim. literally no explanation is given for this. but that's not the worst of it. there's several blatantly sexual scenes in this movie, like when they have to all undress together, or when they go crazy and wanna screw... but there's no nudity. all they do is get down to their underwear and that's it. why? does this director think his film is too classy to show bare breasts? who knows. i have a laundry list of complaints about UKM but i try to keep my reviews short and sweet. please, don't ever see this movie.

well hmm don't quite know where to start with this one,, well Michael Madsen you were just terrible in this one,, i mean i was a big fan of your's what have you done,, he play a Lieutenant Colonel or something in this movie,, an Army think tank,, creating soldiers,, because there recruitment is down,, and the soldiers that they have just aren't that good anymore,, so they go ahead and recruit the bottom of the bottom, and boy do i mean they scrape the bottom of the barrel for these losers,, a runaway,, crack addict,, those are just two to name a few,, there are i think like 4 or 5 guys and two girls. they discover that what they are in is not an actual boot camp,, and must survive the ultimate killing machine that the army has created,, an experient that has horribly gone wrong. not bad if you wanna see a bunch of dumb kids get killed,, but that's it here.

"UKM: Ultimate Killing Machine" is a boring, and highly unthrilling movie. The plot: 5 reject teenagers are recruited by the government to test a new drug that makes supersoldiers, run by Major Blevins (Madsen). Unfortunately, one other test subject went insane and now is on the loose...

The whole movie was shot in a building to cut down costs. Apparently, Madsen is expensive. The cast, besides him, is awful. No line of dialogue is timed right, and everybody just yells. There's no motivation or personality for any of the characters. The best part of the movie is the beginning. But after that, it all goes downhill quickly. Madsen's there for a paycheck, but how much could it be? "UKM" is a mess that should be avoided. Unless you like cheap Canadian horror movies...?

I can't believe how bad this movie was.It was so lame I ended up fast forwarding over most of it.The acting was bad enough but the story was worse.I should have known it would be a POS knowing Michael Madsen was in it.A lot of the movies he's in suck.The male characters were weak and wimpy, and the female characters did nothing but humiliate men.It was a b-rated comedy trying to be a horror movie.It had a bad score and was probably one of the most boring movies i've seen in awhile. I was surprised to see Bill Parrot in this movie.I haven't seen him since the late 80's in the TV show Degrassi junior high playing the Shane Mckay character.He should have reprised the Shane character on Degrassi TNG instead of doing a movie as horrible as this, but unfortunately for Bill they found another actor to play Shane which is too bad because I prefer Bill in the role.

Seeing the reviews here, I expected a bad film but decided to watch it as Michael Madsen is in it, like him since Reservoir Dogs.

There is some violence but nothing gross, the usual language, not much plot(could have done better) as it has an OK setting; I don't really care for the characters but I like girl who plays Zoe the best. She's quite spunky and I like her attitude and is convincing as the heroine.

Madsen doesn't have a big role in it like I thought, since his name is right in the middle of the DVD cover.

It's not a bad film. Good rental but not a good buy. I'm glad I didn't buy it.

Still, I wasn't bored sitting through the whole film. Overall still feel it doesn't deserve a 3.2/10 rating, maybe just 5-6.

Four high-school losers—crack addict Zoe (Victoria Nestorowicz), wimp Buddy (Steve Arbuckle), rebel Waylon (Mac Fyfe) and runaway Carrie (Erin Mackinnon)—hope to turn their lives around by enlisting in the army, but wind up as guinea pigs in the Havoc project, a top-secret experiment designed to turn recruitment rejects into unstoppable super-soldiers. After receiving the treatment—delivered via a massive great needle rammed into the spine—they realise that something is seriously wrong and attempt to escape from the secure military base where they are being held; in doing so, they accidentally release an earlier test subject—war hero Sgt. Dodds—who has been turned into a bloodthirsty killer fuelled by rage and is out to even the score with those responsible for his miserable state.

UKM: Ultimate Killing Machine is a case of nice try, but no cigar. The basic plot has oodles of exploitative potential, but the film doesn't go anywhere near to living up to its awesome sounding title. First off, the character of failed test subject Dodds is a real let-down: my idea of an scientifically engineered 'ultimate killing machine' would preferably involve machine guns in the arms, laser eyes, and razor wire skin; clearly the budget couldn't stretch to that, but it would have been nice to have seen a little more effort to make this botched experiment more memorable than he was—barring a few facial scars, Dodds looks exactly like he did before the procedure.

Another plot element that seriously under-delivers is the unexpected side-effect of the treatment, a raging libido that gets stronger the more the patient gets agitated. With the characters getting progressively randier (and in the case of the girls, more attractive), one might reasonably expect at least one gratuitous sex scene, but every time a guy and gal show any sign of getting down to business, something occurs to cut the scene short. Dodds gets as far as stripping a sexy scientist down to her army regulation purple silk stockings, suspender belt and bra, but he accidentally breaks her neck before he can give her any serious attention. What a swizz!

Worse still is Michael Madsen's woeful performance as nasty Major Blevins, who oversees the Havoc project. Clearly going through the motions just to pay the bills, Madsen puts about as much effort into his acting as I have into ensuring that this reviw is free of speling mistaks. In the end, what narrowly prevents UKM: Ultimate Killing Machine from being a total waste of time is the occasional spot of decent splatter, which includes a cool decapitation, a squishy scene in which a soldier has his face torn off, and some poor soul being cut into a pile of bloody chunks. When all else fails, at least old-school gore can be relied upon to put some pep into proceedings.

Michael Madsen mumbles his way to another giro check in this horror, where a bunch of annoying teens are pursued through some sort of complex by an unstoppable killer marine. You've seen this film dozens of times over the decades so why bother with this one? No really, I'm asking you. You've got your contemporary annoying teens (drug addict, geek, err…moody one etc) that'll be laughably dated in about ten years, all sent to 'participate' in some experiment to create super soldiers. Blah blah failed experiment escapes. Blah blah running around. Shouting etc. Slight gore even. Cold-hearted scientists. More running around. Sigh.

Honestly, I'm struggling to remember anything out of the ordinary about this one.

A fairly bog standard super solider gone wrong movie somewhat redeemed by some pretty good performances considering what they had to work with. Marsden does a good job of making his Major Elevins somewhat three dimensional character turning what could be a very standard evil military leader into someone who while willing to do what needs to be done actually cares about those he is in charge of.

Mac Fyfe turns in a good performance as Waylon taking his character from low level scumbag to believable hero plus he gets the best line in the movie. Stephen Arbuckle's Buddy gives a fun turn going from gung ho nerd to scenery chewing rage monster. Victoria Nestorowicz turns is good as Zoe going from street rat to strong but broken heroin. Erin Mackinnon does the best she can with what she is given but Carrie is maybe the least fleshed out.

The production is low budget and shows at time with some odd editing which I put down to not being able to do reshoots and having to work with what they had and the lack of gore effects with lots of people looking sickened and horrified but never doing more than showing some blood pools.

Good performances raise this from dull to ok not a cult classic but harmless fun.
