Review of Feast (2005) by Ryan R — 27 Jan 2009
Feast is a smorgasboard of cliches. Take your pick. Everythingis on the menu. The filmmakers spared no expense. You got the runned down honkytonk bar. The heavy rain which leads to bad lighting. A collection of characters who normally populate horror movies like these.
The black man is one of the first people to go. A man, suspected to be the hero, dies a grissly death earlier on. There are not one, but two, bad ass women. The creatures looks like something left over from The Village.
There's a lot of scenes in which things jump out which turn out to be nothing. This movie has too much of the pretentiousness that Scream used sparingly with all its "wink-wink, nudge-nudge" self parody.
I dont really think we need 20 minutes of introducing the main characters and their expentacies in this movie. Jason Mewes is only around to run around swearing when his face is ripped off. This move is amatuerish, which I guess it was it's SUPPOSED to be since this is one of those Project Greenlight movies.
Surely, there are better scripts out there than all the crap they have been making. It's best to skip this main course, but if you do, don't ask for seconds.
