«aI thought I’d mix things up a bit by watching another film out of the realm
of movies I’d usually watch, and just grabbed another release Asylum put out
last year. That was a serious mistake. This is, by far, one of the worst films
I’ve ever watched. The plot is ridden with plot holes, it’s shot terribly, has
amazingly bad effects, and looks like it was filmed on the grounds of a closed
down resort that is supposed to double as a military base. I was mind-numbingly
bored while I watched it which means it wasn’t even living up to the action end
of things. The idea is that Attila the Hun had a staff, or spear, or
something, so powerful that he had it split up so no one could harness its
power. They send in a military unit of three to retrieve a piece of it, get the
commander out, and then ferry the spear and the commander off to a facility to
study it. There’s a chunk of one of Attila’s people left there – or at least I’m
assuming that’s what that is and not Attila himself – so the film is terribly
misnamed. The person comes back as this unstoppable creature that they want the
military commander, who’s being driven slowly insane by the troops he’s lost
under his command, to go retrieve. There isn’t one solid acting performance in
this snoozefest, and they tried. Oh my god, how they over-acted, and tried. The
film feels like it was thrown together over a weekend, and none of the deaths
are ever that convincing so even as a horror flick, this movie is terrible.
We’re supposed to believe this military base has a basic chain-link fence
surrounding it, and the best they can muster up is a late model Jeep and four
guys to chase the creature down with? Can you tell the suspension of disbelief
goes out the window with this one? I can’t even say the music or audio was
decent with this because I don’t remember it. All I remember is thinking that it
was very generic. Either way, this completely misses the mark for just about
anyone who cares about decent cinema, and isn’t even worth a rental» (Ashe
Collins).
