Perhaps some of the most unlikeable characters ever.


Outside of the main lady, all the characters were *beep* The guitar playing comic relief guy was ok, but he was not around that much. The movie would have been so much better if you could actually root for these characters.

so true! and Mel's boyfriend! The jackass kept insisting that she only needed help, that he could 'reach' Mel, as if showing Mel her stuffed doggie was gonna bring her out of it? WTF? Was he not seeing her rip his friends apart and eat them? oofah!!!..I wanted reach thru the screen and punch him upside his head...
Cake or death?

reply

Yeah, and just when I thought he couldn't get any worse he gets all jealous that Dace is doing his insane, cannibalistic, murderous "girlfriend" like they do it on the Discovery Channel ... instead of trying to escape.

Ya they were pretty annoying. Chad was by far the worst though, he was a pissy, wimpy, grumpy *beep* and was also stupid as *beep* to boot. How did he get a hot girlfriend?

reply

Uhm...you have seen a horror film before, right? Unlikeable characters that you won't mind seeing killed are par for the course. From Halloween to...every slasher film ever.

Puzzled by your reaction here.

reply

Yeah, the behaviour of these people was beyond ridiculous. One of their friends turns into a raving sabre-toothed monster and they take it like it´s an everyday thing! But when they floor her and the comic relief goes "you´ve been a baaad girl!" I thought I couldn´t roll my eyes more with cringeness. I think that must´ve been the only time I´ve ever cheered when one of the actors got killed! Overall, a pretty ridiculous movie. When the CGI 60-foot leaps started kicking in, that pretty much drove it down the loo, as the aussies would say. LOL

Right from the beginning, they are attacked by a mutant rabbit with alien-predator teeth, and they just kind of shrug it off like that kind of stuff happens all the time. I mean that would be like running into a damned unicorn.

reply


Exactly! Just show it as a scarecrow to stop other mutant rabbits... And go skinny-dipping in the nearest pond without knowing what's inside the water. And when Mel's mouth starts bleeding and her teeth fall off, Dace decides to stay for his thesis and blames Chad for not stopping his girlfriend to go swimming. Just give her some paracetamol for the ride to the closest town... What a bunch of decent and sympathetic friends.

Okay - so it's one of the worst rip-off B-Movies ever, tho the British, Americans n' Japanese all make em' just as bad - i'm glad we finally did it on home soil - and what a top last line - They could've cut out all the excrutiating middle sect (xcept for the kangaroo scene - priceless) and just produced a short film based on the word...

C*&t ~!~

(lovin' that fair dinkum aussie context ;)

reply

To be fair speakin as an Aussie We kind of expect the wilderness to try and kill us.

Mutant Bunnies, that *beep* the least of your worry!

reply

That's what I was thinking. When the girl just jumped into the water I thought a fresh water crocodile had a fresh meal.

reply

lol

I liked Anja, Warren and Kris (although Kris got whiny once the *beep* hit the fan). The other 3 were somewhat insufferable ... especially Dace and Chad.

reply

The guitar playing comic relief guy was ok


He lost me with his whole rant at Dace for not being "alpha male" enough to cope with what was going on. Like he had a fúcking clue what to do.

I think Paranormal Activity takes the cake for most annoying characters.

I completely agree! I just saw this and I said to my boyfriend, "I hope that they all die!" I didn't like any of them. Even the main chick bothered me. This was a super crummy movie with plot holes big enough to drive a truck through. I mean, just HOW MUCH should we suspend belief anyway? And some of the scenes that were supposed to be scary, made me laugh out loud!

reply

I liked Kris and Anja. The rest, especially Mel, could feck right off!

"Hey! Ladies! That was fun!"
