Hardly worth the time let alone the money.

If you're not on an unlimited movie plan, skip this one fast. Edward Furlong has fallen a long way from T2 and American History X to be doing movies like this. And even worse yet, he wasn't the main character and didn't have a significant amount of screen time.

The movie itself was relatively predictable with only a couple minor plot twists that were not entirely unforeseeable. A group of animal rights activists break into a laboratory to liberate the animals and display their message with graffiti. They unknowingly walked into a very dangerous and deadly experiment that they manage to let loose. With a "team" hot on their tails and their only goal to survive, the night lasts longer than this movie ever should have. The movie managed to make almost every single character completely expendable and in the end the only one left was the most obvious selection.

Don't waste your time and especially your money, the only redeeming quality of this movie is the creepy noises the creature makes a la The Grudge.

that's gotta be copyright infringement....

OK, not the worst movie ever made, but the production company better hope the makers of the F.E.A.R. video game never see it.

Through the movie, you see the word FEAR on walls, posters, etc. The "creature"'s name is Maya and it's about one cheesed of little girl who's been done wrong by a pharmceutical company... where have I seen that before, oh yeah, the game F.E.A.R. (First Encounter Assault Recon).

This movie rips that game off BIG-TIME... Except it replaces the squads of heavily armed (and generally innefectual) troopers with a bunch OK kids armed with dope and their sneakers.

If you like the game fear, you might get some enjoyment out of this version of the story, but as a stand alone movie, it's not great.

Oh well, for free on my satellite, with the option to turn it to another station, it's OK.

Not just bad, aggravatingly bad!

I like a good "B" horror pic now and then and I respect the film makers when they can do something witty, or innovative, or just scary in new way, especially on a budget. For instance the first "Jeepers Creepers".

"Worriers", er, "Warriors of Terra" accomplishes NONE of these things.

Editing is nonsensical, characters are murky/schizo when not totally unsympathetic. The sets and photography are attractive but the TIRED effect of cutting lights on and off constantly as though shorted out detracts from what could have been an above average "look" for a movie of this budget.

Midway through the thing I just wanted them ALL to die, and pretty darned quick!

The monster is all-powerful, then the female protagonist can kick its ass, then its all-powerful again...ALL WITH NO EXPLANATION! If you start to feel irritable or even angry while watching this movie, it is not your medication, it is the MOVIE!

Terrable

Warriors of Terra: 2 out of 10: Alien style movies have been done to death for a very long time. They can still work if A: The creature is decent. B: The gore is decent and C: If the underground fortress/submarine/spaceship the people are trapped on/in contains co-ed showers.

Grudge/Ringu style movies with pasty faced white skinned black haired ghosts that scream like insects has also been done to death. Personally I think that genre is close to spent.

Combining the two is a pretty bad idea. Warriors of Terra takes that already shaky foundation and goes nowhere with it. Needless to say there is no decent gore, no co-ed showers and a pasty ghost girl is not scary except in an OMG there is still another hour left to this movie kind of way.

First time director Robert Wilson has his finger stuck on the annoying effects button so we can never get a clear view of the action. (Guys don't zoom while you're moving the camera).

The plot is that of an animal's right group (Complete with rich daddy's girl, radical ELF terrorist who inexplicably sports a fur collar on her parka, and my favorite cliché hot computer geek who can hack into anything from her Mystery Machine Van headquarters.) attacking the big bad bio-lab. The corporate lab of course has a basement located somewhere around the earths core and is defended by a nerve gas doomsday device. (Are those available at Staples?). You can pretty much write the ending from here.

Michael J Fox look-alike and T2 has-been Edward Furlong looks and acts like a walking cautionary billboard about drug use.

All in all the acting and production values are decent (this is not a filmed with daddy's old camera job) but the Grudge ghost in an Alien flick concept plays even worse than it sounds

Awful and Boring Collection of Clichés Combined With Bad Acting

A group of animal rights activists – Jade (Andrea Lui), Tim (Dylan Taylor), Fix (Andrew Hachey) and the hacker Izzy (Kristin Pellerin) – invades the complex of Chapel Pritchard to liberate subjects, with the support of the daughter of Dr. Woods (Andrew Gillies), Ali (Ellen Furey), and her boyfriend and security guard Chris (Edward Furlong). Dr. Woods is in charge of an unsuccessful experiment for the cure of cancer in the facility, and when they use his access card., the security system is activated. They try to escape using an elevator to the underground laboratory, and when the guards trap them, Izzy opens all the doors of the compound trying to provide a escape route for the group. However, she actually liberates an assassin mutant in the same floor as her friends and the guards.

"Warriors of Terra" is an awful collection of clichés with a predictable story repeated in many B-movies with minor variations. The worst are the acting and the characters: Edward Furlong looks like a drugged junkie with a terrible face, in spite of performing a security guard; Jade is a real bitch with her attitudes and Andrea Lui does not have a good performance; Izzy makes grimaces trying to look like an intellectual hacker and Kristin Pellerin also does not have a good performance; Ali makes all of this confusion to call the attention of her father, but Ellen Furey's acting is not bad; Dr. Woods is absolutely unreasonable as a scientist, disclosing his secret experiment to a security guard; Fix smokes marijuana while being chased by the security guards in a ridiculous attitude; and Tim is also an unreasonable character. Do not waste your time watching this movie, you will have a sensation of Déjà vu (for the worse). My vote is three.

Title (Brazil): "Mutação Assassina" ("Assassin Mutation")

Avoid at all costs. This is a lame movie

This has got to be one of the worst horror movies I have ever seen. Avoid at all costs. The characters are one dimensional, the acting is horrible. They are no scares. You don't care when any of the characters get killed. Why and when did Fix even split up with his group? Ellen Furey (Ali) is one of the plainest looking actors I have ever seen. She is supposed to be the pretty girl, and she is so plain looking. I still can't believe Furlong would want his name above the title of this movie considering he was barely in it. Ali was a complete waste of time. This character shouldn't have even been in this movie with all her whining. The end credits music is just as cheesy as this movie. Too much record spinning on it. Do not waste your time renting or watching this movie. It is abhorrent, and most of the actors who are in this have probably killed their career by being in it.

Geez!!!!

Before i rent the movie,i checked the DVD case and i thought that this was going to be a nice movie. I WAS F@#@#NG WRONG!!! The story is good but the direction sucks. I thing its the worst movie i 've ever seen... The green like color of the movie was like the color of the Matrix movies and so claustrophobic.MY EYES HURT!!! The acting was so amateurish that i think that i could play in the movie too with my friends. And the ending??? What? The are going to prepare us for a sequel? Let me tell you what I think.I think they ran out of money To conclude, i tell you that.I lost one and a half hour of my life FOR EVER.

Bad

WARRIORS OF TERRA may sound like a high-flying fantasy movie, but it is actually an indescribably bad sci-fi flick about a bunch of youngsters who break into a biology lab to rescue animals, only to be confronted by a girl who has been turned into some kind of evil telekinetic. She proceeds to kill everybody she can. Problem is, the special effects are virtually nonexistent, and the creature is not particularly scary. She looks like something left over from THE GRUDGE. The youngsters are played by a bunch of bad actors including Edward Furlong of TERMINATOR 2 fame. Old Eddie hasn't exactly had the most sterling career since T2 (see him in THE VISITATION for another example of his shrill acting). You may safely skip this one. Clever titles and box cover art don't always tell the truth.

I don't know what the others saw-- This is GOOD.

This one has a DVD jacket image shot that says to you Vampire bloodsucking Hag queen out to get you-- Boorahhh!

I thought I was getting a grade C teen slasher monster flick-- it sure started off like a cheap production-- then it stopped being cheap.

The Sets and the atmosphere are tense and dark. The dialogue is simple and to the point-- and fits hand in glove with the growing desperation of the characters. There's no cheesy music score-- only very well placed sound effects that almost, ALMOST seem like a score--and not a pleasant one at that.

And the center of it all-- the girl. Just watch her move. She's not a girl. She's not a vampire. She's not some two-bit actor wannabe in corny slimy mutant make-up.

She's Worse.

She's utterly creepifying.

Get your nachos ready. Tell your girlfriend to shut-up. Turn off your cellphone. Turn down the lights.

Stop trying to be Siskel & Ebert. Just Watch it.

This is what a Late Friday Night Movie is supposed to be.

Only so many ways to show a monster

If you are looking for a creepy show on a Saturday night, then this one that could fit the bill if you catch it on cable. I would certainly be more inclined to believe that Big Pharma has something like this in the basement than some creature from space.

Trina Brink makes her debut performance ay Maya, the mutant. She doesn't have any lines, but she is a scary presence that will creep you out.

No great performances by anyone else, but I did like Ellen Furey and Andrea Lui.

The setting was perfect and the movie was at least more interesting than the NASCAR race on the other channel.

Horrible Horror!

This movie is just awful.

I can't believe I actually sat through the whole thing. Is it seriously supposed to be a horror movie or is it just somebody randomly shooting stock horror scenes and editing them together thinking if they can put together enough screen time that's all that matters.

I am angry to think somebody actually may have made money off of this piece of crap. It's not even a movie, I am insulted that they thought someone would actually watch this poor excuse for a horror movie and be scared.

Shame on the people responsible for this.

Warriors of Terri... well alright, complete f-ing awful

"Warriors of Terra" is kinda like "Return to the House on Haunted Hill" - they are best described as "imitation movies".

It's pretty much clichés, nothing but clichés, without any purpose besides being clichés. Almost like the writers' thought train was "well, that's what happens in movies like this".

The main problem? It takes over one hour before an actual characters start dying, and there's not many redshirts either. Of the main groups, only three characters are "actual characters" meaning there's few people to converse with besides redshirts.

Nothing happens without the monster's presence, and when she's on screen you can't see much. She's not on screen much, although you can't see much anyway. It's dimly lit.

So remember only view this movie if... actually I can't think of a suitable excuse.

Pathetic attempt to enter the horror genre

This movie was probably one of the greatest disappointments among second level horror movies. I'm an avid fan of silly, made-for-TV horror movies, in particular those that deal with sharks or other ferocious animals but this movie showed an extreme desire for imaginative thought without the ability to put it all together in a style worthy of more than "2 out of 10".

From the horrendous casting to the ridiculous overuse of special effects, this film consumed two hours of my life that I will never get back. This idea would've been much better off in the hands of a capable director and producer duo since the basic premise shows potential. Unfortunately, the damage has been done and now the idea is worthless for at least 20 years until due time for a possible remake.

Good movie.

For a 'B' rated movie in a $3.88 bin at Walmart, I found the movie quite entertaining even though it did have quite a few reference's to other movies.

On a Halloween night, this is definite movie to qualify to watch with other Horror movies. I am a fan and do watch a lot of Horror movies everything from Movies Box Office to 'B' rated movies.

When I bought it, along with a few other Horror movies which I bought 6 in total of horror movies along with 6 more movies that were non-horror. Warriors of Terra has it's moments that make you jump and a few that make you laugh. What is a horror movie without a few laughs?

In my book I am keeping this movie and save it for years to come on Halloween.

A genre specific 6 or a main-stream 4

This is a rip off of the first Resident Evil movie but made on about a 1000th of the budget.

Compared to a main-stream movie it is cheap, corny, predictable and a bit dull. But as mftv movies goes it is not that bad. The sets are well lit and work has gone into them (I still couldn't quite shake that shot in a studio feeling though), the acting is solid enough and the Nemesis character works well.

The great thing about low budget movies is the writers and directors get a chance to go a little out the box and sometimes what emerges is a unique, innovative movie. Here they have stuck rigidly to a prescribed format and with all the talent and will in the world they could never hope to compete with the big boys.

I don't know what you saw, but this movie sucks... really bad

Ralph17's must be high, because this movie is freak'n terrible. If I could, I would request the time I wasted watching this movie back. For that reason, I will be short as possible in writing this. There's no need to waste more of my life on this movie.

The writing is terrible. If I didn't know better, I would have thought that a 8th grader wrote it.

The plot is just as bad. The acting was bad as well. No one acted like they were in the situation.

The only good thing about this movie, is that the movie doesn't look like it was shot by a $300 camera. I guess they spent all their money on it, instead of a good writer, director, and actors.

good and bad

I would give this movie six out of ten stars. It is a good movie, so I thought. I am a big Edward Furlong fan, so unlike a lot of people, I believe he was excellent in this movie as well as many others. Each time I see this movie I get chills up my spine. It's friggin' creepy! In a good way. However the main plot and just the way it was constructed wasn't that good. I've seen it three times. I only watch it now for the scenes Eddie is in. lol I would not suggest just buyiung this movie. Because you'll probably get sick of it and give it to someone else or end up selling it. I would stick to renting it, then, if you liked it enough then buy it. Not a movie worth buying, to me, that's why I just rent it sometimes.
