Feast (2005) 8/10

Starring : Balthazar Getty, Henry Rollins, Navi Rawat, Judah Friedlander, Josh Zuckerman, Jason Mewes, Jenny Wade, Krista Allen, Clu Gulager
Director : John Gulager
Running Time : 87 mins

A bunch of locals at a remote desert bar find themselves under attack from flesh-eating monsters intent on destroying the bar and killing them all in order to get back one of their own that had become trapped inside the building. Their only hope is a stranger who arrives just in time to become their hero.

This is a pretty silly horror movie that starts off playfully enough, introducing the characters as stock examples from the horror genre, but then starts to turn things around. The monsters manage to be both silly and frightening, which is an achievement in itself, and though the script isn’t the best, the setups are well done and the twists are both surprising and at times shocking. Be warned though, there are some crazy misogynistic moments in this film that some more sensitive people might find offensive.
