DO NOT WATCH

Why am I homeless?  Why do all you motherfuckers need homes is the real question.

Yeah, complete fucking crap. The film was so dark, I couldn't tell shit about what was going on. Characters seemed to know each other without any explanation. The human fodder was focused on way too much yet developed way too shallow, and the alien/predator hybrid was stupid.

Worst part... well the darkness was pretty bad.  But it had the "1980's horror movie" template so hard that I thought Jason Voorhees was going to get involved.  It even had the "multiracial jock gang" thing and the "dorky guy + hot girl" bit and the "cop and thug are friends" chestnut.

I honestly thought my DVD Player was broken.

For the first time, I knew how Stevie Wonder would feel about a Predator Movie.

I did not mind it but holy crap it was dark I had to adjust the freaking contrast on my tv and turn off all lights in my house and even then it was freaking dark.

I find this film hard to hate because it's got a predator being badass, a cheerleader being impaled to the wall by a 3 foot shuriken and a guy getting his face melted off with alien blood.  Admittedly, that was all in the trailer too. But then there was the scene
I could probably watch this film again if I was totally lubed up on Stella because it's just so fucking hysterically horrendous. I wouldn't recommend watching it sober though. That can do things to a man's mind.

I tried watching this on a random streaming site since I guessed it wouldn't be worth watching and was curious. After trying a dozen places that all seemed to have some shittily dark version (that apparently is what it's actually like) I managed to make it about 20 minutes in before losing interest. I kind of wish I could have at least enjoyed it as a brainless action/horror but god it was bad.

Hehe, I only watched this on Saturday and apparently I had already blocked the thing Draconian spoilered from my mind.  Conversely, I can't seem to block the Dirty Jobs scene where Mike Rowe is squeezing a giant pimple from a goat hide.  Would that I could.
