a5c7b9f00b In a remote bar, a newcomer advises the customers to seal the place up, as hungry monsters will soon attack them. The customers must quickly organize a strategy to defend themselves from the deadly creatures. Patrons locked inside a bar are forced to fight monsters. This movie doesn't look that good if it is going out for a trial run. Looks like one of those things that get piled in the back shelves on Sundance. Well I guess if you are into this sort of Dusk Until Dawn Rip Off then by all means go waste your money and go see this film. Looks to me like a copy of the original starring George Clooney with probably a weak plot. And even worst script, not that I am an expert of script writing. Although I have been working on some stuff which I will work on tonight since I am writing this I am realizing I should work on my script writing. I have my first one upstairs in some journal somewhere and for sure I will be finishing it one of these years. Well have a good day. Blissfully unaware of Feast's background history (it was chosen from entries for reality TV series Project Greenlight, which then documented its making), I popped this one in the DVD player after my friend heartily recommended it. And, boy, am I glad I did, for Feast is a non-stop roller-coaster ride of thrills, chills, laughs and gore!<br/><br/>This tale of a group of people trapped in a bar by a family of ravenous monsters only had a budget of $1m, but looks like it cost much, much more. The cinematography is great, the creatures convincing, the gore plentiful and the acting above par for such a production. Director John Gulager does a great job wringing tension and laughs from the simple setup and should be commended for doing such a great job under what must have been very unusual and difficult circumstances.<br/><br/>A great opening sequence introduces us to the main characters, amusingly giving us information about their chances of survival. But viewers quickly learn not to believe a word of it when the supposed hero becomes the first victim, having his head bitten off by one of the toothy critters. From this point on, the film constantly bucks horror film conventions, turning well known genre clichés on their heads and constantly surprising the viewer. When a film is brave enough to kill off a defenceless kid in a gruesome manner, then you know you're in for something special.<br/><br/>For guys, the film offers up some delightful eye-candy, with nearly every female in the bar having a stupendous rack. The babe count is way higher than in your average hick watering hole, but I wasn't complaining with Jenny Wade and Krista Allen, in particular, catching this viewer's eye.<br/><br/>Feast also serves up a magnificently high gore quotient, with some truly memorable graphic splatter including an eye being bitten out, a leg severing, and a fantastic juicy head squish. This is definitely not one for the squeamish! And if all that wasn't enough then surely any film featuring Henry Rollins wearing pink sweatpants and Jason Mewes playing himself (before being killed by a monster) has got to be worth seeing. Winds up being rather fun. It's not great, but it's certainly not the worst monster movie that I've sat through -- that might be 2003's "Darkness Falls." The Unrated version of this horror flick is only a couple of seconds longer, in total about five seconds and features a bit more violence but basically, it's not worth mentioning. Nevertheless there's a detailed comparison between both versions with pictures availableover here.
