DVD Reviews of Feast (Unrated) [HD DVD]

DVD Review: It Coulda Been a Winnah
Summary: 2 Stars

For the first l5 minutes, I thought I was onto something cool and different. Each of the mob of characters are introduced with a cutting edge freeze-frame bio. But after awhile I couldn't keep track of who was who. And then the action started. A stranger crashes his way into a tavern to warn the people that some monsters are on their way. They come crashing against the walls and windows.

The gallery of characters begin to defend themselves, with much gore and blood splashing the walls. Some are decapitated or have limbs torn off. And this is where the confusion really starts. You can't tell what's really happening because of the insanely flash edits that whip around the rooms and the people. Who was killed, who was mutilated who survived?

After half an hour of this madness I finally had to hang up. My head was throbbing and I still yearned to see one of the monsters in action because from what I saw, it was only a bunch of hand puppets, lunging and flying around.

This flick had the germ of something that could have been outstanding. All it left me was a sense of dizziness and eye strain and throbbing head. And to think that there are three more sequels on their way! God forbid!

DVD Review: Feast (Unrated Edition)
Summary: 5 Stars

i loved it... it you like horror movies this is worth adding to the collection

DVD Review: more than decent horror flick...
Summary: 4 Stars

The DVD cover for "Feast" always intrigued me when I'd see it in the local Blockbuster. I picked it up at Walmart on a whim last week for $5. I gotta say, hell of a deal. This is a very fun(ny) and very gory horror movie, with a surprising number of known (more or less) actors...including McSteamy from Grey's Anatomy, Henry Rollins, one of the girls from The O.C., Jay from "Jay and Silent Bob" and "Clerks"...some others as well. The plot is very straight forward...a group of people must band together in a bar to fend off monsters who are hell bent on eating them. The mayhem that ensues is sometimes scary, often times funny, and pretty much as gory as it gets. 4/5.

DVD Review: Gore but boring as hell.
Summary: 1 Stars

Ok, I am a huge fan of gore films and I love horror movies. The Exorcist? Loved it. Hellraiser? Can't get enough of it. But, I watched this movie back when it first came out on dvd thinking it was going to be awesome. It definitely delivered on gore and shocking scenes. On the other hand it really didn't make much sense. To me many of the scenes were pointless. And, I just kept asking myself "Really?" If you want a ton of gore and blood with a boring story line and don't really care about a plot. Then this movie is definitely for you. I now hear there is a second one and will be third. I'll be sure to walk right by them in the video store.

DVD Review: Hungry? Why wait?
Summary: 4 Stars

I think we're at a point now where expecting something new or original from a horror movie is just kind of foolish. Sure, there are some original ideas out there but they usually end up falling victim to cliched situations or character development and ultimately become a self parody.

When it comes to Feast, the movie itself is rather entertaining. Again, originality isn't something this film oozes with, but it does offer lots of bloodshed, horny monsters and Henry Rollins in pink sweat pants. A twisting combination of horror and comedy, the movie runs at a pretty smooth pace even though the entire movie takes place at one location.

If you don't take this movie too seriously and take it at face value, it's actually a pretty fun and enjoyable watch.

Description of Feast (Unrated) [HD DVD]

Dimension Feast - HD-DVD From executive producers Wes Craven, Ben Affleck, Matt Damon and Chris Moore comesthe "incredible horror extravaganza" "Feast" (Harry Knowles, Ain't It Cool News), whose production was chronicled on the third season of Bravo's hit reality series "Project Greenlight." When a motleycrew of strangers find themselves trapped in an isolated tavern, they must band together in a battle for survival against a family of flesh-hungry creatures. Terrifying and full of surprises, "Feast"turns the screen blood red as the group is devoured one-by-one.

In need of some good old-fashioned gore? You'll find it by the bucketload in the low-budget monsterfest Feast, which arrives on DVD in an even bloodier unrated edition. The winning entry in the third season of Ben Affleck and Matt Damon's reality series/talent contest Project Greenlight (Wes Craven is also on board as an advisor/producer), Feast is a wall-to-wall splatterthon that operates on an agreeably simple premise: A crew of motley characters is trapped in a remote location (in this case, a desert bar) by ravenous, flesh-eating monsters (here, a quartet of toothy and astoundingly fecund humanoids). The result? Lots of gruesome deaths and plenty of manic action, delivered with kinetic style by first-time feature director John Gulager. Not everything about Feast works--Gulager's drive is thwarted by the unfocused script, which favors smarmy dialogue over substance--but the effects are impressive, given the film's price tag, and the cast is incredibly game for the gory goings-on, with Krista Allen (Entourage), Judah Friedlander (30 Rock), Balthazar Getty (Alias), and Gulager's father, veteran actor Clu Gulager, among the stand-outs. The DVD includes a smattering of outtakes and deleted scenes (including an alternate ending); commentary by Gulager, the screenwriters, and two of the film's numerous producers; and a making-of featurette, which Project Greenlight viewers should find interesting solely for producers Chris Moore and Michael Leahy's attitudes towards Gulager (both were a hair's breath away from firing him throughout the production, but here, amusingly suggest unconditional support). -- Paul Gaita
