An absolute waste of money

The biggest problem with this movie is it’s a little better than you think it might be, which somehow makes it worse. As in, it takes itself a bit too seriously, which makes most of the movie feel kind of dull.

The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one

Oh, my God. While I am a fan of all films, good and bad, one scrapes the bottom of the barrel. If a pair of stoned film students with a fluffy cat made a "Benji Saves The Universe," it would be of Oscar quality as compared to this. Acting-bad. Special effects-bad. Storyline-convoluted. And bad. The storyline is actually the best part (here is where a semi-spoiler is) that it jumps back and forth, making you think that perhaps it's an art film, or has flashbacks, or has elements of An Occurrence At Owl Creek Bride. But that was just optimism on my part--hoping against hope that there would be something--ANYTHING--redeeming about this. But there is not. My apologies to the fine people who clearly put in some effort and spent at least three days writing, casting, filming, and editing this horrendous piece of crap. If I could list a score of less than 1, I would. If you find yourself somehow forced to watch this, you may consider by drinking drain cleaner a better and more enjoyable alternative.

why is there no option for zero put of 10? i suppose the only reason could be the DVD could actually be used as a coaster and provide some reason for being. This film is easily the worst thing i have ever, ever seen.........except maybe for Anaconda 3 which made me want to chew my own face off.....there is no start, no middle, no end, no point, nothing good, nothing worth discussing.all i want to know is who i write to in order to get the hour and a half or so of my life back that i wasted in the vain hope that something remotely watchable was going to happen.... which, incidentally, it didn't.

A convict escapes from a prison convoy, killing a hunter in the process, only to be relentlessly pursued across the arid landscape by a cyborg canine, hell bent on avenging the death of its handler. Unusual sci-fi horror follows the plight of William Miller mistakenly incarcerated after being caught in an illegal immigrant sting with his girlfriend – the pair apparently part of an elaborate game of risk where participants perform daring adventures to compete with other players. But when his girlfriend is apparently raped by the evil detention centre boss (a typical sadomasochist portrait of villainy by Spanish horror veteran Paul Naschy), Miller finds himself in a nightmarish situation, haunted by fractured hallucinations, and the real game begins.Throughout the ordeal our hero endures countless narrow escapes from the steel jaws and tenacious predation of robot-dog, even running afoul a lonely farmhouse wife who sees an opportunity to satisfy her pent up sexual urges when he emerges from the wilderness, naked and despairing. As the connubial cougar becomes more incoherent, his parrying gives way to plundering, tucking in wholeheartedly, akin to a doomed man's 'last supper'. If it hadn't already proved its R rating (decapitation and dismembering befall one poor escaped convict), then the MILF seduction scene surely qualifies.Barren wilderness and semi-industrial wastelands paint an acrid post-apocalyptic anachronism of hopelessness and despair. Even the finale, where the hero comes full circle to avenge his injustices, does the film offer little respite from the hedonic procession of brutality and cruelty in which director Yuzna seems to engage with a sort of carnal cinematic relish. The point-of-view visual effects borrow heavily from the originality displayed in the far superior "Wolfen", but with much less technical agility.It's primitive and an at times unattractive, but it must be said, memorable even if only for the disorganised miscellany of ideas and sensational showcasing of animatronic special effects.

Typically awful Yuzna exercise, this time mining the "monster dog" genre having this human-eating, bloodthirsty mutt chasing convict Dante(William Miller)through this totalitarian country. He is bitten twice by it, but somehow, despite how others are torn to shreds, escapes his clutches. This film embarrassingly finds numerous ways, when there shouldn't be none, for Dante to constantly evade dire harm. It's essentially a series of near-death scenarios as he is caught by one prison guard with cowboy boots(?!)who was in possession of the rottweiler, is pretty much raped by some former-whore named Alyah(Paulina Gálvez), who becomes lunch,with a daughter , runs into three drug-runners who are interested in the boots he stole from the prison guard he blows away, and finally makes it to this metallic city(which resembles Pittsburgh or Chicago) where prostitution runs supreme with constant trafficking of drugs and narcotics. Dante's memory has been dodgy since beaten to a pulp by the sickening leader, Kufard(Paul Naschy out of all people..inspired casting, I'm sure) of this country's prison unit, or whatever it is, and he pursues the love he was separated from when circumstances brought them apart. There's this game called Infiltration where certain products of wealth(Dante and Ula) see if they can escape dangerous, patrolled waters..whatever. Dante spends most of his quest searching for Ula(Irene Montalà)when he isn't barely surviving the killer dog out for blood.There are certain repressed memories Dante is trying to retrieve and it concerns what happened that night he and Ula were caught by Kufard. This also concerns the reason the rottweiler is beyond mortal..it had some sort of scrape with Dante resulting in it's skeletal structure(..and teeth) being changed partially into metal which means it can rip people apart for the hell of it without anyone doing much to him. He's pretty much a robotic killing machine. This film contains some graphic neck attacks among other flesh ripping from the killer mutt. Yuzna shows it pulling away vital organs from the torsos of victims, chomping on the skin around the skeletal remains of human meat, etc.
