Title: The Dark Lurking
Post by: Andrew on August 07, 2012, 07:09:25 AM
In a number of ways, this is the movie that "DOOM" should have been, but it uses so many ideas from other films that there is precious little new material to make it interesting.  Plus, the characters are idiots.  All of them.

You're back in business! :thumbup:

Classic Borntreger. Funny, insightful and saving me from having to endure this alone.
Keep it up, dude.  :smile:

Didn't enjoy this movie as much as I probably should have. It was too "wet" for my liking. Excessive slime/fluids dripping grosses me out. Great review though  :thumbup:

After hearing that sound clip, yeah, I would say it is.

You know, God forbid anyone ever pick an appropriate location for a last stand. Trying to defend a location with multiple avenues of approach is idiocy. Pull back to a straight section of passageway with the lift at your back and then lay down a final protective fire. Before long the demon mutants will be struggling to crawl over the piles of other dead creatures. The only weakness in the plan is the ventilation ducts, because science facilities always have them, and they always end up screwing us over when the alien apocalypse comes a-knockin'.

I was having a particularly bad and annoying day at work, read this on my lunch break, very funny, made me ready to return to my duties with a smile on my face, however I much prefer my father's saying "And now the Bandini will impact the General Electric air circulator". I am going to add this one to my Netflix que and make the little woman watch it with me.

You know, MRE cheese never goes bad. It changes color, and the older it gets the more alarming the colors become, but even after twenty years it's still edible.

Or to quote from Schlock Mercenary, it doesn't go bad, it only goes worse.  :tongueout:

"The fecal matter is really hitting the rotary cooling device."

Really!? They actually paid someone to write that.

I am somewhat surprised. As that sounds like something Andrew might make up for one of his reviews.

Anyway, for those of you who do not speak Euphemism, it translates as "The s@#t is really hitting the fan."

Its a shame that this movie felt short they could have done something good with it, the customs where really cool and the creatures too. But the story was crap and the acting that bad i also give it a 1

That is soo true.   :cheers:  I think it is in the template when people write up the scripts.   :bouncegiggle:

Movies like this just strengthen my belief that all space expeditions should carry at least one squad of Grey Knight Terminators.  The problem would have been solved so quickly...
"Bastard spawn of Satan?  You want this one Bob?"
"Yeah, hand me the frigging psycannon, I'll be back in an hour.  DO NOT eatmy MRE cheese while I'm gone,I'm saving that for dinner."
