The Worst Film Ever

Taraparain

Tells a fascinating and unsettling true story, and does so well, without pretending to have all the answers.

While it is a pity that the story wasn't told with more visual finesse, this is trivial compared to our real-world problems. It takes a good movie to put that into perspective.

Very good movie overall, highly recommended. Most of the negative reviews don't have any merit and are all pollitically based. Give this movie a chance at least, and it might give you a different perspective.

Overall, the film is action-packed and keeps the viewer's interest. It's full of suspense and kept me on-edge. The plot is in a science lab with, Lance Henriksen, the scientist, and his E-MAX Project. An investigation is conducted when an E-MAX employee goes missing and local news reporters infiltrate E-MAX and steal a test subject (MAX). The reporter and animal activist, Lori Tanner (Alley Sheedy), bites off more than she can chew when she gets to know the real MAX. In my opinion, this is a well written and well produced film. A friendly warning, there are some extremely heart- wrenching scenes but still a great movie.

"Man's Best Friend", about a genetically altered dog that kills any perceived threat, is pretty much what you'd expect. Ally Sheedy really chews the scenery as the reporter investigating cruelty to animals and inadvertently releasing the bloodthirsty pooch. But no matter, the movie still is pretty fun to watch, with the full understanding that it's basically a totally dumb flick. Lance Henriksen, playing the scientist who created the murderous hound, lets his face do the acting.Like I said, it's mostly just a fun movie to watch. Definitely nothing special about it. Although I should admit that I'd never heard of a Tibetan mastiff until I read a description of the movie.

This is a film that gives new life to the awesome possibilities of genetic testing and breeding in animals. I found it rather amusing.The real star of the film is a 130lb. Tibetan Mastiff named "Max". Truly a beautiful animal to say the least but as portrayed in this film, he can be quite frightening!I would not suggest children under the age of 10 watch this. Its not real bad but you don't want to frighten your child of dogs. Tibetan Mastiffs are known for their deep "bellowing" bark which is often compared to that of a Fog Horn! This movie could easily scare a young, unsuspecting child.It does get started a little quick but is still a movie worth watching. Its great for those nights alone, cuddled up on the couch with some popcorn.

This film is great, its just a shame its so hard to get. its wickedly gory and some awesome ideas make this a classic. I'm a big horror fan and it takes a lot to please me, and believe me this film does it. Before i watched this i wanted a rot now i think i've changed my mind. This film is great and i think every one should see it, well adults anyway, this is definitely not for kids. some of the kill scenes are a bit far fetched but i think that adds to the fun. Ignore the others and listen to me you want this film. i only gave it a 9 because its so hard to get. Get this film it will make you laugh, cry, scream and go running for mommy.
