The descriptive blurb they use, “A group of five college kids are forced to match wits with unwelcoming residents when they fly to a ‘deserted’ island for a party weekend” is accurate, but doesn’t quite give away what the movie is actually about.
Ok, this is TV-movie quality, but it’s 1970s TV-movie quality, back when they occasionally made TV movies that could stick with you, and while nothing spectacular, it’s also nothing I’ve quite seen before, outside of those ’70s “nature has it in for man” sci-fi/horror flicks (Bug, Food Of The Gods, etc.)
To say more would spoil it. I thought it was fun. It’s not a cheezy monster movie, but somehow it might do if you’re in a cheesy monster movie mood.
Apparently it scored a 15% on rotten tomatoes, which, ok, I mean, yeah, I get it, it’s not by any means scary, and not even really very good by most movie standards. But come on, where’s people’s sense of fun?
