I just rented this movie. It is seriously great. It is not found footage as some places advertise. This is a great Canadian alien flick with a great lead actor! Can't wait to see more of director Adam Masseys work
shareI hadn't heard of it until it surfaced on the net a few minutes ago. I do have a question though, how can it not be 100% found footage when the film summary states:
As host of his own hit TV series, 'MAN VS', Doug Woods is forced to fend for himself for five days in remote locations with no crew, food, or water, only the cameras he carries on his back to film his experiences.
No, it's a mix of regular movie and found footage. No shaky cams btw.
shareI'd been looking forward to this one for months but unfortunately it's not "found footage" or at least the kind that fans of that genre expect from that description.
It has a cable tv movie of the week feel and there's a realistic scene of a rabbit being slaughtered for food. I'm not against killing if you must to survive but this was a movie about a guy trying to survive on a television show. I hope to find out that there were no animals hurt during the filming of the movie. This one's a dud. :/
Maybe you have to check your film taste first ? 6.5 point is way too much for it, honestly 1 point is acceptable. Acting,casting,shooting,angles and most horrible part is scenario. Maybe they inspired from Predator(2010) but way cheapest production and way cheapest author and actor crew. Total point : 1 because there's no =0
shareNo ones talking about it because it's C/R/A/P lol
"Hasta la vista, baby."
I liked it, good solid acting from the lead.
shareIt wasn't bad, they had very limited resources to work with and the lead guy gave off the right impression. I was entertained very it's short runtime, the cgi alien was bad, but ok enough and the ending was kinda cool.
I liked how the alien skinned the humans to hang up in the tree just like the lead did with the rabbit It gave off a feeling like, hey I just crashed and I'm starvin too so an aliens gotta eat, he just happened to be one notch up above us on the food chain. Those are the rules to the game afterall.
This was pretty similar to my thoughts about the movie. Decent for what it is but nothing more. The lead actor did a good job as effectively the only actor for an hour's worth of the film runtime.
The CGI Alien was bad. I love a good independent film but I always think that if you're making a low budget Sci-Fi it's sometimes better to show as little as possible if you're not able to truly display on screen what you want. That took away a lot of the good work it had laid down previously for me which is a shame.
Other than that it was a surprisingly decent way to spend an hour and a half.
I really enjoyed it. The CGI could have been better, but besides that, it was great. I love apocalyptic movies.
shareI agree! Fantastic film.
