Screamers: The Hunting (2009)
What a stinker - what will they think of next
Contains Spoilers
What a complete stinker of a movie.
Like Starship Troopers 2 and 3, Screamers : The Hunting suffers from dodgy camera work and a rather weak script (when I mean weak, basically its screamers redone without Petter Weller). Lance Henriksen plays a relatively minor role in the movie and it would of been nice if he had more dialog. Gina Holden does her best but its obvious that she can't pull a rabbit out of her hat to save this flick. Greg Bryk who did such a good job on ReGenesis is a poor choice to play the villain Andy Sexton - he failed to confer the true evil of his characters crimes - though one could argue the script really let him down.
The only redeeming feature is the CGI. It is above average and the new form of screamers are quite frightening to watch.
I gave it a 4 out of 10 because I didn't completely fast forward this movie.
Watch something else.
