    I wonder how much help Robert Kurtzman had while making Wishmaster. I wonder if he even made any decisions while on set at all, and how many Adderalls he had to take to stay awake. It seems this man has a sleeping disorder because it's obvious he fell asleep on set while filming ...( read more)The Rage. Wishmaster was a pretty damn good horror flick, what the hell happened to this guy? It's alright when a director slacks off and makes some bad horror films, but my God, The Rage is unforgivingly atrocious. It's main problem was that it even fails at being cheesy. I like cheese too. But I like the kind that makes me chuckle from silliness, even if it is unintentional. Reason why The Rage was so unfunny, not only because of the childishly dry humor, but because the actors looked ASHAMED! I swear to Christ, watch their eye contact, listen to their lines, and follow their body chemistry. They're fu*king embarrassed to be acting in this pile of horsesh*t. At least if they loosened up more, woke the director up from a slumber, and told him the script really isn't as funny as he thinks it is, the movie might have had a chance. This director doesn't know what "funny" is. No one had ever told him. He's probably a guy who laughs before a joke is even told, and people stare at him like he's nuts. He's in a dimension of lost thoughts and confuzzlement. A real psychopath!

    The only decent thing this movie had going for it was the gore. But it was all CG in the worse way possible. Way too fake. Robert Kurtzman probably edited this movie too, only when he fell asleep his head kept hitting the keyboard. I really hope he'll be okay cause this man seems out of control. He's fu*king BONKERS.

    Robert Kurtzman should write a sorry note to all the actors, and apologize for not knowing what anything means. Even more, he should come clean, drop the crack pipe, and admit he had nothing to do with Wishmaster. Maybe then I'll respect him more.

    The Rage is beyond horrible. It's not even silly in a good way. And like I said before, I like cheese...just not when it smells like sh*t!

    Another Z-budget that I just couldn't sit through unless I was in the torture chair of A Clockwork Orange. When movies are this bad, you just lose hope.

    Directed by Robert Kurtzman, who directed Wishmaster and formerly of the FX group KNB and raved by almost every major horror website you'd think this would be a sure-fire, fun horror hit, right? WRONG.
    This is a huge misfire from the word go. Its a poorly written plot filled wi...( read more)th badly acted, unlikeable characters, amateur CG work, forced jokes and sloppy editing. It has some decent gore but even that's uneven because one shot will look great and then the next two are horribly cheesy. Unless you're a Misty Mundae fan there is no reason to torture yourself with this low budget rip on 28 Days Later.

    Now, here's one for your interest. Infected birds. Mutated humans. They both carry a virus known as 'rage' and the result: 'zombie'. Although it's slightly cheesy, but it's worth watching for the hilarity in the characters' actions and dialogue. Intriguing, worth twenty minutes s...( read more)eeing.

    Should have been called "Attack of the Killer Vultures" this is one stupid and foolish film. But I had fun. It's hard to keep from rolling your eyes at all the idiotic characters and their dumb decisions, but then a child gets eaten and it's all alright. It's gory and a modera...( read more)tely okay waste of time. I didn't know this was getting high praise from a lot of different sources, where that is unfounded, it's an okay movie at best and it would better to praise more intelligent and deserving films, I cannot blame the critics for having a good time with this rancid, but kinda tasty turkey... or vulture.

    This is a gore epic and it's all so impressive. Robert Kurtzman (the K from KNB) has set up his own production company Precinct 13, this is their first release and I can't wait for more providing they can keep up this kind of quality.
    Unfortunately, the CGI was a bit of a let dow...( read more)n. No doubt this will improve in future projects.
    If you just want to watch a film that's non stop gore that won't test your brain in any way then this would be a perfect choice.

    Junk food for starving Reanimator fans, but made with craft.

    You'll probably seek this out for the practical effects, which is the only thing that excels here.

    Cheap CGI is also used a lot, but usually kept to brief shots that could not be done otherwise at this budget.

    Reg has barely more than a cameo, and Divoff is the only other real actor.

    A rather fun over the top gory-horror film, the acting was very poor (apart from Divoff) as expected but the intensity and the fast pace really made this film pretty hilarious.

    Thats interesting...... Is this kinda like 28 days later?
  • June 22, 2008
    Loved the Gore and the Zombie Vultures lose in Northwestern USA, but the CGI sucked.

    Worth if for the plentiful splatters and the sodomy.
