Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaAt one point the archaeology professor comments about him and his students being being in The Alabama Hills, Anybody who has ever lived in or passed though Alabama would never mistake it for Northern California where the movie was filmed. However there is an area in Inyo County California which is near the eastern slope of the Sierra Nevada Mountains called The Alabama Hills, named after the CSS Alabama.
- GoofsThe chief says; "It is Indian for grapevine." No self respecting American Native would say that. He would identify the appropriate language.
Featured review
just to see all those old actors again from the B-genre
1986 brought us Chopping Mall from director Jim Wynorski, a classic in the genre. This here, Bone Eater won't be remembered. It contains a lot of very cheap and bad CGI but it's worth watching for the old thespians to see.
I guess that the budget went to the casting in stead of the effects. Main lead is by Bruce Boxleitner (Tron legacy (1982 and 2010)), but there are others to recogniz, Willam Katt from House (1986), Walter Koenig (from the Star Trak saga as Chekov),Veronica Hamel from Hill Street Blues (1981-1987) and Jim Storm from Dark Shadows (1966).
The story itself was rather okay and the acting was also okay but the CGI teared it into a funny flick. To give you an example of cheap effects, the earthquakes were done by shaky camera's and you could easily see that the trees weren't moving.
If you want to see the old brigade again than this is surely one to watch as a starter on a horror night with your pals. But if you think it will be a scary flick, forget it.
