The Feeding

"The Feeding" was the worst werewolf movie, if not worst movie,that I have seen for quite some time. Absolute and total rubbish, a fly-infested dung heap of cinematic failure...I stayed up late last night to watch this on the SciFi Channel, as I am a huge werewolf/zombie movie fan and I do enjoy a good cheesy B movie(of which the SciFi Channel now obviously owns the patent for:). Having said that, there is only so much I am willing to put up with(exhibit 1-House of the Dead!) The plot was ridiculous(something skulking around on 2 legs is killing deer and other wildlife on a mountaintop;and now it's moving on to humans...so the forest rangers figure it's gotta be a cougar or wolf, since everyone knows they are bipedal predators, right?!) The acting and character development was horrendous(imagine if the director/producer rounded up some students and/or friends and offered them lunch to be in a movie. Most of the actors sounded, and looked,as if they were reading from cue cards. You want the werewolf to eviscerate them all to make it stop, it's so bad!) The dialogue seems to have been written by a monkey on a bender(I won't even go into this, just pick a line...any line) And lastly we have the "werewolf"(I put this in quotations b/c it is quite possibly the single worst werewolf I've ever seen on celluloid, and I've seen all of the "Howling" movies-lol. The head looks like a papier-mache project some middle-schoolers threw together, and the suit looks like a brown wetsuit with hair haphazardly glued to it. Not to mention every time you see the creature the director has applied this out of focus technique to cover-up how underdone, and ratty,the costume looks.) There was some gore involved, but like everything else in this movie it was a hack job at best. As I stated in the beginning of this review, I like a good B movie...trust me folks, this is an F movie and should be avoided like Paris Hilton. Save yourself now, and run screaming into the night if this movie ever turns up on your telly or some well-meaning friend/spouse brings this home for your enjoyment:)

first of all, i would like to give this a minus rating but they only allow me a 1 as the lowest.

werewolf costume is very bad. they had to hide it with a foggy camera work.

the acting is not so good. got even worse near the end when they are attacked by the wolf. did i say the wolf look terrible. the costume at your Halloween local store is probably way better.

you only see the wolf a few times in foggy lens. no transformation scenes at all.

i want my rental money refund. wait, i got it for free. OK, i want my hour and a half back.

uurrrgggggg. this video suck big time. i cant believe i didn't go with an American werewolf in Paris. that is way good. the only reason i went with this trash is because i have seen the werewolf in Paris already.

did i mention that this video is terrible and horrible. aaaaarrrrggggg.

This movie was almost unwatchable... the only thing that keeps you from banging your head against the remote is that you want to see the "were-crocodile" for the laugh itself.... It had the cliché "token black guy" (in the Pacific Northwest.. yea!!! We'll stay away from there then, lol...) with the farmer's daughter white girl. They can never act either, they just have to be "black", and half the time they can't even pull that off.... (See Get Rich or Die Trying' for an example, he couldn't even play himself convincingly).... of course all the typical stuff is here, but in bad taste.... Lakes, woods, naked chicks, pot, camping, full moons, about the only thing they missed was rain... Garbage.

The Feeding was an interesting werewolf movie using the same effects from the howling with a little more fog to hide the wolf suit and continuity problems. Teenage campers and a forest ranger couple meet the wolf in the woods and fight for their lives. Some funny scenes and some good suspense, but nothing truly scary. Its set up like a B horror movie and it fulfills that niche very well. Most of the camera work was pretty dark, but it did the job. The acting left a lot to be desired, but not as bad as some B movies. Special effects were very rudimentary, but not too poorly done that they detract from the film. It is what it was meant to B.

The story goes... Two wildlife experts are tracking a Ronin animal killing all the game on the mountainside. Just so happens seven pot smoking 20 something's are going on a hiking trip in the area, did they ever choose the wrong place. A big beast is stalking this mountain side and it's hungry. Not winning any Oscars here but it's enough to forward this plot. At least writer/director Paul Moore does some things right. With whatever little budget he had he used it on practical effects and a Werewolf costume. No CGI, it's already better than Cursed! Although we get some really annoying blurring to cover up whatever the problem was with the suit. There are a few decent kills and of plenty of looks at the Werewolf. The head design wasn't all that great, but it's a bit different than your normal Werewolf. The actresses used would be girls you'd know in real life, which I can appreciate for once, but cute enough to be in a movie, and they all show their breasts, again I can appreciate that. Of course the dialog is pretty bad, along with some mediocre acting but it makes it amusing in a fun bad way. So not a horrid piece of crap, still better than Cursed in many ways but not a stellar must see Werewolf film by any means. As a huge Werewolf fan I'd only recommend this film if you got a few bong hits or drinks in ya. If you wanna have some bad B movie fun then watch this puppy...
