Guillelmina The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.

videorama-759-859391 Here we tiredly go again. 5 20+ too good looking lot (the lead male, currently in Home And Away, big surprise?) go off in the beautiful outdoorsy, mountains for a weekend of fun, and adventure, little do they know scenario. Cliché'd characters and predicabilitie's follow in this hugely disappointing horror indie, and it's a bloody shame, excuse the double meaning pun, as you'll find out, as gore hounds will be sold short on this one. The loud hottie, becomes rapid and possessed, after venturing in this cave, that saw this ritualistic murder, many years, prior. She grows fangs, springs out and attacks, bringing some familiar shades of that horrid and ghastly shocker, Howling 3, 30 years, prior, in this poor explained story, must less gorier than you expect. This messy horror is unforgettably stupid, with poorly drawn characters, where except the female lead and the class clown, you really couldn't give two hoots about the rest, in a horror you'll be glad to see the back off. Just another reason, most Oz horrors suck. Pathetic. Bet you this director, is a real fan of Howling 3, I'd bet my top bottom dollar. Stop at the misleading cover, with this one.

PeterRoeder36 Don't get me wrong. I love bad movies. I love The Room. However, this movie really sucks. Bad acting, dialog, etc. There was some hope in the movie until the first infection. After that it is just a pointless repetition of fights and bad horror scenes. I thought the weird big leeches in the cave were cool but still this is an absolutely trashy b-movie. I don't mind charming b-movies like Killer Clowns from Outer Space or Troll 2 but these movies have charm and fun. Primal is just plain stupid basically. I mean seriously would they just wander around there without food and water and just fight for no reason. A real insult to the intelligence of the viewer. If the director wanted to make a cool splatter movie he could have just done that but the beginning of the movie is more like Friday the 13th. However, then it turns into a weird splatter-movie. Really stupid crap.

shinobi272 I just saw this movie on syfy... even with the parts edited for content this is still arguably the worst movie ever. It goes from archaeological expedition flick to zombie movie to Japanese tentacle rape... seriously pick a genre and go with it will you? Is this how Aussies deal with threats now that their government has taken away their guns? big f*cking rocks and torches? I guess the socialists won huh? You've reduced yourselves to cavemen with cars and cable TV... good job. This movie would have been over in about 30 seconds if it took place in America. Oh look shes crazy and she bit me *bang* problem solved. But instead I had to put up with 2 hours of screaming over the simplest things and inaction when action is the only logical response to the stimuli... Girl running with machete and gets caught by 2 "zombies" don't get off your ass and help just sit there and tell her to run... uh yeah that's gonna solve the problem. I guess the commie government took your testicles too.

GL84 While touring the Australian outback, a group of friends studying Aborigine cave art finds a site protected by a voracious predator that regresses those it comes into contact with into a primal state, forcing them to come together to kill their friends before it gets to them.There's really not a whole lot against it as this was an absolutely fantastic film here. What really gives this one a lot to enjoy comes from the absolutely amazing set-up to their camping trip in that location which gives this a really creepy feeling. With them being out in the remote part of the forest and being surrounded by the area around them from the pool to the claustrophobic cave, filled with it's cramped spaces and darkened surroundings to their overrun campsite, this all makes for a really creepy situation here to launch into the frenetic and vicious attack scenes that are so frequent here. Relying a lot more on the set-up of their being reduced to an altered and deformed state along the way to match it physically as the short pace never lets up providing this one with plenty of great scenes. From the opening attack on the wall-painter to their slowly-building realization of what's happening to her as she comes under the possession at the campsite, there's a great base of action in place before really turning it up with the later scenes throughout here. The first freak-out with the possessed friend where they get to see firsthand how much more powerful and vicious they've become with the enhanced agility and hunting prowess, the invulnerability and the physical deformities that come along here makes for a wholly impressive attack, the ambush in the jungle where they attempt to trap it turns into several intense, high- energy chase around the woods attempting to get away from the brutal creature as they're completely overwhelmed into barely getting away through a freak occurrence and the later scenes where they get chased through the underbrush, along the river and tunnels are all really exciting and thrilling action scenes makes for some good times. It's also pretty brutal and gets in some amazing gore gags that look really nasty and vicious, helping to sell it even more. There's even some decent comedic attempts that showcase an actual group of friends ragging on each other without going overboard and a great sense of suspense in the stalking in the jungle that all make this a highly enjoyable entry. There's really only one main flaw in here which is the finale in the cave as the film's biggest surprise waiting in the bowels of the location that doesn't match the tone and feel found elsewhere as it comes off way too fantastical against the more realistic and natural tone that runs through the rest of the film, and along with the ridiculously over-the-top CGI that looks unbelievably fake, that's all that's really wrong here as the positives really overwhelm this one.Rated R: Graphic Violence, Graphic Language, Brief Nudity and an attempted rape.
