2.0 out of 5 stars
Predator ripoff, July 22, 2006
This review is from: DNA (DVD)
This movie doesn't start out too bad, a mad scientist creates some creature out of DNA yadda yadda yadda he starts killing everyone. But the second half - good grief! We're talking Predator ripoff right down to a scene-by-scene basis. There's also this "heartfelt" funeral for a character that we couldn't possibly care less about that's about enough to make you barf. Then more scenes stolen directly from Predator.
Poor Jurgen Prochnow. He's a really good actor. If I were him, I'd kill my agent with a very slow acting poison, just like he did to Jurgen's career.

The Best Worst Movie Ever, November 23, 2007
This review is from: DNA (DVD)
Seriously, this movie is so amazingly bad that it is incredibly great to watch. I give this 5 stars for the helicopter scene alone.
Not only does this movie blatantly rip off Jurassic Park, Alien, Indiana Jones and the Predator, but does so with bad acting, over the top action sequences, cliches galore and special effects that make you go "This was made in '97!!??"
Trust me, get some friends together, get a keg (or whatever else), and watch this movie. After you finish watching DNA you can use the keg ice to help your sore ab muscles heal from all the laughter inducing moments and Mystery Science Theater type comments unleashed during this awesome-fest.
Thank me later.

2.0 out of 5 stars
An Alien/Predator rip-off, July 20, 2006
This review is from: DNA (DVD)
But it's good cheesy fun.It's a low-budget "epic" filmed in the Philippines.Too bad MST3K didn't tackle this one.
The hero is a likeable,misunderstood guy;of course,he has to engage in an ancient shamanic ritual consisting of body paint (???) to fight the evil creature.
The heroine is the Usual Damsel in Distress.She gets to run around&be rescued a lot.
Then there's the Ubiquitous Annoying Boy.He whines so much you end up wishing the alien had him as an appetizer.
Jurgen Prochnow gets to overact as the Eeeevil Mad Scientist.He's mastered the cliche.Yay!
As for the alien,it looks like it came out of 'Alien.' HR Giger didn't waste his money suing the director.
If you want to have a Bad Movie Night,this is perfect!
