The Rage (2007) is a movie that I recently watched on Prime. The storyline follows a scientist (Andrew Divoff, aka The Wishmaster) who has captured some test subjects in the woods for a new serum for super soldiers, one that makes people go insane and eat and destroy everything. When a subject escapes, dies and is eaten by some vultures...no one in the woods are safe.

This movie is directed by Robert Kurtzman (The Wishmaster) and stars Andrew Divoff (Wishmaster), Erin Brown (The Lord of the G-Strings), Sean Serino (Glory Road), Christopher Allen Nelson (Halloween, 2018) and Louie Kurtzman (Black Friday).

It's too bad the CGI was hit or miss and the vultures in this were so bad...because there's a lot to like about this movie. The storyline is a bit of a ripoff of 28 Days Later and the dialogue and acting are pretty bad. However, the horror elements outside of the use of CGI are entertaining. The gore and eating scenes are awesome. The effects to create the infected skin and wounds were top notch. The blood looks authentic and like actual blood. The blood splatter is excellent. Almost all of the scenes in the woods laboratory are great. Andrew Divoff delivers a solid performance too.

Overall, this isn't a good movie, but there's enough worthwhile scenes to get a horror enthusiasts attention. I would score this a 4/10 and only recommend it to horror diehard fans.
