Review of Primal

Primal (2010)
6/10
Better than Expected

Warning: Spoilers
This was certainly better than I expected. It starts off with the typical group of young people going off into the jungle (woods, desert, mountains, whatever) to look at ancient drawings (hike, ski, snowboard, explore caves, whatever) and they come across something out of the ordinary, in this case a poisonous lake that *SPOILER ALERT* turns their dear friend into a cannibal rage-monster with super human strength and agility. So, all of this is typical, but for once the acting was decent. The script twists and turns were pretty good too and the heroine was cool enough that I was cheering for her, since she had way more balls then the cowardly boyfriend who couldn't accept that his girl was now a monster. Anyway, this has one of the most horrific rape scenes I've ever seen. And, in the end the heroine triumphs. So, it's all good. This wasn't great, but it was certainly worth watching.
