Btexxamar I like Black Panther, but I didn't like this movie.

GazerRise Fantastic!

Supelice Dreadfully Boring

Aneesa Wardle The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.

TheLittleSongbird Was drawn into seeing 'Primal Rage' with a cool poster/cover, an intriguing premise and as someone with a general appreciation for horror. That it was low-budget, which from frequent personal experience is rarely a good sign due to that there are so many poor ones out there, made me though apprehensive. 'Primal Rage' is sadly however yet another film seen recently, hence some reiteration because the exact same strengths and flaws those films are present here, that to me was incredibly disappointing considering its potential which it doesn't do anywhere near enough with. As a film it's lacklustre, with a plethora of problems (huge ones too). Having said that it is one of the better bigfoot/sasquatch films out there, which generally have not fared well at all on film.Lets start with the positives. The scenery is atmospheric and spooky and 'Primal Rage' is surprisingly well shot.A few nice and creepy kills and the effects are surprisingly fairly reasonable.Unfortunately, the story does feel paper thin, disjointed and over-stretched and some of it feels vague and under-explained. Especially in the interminably drawn out and stupid last third where the film especially became duller, more predictable, more senseless and less scary. Too many characters are too sketchy and with nowhere near enough to make one want to endear to them. There is far too much of an emphasis on the Indian mysticism angle, which tonally gave off a weirdness and made things muddled and difficult to take seriously.Dialogue can be stilted and rambling, with lots of clichés and no depth whatsoever (definitely one of the worst assets), while the pace goes to a standstill very quickly and drags with very little going on worth caring about. Found too many the supposedly shocking moments not surprising or scary and the supposedly creepy atmosphere dreary, due to the excessive obviousness, a lot of dumb and vague moments and explanations and the complete lack of tension and suspense, cheapened by the dull pace and sometimes gratuitous gore effects. There are a good deal of underdeveloped plot elements and often nonsensical and confusing character motivations, while too many of the things to make you jump or shocked are far from creative or scary and are pretty tame. There is not enough threat here and what there is of it tends to be used poorly, it is completely unimaginative and more odd than creepy, with little sense of horror or urgency. Some badly sagging momentum too. The direction is leaden, inexperience seems to be all over the film. There is little creativity or anything shocking.Other than the dialogue, the acting was the worst asset apart from the hunter, a role attacked with gusto. The two leads, especially the male, are wooden and emotionless and have no chemistry together in sketchy roles and exposition-heavy development not worth investing in. The sound and editing are not great.The sound is intrusive and obvious, with some of it happening in random places. The editing is haphazard and affects the coherence of some of the goings on and story structure.Overall, lacklustre but far from unwatchable. 4/10 Bethany Cox

august-78865 There are too many people giving good grades, of good will to this movie. The movie at the start seems to be good, has a slow pace and a great atmosphere. the lack of music contributes to making the initial accident more dramatic.But nevertheless ... unfortunately ... it falls too much in bad performances, big, Big, BIG, moments of SJW: *it's fine that people who are not white are racists and misogynists, but the film makes it clear that white men should always be stupid, patriarchal and murdered by the monster / defender of the forest, *ok there we have something for environmentalists / anti hunting /antiguns to love the movie: misogynist hunters killed by an animal with mystical influence of the Native American tribes. (WOW all that in a single movie? ... yup swallow it ... Besides, Surprise! Bigfoot wants to have children because he is probably bored of just hunting and eating white "men that are creating chaos to forest" (quoted).The stupid thing about this movie is that the girl after her zoophilic experience can still run with a gun and chase the big foot instead of just running away.The entire transition with the scene behind the store with "Indian bosses" is unnecessary, there are almost 30 minutes of indigenist pro-inclusion propaganda film in a horror movie (besides the deputy acid trip) that are forced on the film, Im would rather prefer to watch a documentary ok? this is supposed to be a horror flick.The film tries to justify all this footage so that the sheriff and the husband meet and then re-enter the forest just for them selves armed with "magic weapons" (Yes ...). My opinion Bad writing plus a subtle agenda

alfredtimothy Was intrigued by the trailer and amazed by the movie was really atmospheric and enjoyable Loved the forest picturization and cinematography The characters were fun and the gruesome factor spot on Only the ending was too predator like I wish this was a series instead of a movie so could be longer it was so good did not want this to end

kaefab Saw this movie expecting the usual bad FX, awful acting, boring death scenes..... i got all the opposite.Its a brand new take on a known them the Sasquatch, but with some major turns..... intelligent use the jungle reminded me a lot of predator in a lot of ways but very well done not like yeah ok they did that.The death scene are very gory, so its a big plus.Not sure what the budget for this movie was but its pretty well made
