Carnivore

Even thinking about this film enough to write this review is causing a burning sensation in my brain, similar to the night I forced myself to sit through it. I feel compelled to add this much-deserved one-star rating to help offset some other reviewers, (most likely the unfortunate victims of head injuries),who have given this film two or more stars. Watching this film should be considered as a torture replacement to the now frowned-upon 'water boarding'.

I thought I had found the bottom of the movie-quality well with "Alien 3000", but "Carnivore" made me realize that the penny had much further down to fall. How do you portray an effective cat-and-mouse plot in a single family house!?!? There's only one hallway upstairs, yet the characters moved around each other like they were in some inter-dimensional Tardis. And those Federal "agents" who were supposed to be funny made me want to lay my face into a deli meat slicer and turn it on. I DO invite you to watch it, since misery loves company.....

Wow! This film is a complete stinker. Not just part of a stinker, but the whole darn deal! This thing doesn't even deserve to be called cheesy. Monster is viscious but lame. Bad acting all around and there isn't one character you like. You're actually glad to see them whacked by the creature. This thing looked cheaper then my uncles home movies of his vacation to the Ozarks. I've seen high school plays with bigger budgets. My recommendation is to not waste your time. I usually like extras on DVD's...but in this case I was very thankful there wasn't anything extra. Although a documentary about the director getting ran out of town would be nice. Oh well...that's it...pass by this one on the rental shelf.

This film has a great monster, atomospheric lighting, good camerawork, and an excellent music score. The sound quality was a bit muffled, but other than that this was one of the better "B" movies I've seen in awhile. And the DVD is packed with great extras like a 42-minute behind-the-scenes that's a textbook case study in the making of low budget indie movies. Definitely a must-have for B-movie enthusiasts!

What's there to say... Other than this is the absolute worst "horror" flick I've ever seen. Don't waste your time. The acting is terrible and the monster looks about as scary as a soggy puffball. At 80 minutes, I found myself fast forwarding to find something worth watching. I never found it.

where does one start? the horrible acting? the lame story? the rotten direction, lighting, editing? how about the incredibly awful sound? and it has that "made in the 80's" feel to it. Uggh! I read that this film was shot and edited over a ten year period........dear god, this is all they could come up with in 10 years? I can't remember another horror film as bad as this except maybe The Item. All I can say is that all the reviews that thought this had ANYTHING good to it must have been made by people who watched it while imbibing huge quantities of alcohol or had some really good weed for the experience. NOTHING redeeming about this movie. Even if you bought/rent it for free you're still robbed of the hour and a half of your life it took to sit through this waste. Sorry Mr. Kurtz, this is no reflection of you as a person, but if you're reading this my strong suggestion to you is to find another line of work. I want my ten bucks back!
