Ok, first off, I enjoy movies that are so bad, they're good. This is not that
I am a huge Kaiju fan and I love Godzilla Vs. Kong. Going into this, I figured this would be a low budget knockoff attempt at that and I was fine with it. I was actually looking forward to it. I went in with low expectations and was still let down.
As per par for Asylum, the acting, writing, pacing and just everything was abysmal. The "Ape" was actually a chimp (completely different). Not to mention the cover art is a Gorilla, not a chimpanzee.Also, I love how the main character was like, "There's no doubt. That thing is a Gila Monster". What?! It looked nothing like a Gila Monster after it mutated and grew.
The visuals were just terrible. Even for low budget. There was only one shot in the entire film that I thought was cool and that was near the end when the "Gila Monster" came out of the ground at night and was standing in front of some fire. That shot looked decent. The rest? Garbage.
Worst of all, for a movie with the word "VS" in the title, their was almost no Versing going on between the two. Their fight consisted of three moves. Literally, three moves. Monster Punches Chimp/Ape, Monster bites Chimp/Ape, Chimp/Ape breaks Monsters neck. Fin.
A terrible outing, even by Asylum Standards.
