SnoReptilePlenty Memorable, crazy movie

Rio Hayward All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.

Kaydan Christian A terrific literary drama and character piece that shows how the process of creating art can be seen differently by those doing it and those looking at it from the outside.

Darin One of the film's great tricks is that, for a time, you think it will go down a rabbit hole of unrealistic glorification.

Leofwine_draca THIRST is an all-too-familiar low budget enterprise shot in the Utah desert. A group of kids are on their way to a tough boot camp, but instead they come across a meteorite site which has brought with it a CGI alien that appears to be a mixture of different creatures. Mucho low-rent action then takes place as the kids are bumped off one by one by the beast while they attempt to figure out a way to kill it. Aside from a small role for THE WALKING DEAD's Karl Makinen, who is reliably good, this is pretty poor, with unoriginal plotting and uninteresting special effects. Films like this only really work when they're bursting with suspense and you won't find much of that here.

crandalls-76404 Save your money, unless you can watch this movie for free. Even then, you may waste your time watching it. I'm ashamed to say I watched it all the way through. I wasted valuable personal time. It is one of the poorest motion pictures I've ever watched. I'd actually have to say it is the worst. Yes, it is that bad! The only reason I gave it a score of two (2 out of 10) is out of respect to the fact that this film was completed and distributed for viewing. That took effort. And it is that effort that I salute, but nothing more.No matter how hard I try, I cannot imagine a crew of adults producing and completing this piece of cinematography. It's awful, across-the-board, across all aspects of movie industry cinematography. The acting is especially poor. People do not act and react, in reality, as they did in this movie. Hello Director...The Alien - a five year old would have better imagination. The only "Alien" to ever look like that would have to come from the planet "Earth". The effects were on the level of an early 60's Godzilla film.I'm just upset by the fact that this film was completed. Because that meant it would have to be distributed, in an attempt to generate income for the sole purpose of paying for the cost of making this film. I cannot think of a single Drive-In that would show this film, as it is that bad.

dfcurran If there is a problem with script it is that the characters never acknowledge the makeup of the alien. So the viewers are left to figure out what ideas are combined here. My guess is terminator meets the thing. But you may pick others. What matters is that the story is action packed from beginning to end. Some of the characters could be better fleshed out, but the ones you'll end up caring about are fleshed out well enough that you'll have a good chance of anticipating their behavior. And the logical progression of the story moves easily forward. The camp for wayward teens is well developed. And for the most part all the characters act in a way that makes sense but for the lead male not fighting with all his resources earlier. I for one would watch a sequel to this. So for a bit of fun in a movie as entertaining as the tremors series (without being tongue in cheek) I recommend this

laced-angel I wish I could have given this movie more stars as there were some definite highlights, but too many clichés to rank it higher. Now I know that the film was low budget, but the things that took away from the movie were things that don't require money to improve on. A little more creativity would have saved this movie.The effects were good; some really great explosions mixed with some cool looking wounds & kill scenes. The biomech alien looked really cool, and I loved it's teeth! The acting was also good, with the exception of one character (the asshole was just terrible)& the script was decent, not too many lame one liners or anything like that. The action and pacing were also really well done.Overdone stereotypical personalities; beer-guzzling hick, geek, smart-ass jerk, come-into your own hero, even down to the token black character made this movie less interesting than it could have been. The Alien was (of course) feeding itself & it's baby, survived a bunch of things that should have killed it & then died by something a little less spectacular but also not anything new for this genre of movie. There was also, not once but twice, the extremely over used (and now eye-rolling bad) 'the car won't start' shtick.Overall it was pretty good and I had fun watching it. I wouldn't say to avoid it, especially if you're a fan of horror/sci-fi. It definitely has some really good moments. You have to just enjoy it for what it is and not expect it to be an awards contender.
