    Based on the Korean legend, unknown creatures will return and devastate the planet. Reporter Ethan Kendrick is called in to investigate the matter...

    IMDB

    Trailer

    I have to say, this film looks like it could be pretty good, but hopefully it wont turn out like Godzilla did.

    Also I had the sneaking suspicion this was cloverfield.. seems similar

    Edit
    Going by it's 4.4/10 rating on IMDB and the poor reviews it got on there, I guess I should take it back. Still though, the trailer looks good.

    I've been waiting to see this for awhile now. Looks like perfect Friday night fodder. Chances are it will go straight to DVD over here, which is a shame as the prospect of watching Dragons fighting military technology on the big screen is rather enticing.

    I saw the trailer, and thought it looked abysmal.

    But its got big fu-ck off dragons. After Reign of Fires lack of dragons fighting helicopters, like the poster promised D-War looks like we may finially get some.

    Plus it's got Robert Foster.

    This looks like one of the worst movie made and I bet they spend a sh1t load of money on it with all that CGI

    I think the trailer looks woeful.


    Quite liked Reign of Fire though. The post-apocolyptic setting probably helped.

    Yes it is and no they didnt :) This is a film that even if you leave your brain at the door you still cant help notice how dumb it is.

    When I first heard about it I was excited. A race of dinosaur people attacking humanity with various dragons and other monsters at their disposal instead of vehicles. Unfortunately the giant snake is a bit much for me.

    Looks a bit Boa vs Python-ish :D

    Ah, Boa Vs. Python. One of the most enjoyably brain dead films I've ever had the pleasure to watch. It's up there with Frankenfish.

    Have you been rooting through my DVD shelf?
    You might like Eye of the Beast ;)

    I liked the look of the trailer but WOW the movie is dreadful >_<

    I must look into acquiring a Eye of the Beast. It looks like it will fit in very nicely with Tibor Takacs work.

    I assume you've seen the most excellent Python. I know a certain other individual who posted in this thread has and loves it.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 29,930 ✭✭✭✭TerrorFirmer


    Python actually, for a ultra cheap movie, had good special effects that were strangely miles better then Boa vs Python. I've not seen Python 2 though but these days I don't really watch any movies really let alone those kind so it may be some time....

    Speaking of Dragons though who else has seen Dean Cain in his 'finest' role since Superman

    And practically Reign of Fire with the title erased and replaced. :D

    Dragon Fighter is'nt a bad film. One of those films that's perfect viewing on a weekday afternoon whn you're supposed to be working. I've always liked Dean Cain as an actor and while he's made some truely terrible films, he's also turned in a number of great performances.

    As for Dragon Storm, the less said the better. Any good will John Rhys-Davies accumulated with the Lord of the Rings film he pi5sed away by agreeing to star in that travesty.

    I'm surprised his credibility lasted that long with you. It went out the window when I saw this . I reckon they ran out of money 30 seconds into shooting. It shows. :D

    Cyborg Cop was a truely terrible experiance. I think the entire budget was spent on the napkins upon which the script was scribbled, by a group of over active, illiterat 10 year olds.

    Davies is'nt a bad actor. Like an awful lot of his contemparies he makes some truely horrible career choices. Sliders was excellent for the first three seasons and the man is the voice of Manray in SpongeBob SquarePants. Shame even that's not enough to redeem him.
