That's right, i now do movie reviews! lets get right to it!
When it comes to films, I never really have strong feelings towards them be it for or against, I see them for what they are. Though recently, one film made me change my tune. with nothing to do late on a Saturday night, i turned to a film I'd never heard of, 2011 horror flick 'creature' hoping to be pleasantly surprised. what I got was beyond my comprehension. The film opens with some good old fashioned nudity as a young girl takes a quick dip in her local swamp.. (Yes that's right). Blissfully unaware of the surrounding Bacteria, this brave young lady gracefully frolics in the murky water... Until her legs are torn off by an alligator. The generic horror plot ensues when a group of teen... Ish people take a road trip to Louisiana and hear of the local legend of 'lockjaw', a half man, half alligator thing that is said to haunt the swamps. As if that didn't have the makings of a B movie already, the plot takes several ridicules turns, relying on various sex scenes and even turns to incest to build the suspense.... (I wish I was making that up). The antagonist, lockjaw, looks like something off power rangers, in fact he seems to be a rip off of the lockjaw character from the he man cartoon and is about as frightening as the cheap rubber suit that the actor who playes him so proudly dawns. As you would expect, most of the main cast tragicly die in a series of low budget fight scenes with incredibly cheesy effects. The fact that I'm spending time reviewing this film is a true testament to how god awful it was. The only thing about creature that will keep you up at night is wondering why the hell it was made in the first place.
Score: 1 out of 5
