The Worst Film Ever

Excellent, Without a doubt!!

It is neither dumb nor smart enough to be fun, and spends way too much time with its boring human characters.

This is a fairly low-budget sci-fi movie with nothing original to show, and it's not trying to be funny (which could potentially make it more entertaining), so there's only so much you can expect. 7/10 would be the maximum a movie of this kind could get.With that in mind, it's actually not too bad in general. There's just one problem.If you take all the characteristics of badly written villains from the 80s and put them together, you get Captain Jekel. His lines are retarded and ridiculous, and so is his behaviour. That, combined with crappy acting, makes this character a disaster and would be bad even for a toilet cleaner, never mind somebody who's supposed to be a captain of a space ship. Every second of the movie that this character is on screen is extremely annoying. If a person like that was really a captain, his ship would never even take off.That said, the rest of the movie is pretty decent. Acting for the other ship's crew is fine. Jekyl's crew's acting is mediocre, but not terrible. The CGI isn't great (looks more like from a game than a movie), but low-budget is low-budget. I'm not one of the people who watch movies for special effects, so I don't mind this at all, but if you're one of those, you'll probably complain. The plot's not original or anything, but I've seen worse.It's not a great movie, but it's not terrible either. Just try to get distracted with something else whenever you see Captain Jekel.

After watching several horror movies in a row, I was looking forward to jumping into a good sci-fi flick. I slipped Image Entertainment's "Scavengers" into my Blu-ray player and settled in for some entertaining space dog fights and laser gun battles. An hour and a half later, I was left still wanting to witness these elements.While traveling the farthest corners of space in the starship Revelator, a group of scavengers discover an alien artifact with mysterious powers. A gang of rival mercenaries pursue the Revelator and its crew in an attempt to steal the object and use it as a weapon. After witnessing the deadly force of the artifact, the scavengers realize the importance of keeping it out of the wrong hands."Scavengers" isn't devoid of any action. There are a few moments of excitement spread throughout the movie. Not enough to save it from long stretches of boring dialogue and bad delivery from one actor in particular who should know better. Sean Patrick Flanery chews up the scenery here by playing a space pirate of sorts who strangely has a rural Louisiana Cajun accent. It's highly awkward, distracting, and, at times, just plain silly.I will give Director Travis Zariwny credit for taking the action outside of a starship or station and out into actual space. Many independent sci-fi films take place in one location. Most of them include a crew chasing and being chased through hallways and corridors by aliens, creatures, or robots. Zariwny gives us exterior shots of ships flying while fighting and blowing each other up. The CGI isn't spectacular by any means, but it's adequate for "Scavengers."Although it's not rated, "Scavengers" would earn an R in my opinion. It features sci-fi violence, gore, language, adult situations, and nudity. The scene of nudity was completely unnecessary and will no doubt keep certain viewers from watching it, which could make or break a small independent science fiction film like this."Scavengers" is trying to be a complex and heady sci-fi film, but its subject matter really doesn't support such attempts. It's much too talky for the majority of viewers who are going to pick this up. Audiences are expecting more than five or ten minutes of serious action when they see the cover of a DVD with spaceships shooting at each other and a guy staring out at the battle while holding a laser rifle.

One explosion scene in the film had me rewinding to watch it again. Super creepy and out of nowhere — a splatter surprise.The visuals were great and I loved Jamie Strange's and Louise Linton's acting. For some movie magic, the girls were pretty; the dudes looked good, too... just like how a real spaceship trip would be, I'm sure. ;)Heat up some popcorn and take to outer space to "scavenge" with the crew. I thought it was a nice departure for the director. What better place to go than outer space?Cheers!

Possibly one of the worst movies ever made, seriously, acting is ridiculously bad, manuscript feels like it being made up while filming, Sean Patrick Flanery has an extreeeeeemly annoying way of wrinkle his nose (like a rabbit) throughout the whole movie, possibly trying to look angry, but more looks, yeah like a rabbit. The CGI is made on somebody's iPad I think. Films like this should not be made. I rather watch Dinoshark... Don't waste your time here guys, I actually created an account here on IMDb just to tell you this. It is a waste of time. A whole heap of funding that could have gone for something good. Nothing else....
