REVIEW
I'll be honest, I had zero expectations of this made-for-TV movie. I just needed something to pop in on the background while I did a few other things. Given that, it did the job and met my expectations...
Apparently a kind of pseudo-sequel of Curse Of The Komodo, this has everything you can expect from the kind of movie it is... not much in the way of gore or sex (in fact, the version I watched just cut away during the death scenes) but plenty of talking. It's not earth-shattering but it's competent and managed to keep some interest from me for most of its running time, although I suspect that I'd have been bored had my attention been focussed on it 100%.
So... meh. Maybe it's not fair to judge a movie when I wasn't paying full attention, but lets face it this isn't high art and I doubt Wynorski himself pays much attention to the things he's churning out!
