1/4  Amateurish creature feature
Deliriously-directed creature feature with such obvious monikers as: Bartender, Beer Guy and Hero. An unscary film with unlikable characters, disgusting effects and a truly wretched performance from Judah Friedlander. Amateurish at best.... (read full)

4/4  Feast Quick Review
Amazing! If you are a fan of horror movies, you have to watch this.

2/5 A little over the top...
  by Chuck Mengel (Tyrone, Pa.)
Although the effects and acting werent half bad, this flick isnt all that great. The movie took itself to seriously for what it was... a horror comedy. I found myself laughing at it more that anything, and there was no build up to the action. It just seemed that these silly creatures came outa no where, humping and eating everything in there path.

Also... this movie just seemed to rip off "From Dusk Till Dawn", which took away from its originality. I suppose there is worse out there but if your looking for a laugh mixed with an occasional scare then this is your movie.

5/5 Feast... Project Redlight
  by Julian Kennedy (St Pete Florida)
Feast: 9 out of 10: Wow this is the way B-movie horror should be done. The fact it came out of that self important coming of age auteur factory Project Greenlight is even more of a miracle.

First of all the movie has an undeniable cool factor about it. Henry Rollins as a second rate Tony Robbins, a Jason Mewes joke, and a truly funny self referential anyone can and will die at anytime vibe all in the first ten minutes which sets the table for a cool fun ride.

The movie involves people inside a bar and monsters outside trying to get in. Nothing more. It turns into a surprisingly action packed film for what is basically a one set Rio Bravo remake. Like Shaun of the Dead (Another better than anyone could of hoped horror comedy) the characters make the difference.

There is plenty of cannon fodder (Introduced in an almost too long for its own good style of captions rating the various bar patrons survivability), and eye candy, and best of all a surprising amount of x-rated violence. (There isn't a body fluid not featured in the movie. Finally an unrated cut that is truly unrated and not just an "R" with some deleted exposition scenes.)

The movie wisely never explains what the monsters are or how they got there. It concentrates on the real time survival of the bar patrons. Did I mention that anyone can die at anytime? Even your best horror movie watching radar will be put to the test as you try to figure out who among the rabble are the prerequisite hero and heroine.

Plenty of fun and action and style cover any of the rough spots. Simply a great B movie.



5/5 Non-Stop Fun, Blood, Guts, & Humor...Required Viewing For Any Horror Afficianado!
  by ReviewMaster (ca)
Name: FEAST
Special Skills: Being the best monster movie you've seen since Creature Of the Black Lagoon...and the Creature wouldn't last a second against these guys
Occupation: Throwing as much blood, guts, slime and black humor as it possibly can at you
Quote: "I'm the one that's gonna save your...(Cue monster attack)"
Life Expectancy: A lot better than it's sequels, I can tell you that much
Grade: A

...Words cannot even begin to describe the mayhem that goes on this movie, the brain-child of the Project Greenlight series and a collaboration between Ben Affleck, Wes Craven, and more-It hasn't been since Roger Corman's Carnosaur since I've seen this level of sheer violence and gruesomeness in a movie, and in this case, it's a good thing! But take this review as a warning-Feast is for those select few who can take all the black comedy and blood this movie has to offer.

Even from the beginning Feast has everything going for it, including excellent acting (Krista Allen is actually good in this movie!), a creepy title sequence, and laugh-out-loud funny and creative character intros. Think the hero is going to save everybody? You're dead wrong. Think the old, drunken Grandma can pull off surviving this movie without having a massive heart attack? Well, now we're talking! Although the action starts rather quickly, you'll know every character, along with their life expectancy, ranging from "should be dead already", to "Who really knows?" Once again-I haven't seen a movie get this creative with characters in a looong while.

Now enough about characters-how's the acting? Pretty fantastic, for a movie like this! These people knew what they were getting into, and they take all the vile liquids that are thrown at them repeatedly almost as if they signed up for the movie just to see how it feels. And like I said before-for a movie like this, that's a good thing! If you were an actor working on this movie who didn't like to be covered in blood & slime, then you signed up for the wrong movie bub!

But how are the creatures that spray our band of bar patrons with all of these liquids? For a movie with a relatively small budget, they look, along with every other special effect in Feast, super! John Gulager, the director, uses no CGI, going for the practical effect and making these...hungry things as realistic and voracious as he can. Pair that up with the frenzied pace and angles of the camera filmed the mayhem, and Feast rolls along at a breakneck pace doing everything it can to be the best creature-feature of its day. Will I see this again? Well do these creatures like to eat?!

5/5 Won't Win an Oscar, but About as Fun as Horror Goes!
  by James P. Ryan (SLC, UT USA)
This movie is not for everybody, but if you are getting sick of new horror movies targeted at pre-teens or rip-offs of Japanese horror flicks this is the perfect choice. Feast is stylistic and fun, without bothering too much with storyline. Gory as all hell and actual well written humor. Gore hounds and non-sqeemish folks looking for 92 minutes of balls to the wall entertainment - rejoice!
