Truly Dreadful Film
Memorable, crazy movie
One of the worst ways to make a cult movie is to set out to make a cult movie.
The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.
I usually like SCIFI movies & I like Dolph Lundgren movies like this & to me even at the end of the movie Dolph Lundgren character Harker was the good guy. Travis kept saying Harker just wanted all the glory but this creature was killing humans & he was hired to kill it to stop it from killing humans. The creature was extremely destructive & was taking human lives so it is obviously life threatening. Travis the idiot who must think humans dying as a result from this creature is worth those human deaths & wants to capture it alive no matter how many people get hurt. To me it's obvious Travis wanted all the glory without a doubt. Travis was the glory hound in this movie & not Dolph Lundgren character.
Really cheesy, bad CGI-supported, good guy/bad guy flick. Basically SyFy channel type schlock. Don't waste your time or electricity on this silly thing. The creature doesn't even eat meat, she' just defending her nest from evil capitalists who want to develop her habitat. What a wimpy excuse for a creature flick! The fast swipe creature scenes keep the actual appearance of the CGI monster from being completely laughable until late in the film, but it still looks like an over-grown gecko. Lundgren portrays the cut-out drunken egoist who just wants to shoot everything that moves for booze money. BTW: The years have been none too kind to old Dolph Lundgren, who has become a scrawny shadow of his former self. Combine this with his lack of acting ability and the amateur level of the rest of the cast, and you have one big no-fly zone!
(Credit IMDb) Travis and his team travel to China in search of what isn't supposed to exist ... their mission to capture a Cryptid which is wreaking havoc in a remote village and they need to do this before it is killed by Harker, the legendary bounty hunter.Dolph Lundgren is one of my favorite action stars from the 80's, and Scott Adkins has set the standard for burgeoning stars as far as action stars go. How could you possibly go wrong with those two? It turns out a lot. Those expecting a movie filled with action will be highly disappointed. In lieu of action, we get an excruciatingly boring adventure film that features very little to no excitement. It has some really lame CGI with animals and it doesn't take advantage of the martial art skills that both Lundgren and Adkins have. It's way too talky and sleep inducing to make much of an impact. The only good thing about this movie is the cinematography. 2/10
I have to admit this movie did came as a surprised to me. Every time when there's a movie that involves either Scott or Doulph (doesn't matter separately or together) straight away most if not all of us start thinking that this was going to be a straight up action fight kind of movie involving the these two since it felt like it was the only type of genre Scott and Doulph are always involved in. Boy did they prove me wrong in this movieAlthough a B film, this movie is really great. I liked seeing actions actors get involved in something different for a change. It just shows how talented they can be. Scott Adkins really impressed me with his performance. I was really impressed to see him play a genius scientist role for a change compared to his usual tough brute strength character. Doulph Lundgren also played his normal usual style self which fitted really well for his hunting role in this film. The rest of cast did a good job and the plot was very simple and straight forwardThe creature effects as usual were a bit of a let down but what did expect from a low budget film. My final thoughts. If you watch this with an open mind and cast away all the usual expectations, then this is a worth watching B film
