Savage Planet (2007 TV Movie)
1/10
Horrid, truly horrid...

Warning: Spoilers
I think I'll go one step more than the reviewer that rated this a 2 and give this piece of rotten tripe a well-deserved "1", only because zero isn't available.

I can give Sci-Fi credit for making consistently terrible films. Everyone has heard of a B-movie, but is there something lower than a Z-grade? The acting is 120th rate, the CGI, well all I can say is my five year-old daughter on an Etch-A-Sketch could've done better (and made a better script as well). Where did they dig up the actors? I guess Casper VanDien and Lou Diamond Phillips weren't available whey they spent a weekend or so shooting this.

***WARNING*** THERE MAY BE A SPOILER IF YOU'RE STILL READING...

So, what's the premise? Watch the crappy trailer and you'll get the whole story. It's basically a generic predator versus prey plot line supposedly set in the future (amazingly, cheap canvas tents from the Army-Navy Surplus are the "in" thing) and the "futuristic" shotguns and PDA's. The sets are at best unimaginative, with some blinking lights and utilizing leftover pieces from a Packard Bell closeout sale. Anyway, people get butchered but, you're laughing so hard you hardly notice. The "aliens" attacking the lackluster, talentless cast are bears (Kodiak, Grizzly, who cares?) because I guess to save a buck, the new planet, 20,000 light years from earth, is almost its exact duplicate, except with less of a budget and more maiming and screaming.

Well, enough said... Skip this before (2) hours of your life are wasted in a fruitless endeavor.
