*full disclosure: a Blu-Ray screener of this film was provided by Anchor Bay Entertainment.
Director: George Mendeluk.
Writer: D. Todd Deeken.
The Terror Experiment from Anchor Bay Entertainment is not terrifying at all. This is a horror film without a sharp edge. The film feels dull and the characters in The Terror Experiment seem dull as well. With a little cursory digging, the reason for this lackluster showing becomes apparent. Director George Mendeluk's background is in television and his made for television style of directing does not transition well to a straight-to-dvd release. The music is generic, the story is generic and even buildings are not given names. Instead, they get an anonymous title like "Federal Building." All of these elements and many more make The Terror Experiment a candidate for Worst Film of 2012 on 28Dla.
This film does not really deserve fleshing out as none of the ideas...
