Low budget disaster! CGI smoke looked better in the 80's... ok, 90's!

I don't know how or why I ended up downloading and watching this excuse of a movie.
As if 'low budget indie' also means they could not find a competent CGI artist!
The actors almost all looked like they had been enrolled in the project after loosing a bet with the producer when he declared that he would gather the funds to realize the film.
(They thought that would never happen so they all agreed to participate if the budget would be funded. In fact none of them really wanted to be there but had to do it anyway when it turned out the money was indeed raised.)
That's how bad the acting is.

I had to trash the file at around 45mns and as far as my appreciation of this movie goes, I can only be grateful for the free space it left on my hard drive.

In Japan we don't speak of misogyny, but we admit to having female phobia.

How do you get the idea that this is german film?
There is not one actor from Germany and the director is also not german.
Production country is US and the production company is also US.
The only german mention is a german distributor.

So enlighten me with your wisdom!

Uwe Boll has clearly traumatized you in the past.

Uwe Boll doesn't discriminate. He traumatizes everyone equally.

Wow. You know you're not helping your credibility by creating posts that look like they belong on a geocities website from 1999.

I also noticed that in your review (not this post per-se) you insist on using the letter "u" as a personal pronoun. This makes you look like a complete illiterate.

LOL!!! Calling him out for using "u" instead of "you"? Wow. Just wow.

CGI smoke in the 80s? Doubtful. They would have been using practical effects for something of that nature. CGI didn't really take off until Cameron and Spielberg showed up in the early 90s.

I have seen worse BIG budget movies.

This movie delivered unlike them.
