1.0 out of 5 stars Robot Monster, but less fun, February 22, 2008

By

This review is from: AVH: Alien vs Hunter (DVD)

Alien versus Hunter arrived on the coattails of Aliens vs. Predator Requiem, and this is not a coincidence. The Asylum makes films to make money off of others, and many of them are terrible, with the exception of War of the Worlds, which I personally enjoyed.
Alien vs. Hunter, AVH, is a classic example of incompetent film making. The director did no work, came in 2 hours late, and spent his time on his ipod. No joke. The 'director' is possibly the worst one today. Probably worse than Uwe Boll. The editor obviously tried to save it, but it didn't work.

The acting was horrendous. You can't help but laugh at these guys who take the situation more seriously than anybody realistically would while doing stupid things right and left. The acting isn't great, either.

The creatures... I can make better ones. The alien is an arachnid thing m monster done through a poor costume and crud CGI. The costume only includes the top half of the creature, who, while a suited man, stands about five feet. The CG version, complete with spider legs, stands about 15 feet high. The creature doesn't even feel like a threat.

The hunter is even worse. Look at the cover. What you see is not what was used. This guy is a short five feet, wears a salad bowl on his head, and doesn't do anything but look retarded. He holds a gun that he picks up very slowly and doesn't do anything with it. He doesn't even fight the Alien. He just stands around watching in the final fight.

The lighting, directing, script... non existent. Your seven year old son can make a better film.

If Ed Wood was alive today, he'd look at this film and say it's the worst he's ever seen.

This is Robot Monster minus the fun factor. Avoid. Buy only if you want to spend an evening with a friend making fun of it MST3K style.

I'd recommend Dragon Wars instead of this if you must watch a terrible movie. At least Dragon Wars is so bad it's good. This is so bad it's unbearable.

1.0 out of 5 stars Alien vs Hunter = Guys in bad costumes!, December 30, 2007

Was this a comedy? I couldn't stop laughing at the bad acting, bad sets, bad lighting and bad dialogue. This is like the movie you see being made while watching a real movie, you know, the one so hokey you know it's not real. Don't ever be fooled by these "film makers" this is pure garbage in a bad way!

1.0 out of 5 stars An incredibly bad knock-off of Alien vs. Predator, April 22, 2008

This review is from: AVH: Alien vs Hunter (DVD)

The Greatest American Hero has fallen upon hard times indeed. Twenty-some years after hanging up his ridiculous-looking superhero tights, William Katt is no more than a bad actor surrounded by even worse actors in this egregiously awful rip-off of Alien vs. Predator. AVH: Alien vs. Hunter is just a stupid, stupid movie; it only took about five minutes for me to start talking back to the screen. I don't think it's possible for anyone to maintain silence while watching this movie - not without your brains bleeding out your ears, anyway. Such a concentrated amount of cinematic incompetence should come with a warning label.

OK, here's what we have. Two craft of some sort crash land near a remote mountain town, and - amazingly - no one seems to notice. I guess everyone is just too busy being bored with their worthless lives - that and the fact that there only seem to be seven or eight people living there to begin with. This place is so boring that the local sheriff all but begs the local reporter to tag along with him as he investigates a call about a domestic disturbance. That's when someone finally notices the huge space ships sticking out of the ground (you apparently can't see gigantic, smoke-belching alien spacecraft if they're behind a small trailer home). Before you can say, "Well, I'll be doggoned; look at that," an alien (who reminds me of a wild onion turned upside down) pops up and layeth the smacketh down on the sheriff while Lee (Katt) runs back to the truck. This is when things really begin to get frustrating. If aliens attack my little town, the first thing I'm doing is getting in my car and getting the hell out of Dodge. In the movie, though, no one even thinks of driving away; heck, they don't even drive to get from one location to another. Knowing full well that aliens could be anywhere outside, these knuckleheads walk everywhere they go, even as their numbers continue to dwindle. Here's the thing, though - the story would have us believe that there is no way to get down off the mountain in a car. It's the middle of summer, so it's not like the place is snowed in for the winter season. I can only assume the government had to chopper in all of the equipment to build the decent-sized town in the first place - and that government planes routinely air drop supplies to the local population.

While the characters are all walking to their deaths, we get a look at two other alien creatures - one of which is a giant CGI spider. The other one is all decked out in seemingly indestructible armor. Still, these idiot humans keep trying to shoot and even slug him. Moving along, the whole gang of survivors goes to great - and stupid - lengths in an attempt to escape but manage to keep getting in the way of all the aliens, blah blah blah. Throw in a stupid "twist" ending and you're done.

You can learn a lot from this movie. When attacked by aliens: throw the car keys away and just start walking all over the countryside with no escape plan whatsoever; insist that everyone stay together, then go ahead and keep splitting up anyway; if the alien attacks while you are indoors, immediately run outside and hide in plain sight of the alien; if you accidentally wander into one of the alien's spaceships and no one knows where you are, stay right there in the spaceship (since there's no chance of you possibly running into an alien in the alien's own spacecraft); and most importantly, should you actually survive the whole ordeal, immediately start joking around as if it's a normal day and the body parts of all your friends and neighbors aren't littered across the countryside.

So let's see: a stupid story with stupid characters doing stupid things, decidedly unimpressive special effects, exceedingly bad acting, excessive toboggan-wearing (it's summer, dude, take that ridiculous toboggan off already), an all but complete absence of character development, and a terrible ending. Yep, that pretty much sums up AVH: Alien vs. Hunter. You would have to pay me to suffer through this B-movie bomb a second time.
