Very best movie i ever watch

It is not deep, but it is fun to watch. It does have a bit more of an edge to it than other similar films.

While it doesn't offer any answers, it both thrills and makes you think.

One of the most extraordinary films you will see this year. Take that as you want.

This one has some scientists making hybrid creatures by messing around with DNA and some gene splicing. They create a polar bear from hell that ends up escaping the facility. Being in Alaska you would think they were all alone, but not far from there a swimsuit shoot is taking place in the snow. All the crew involved slowly become eats for the bear.This wasn't good at all. They didn't know how to create tension or even how to keep us engaged. No CGI was used but the bear looks fake when you do see it. I was surprised to see Graham Greene in a creature feature but he was only in it for a few minutes. Even less screen time was Ray Wise. Sherilyn Fenn dominates the screen time and she looks puffier these days.The only thing unnatural is the way they put this film together. Avoid this one.

Have you ever watched a movie and after it was finished you said to yourself (or maybe outloud) "This should have never been made"? Such is the case for After Dark's installment of "Unnatural." The general message of this movie was supposed to be a statement on global warming, climate crisis, melting of the polar icecaps, glacier loss--take your pick. However, somewhere along the way, all that got lost and what you got stuck with was a poor attempt at schlock. It seems that a photographer, his lackey, and two bimbos are off somewhere close to the Arctic Circle for a photo shoot involving fur. Once they arrive at Black Wolf Lodge, you get lots of giggling, posing, jerking about, faux sex (no nudity), and are introduced to characters you really will never care about. The viewer sees the killer bear almost immediately, so there's no tension introduced there. You then get a lot of grunts, huffing, and crackling branches to let you know he's in the vicinity. Supposedly, the particular polar bear is a freak of nature because scientists have (once again) decided to mess with mother nature. Yawn. The makeup for the beast was high-schoolish, as was most of the acting. This truly was much ado about nothing. Rated "R" and it should have been rated PG-13. Not recommended.

Hank Braxtan brings us our third killer bear film of 2015.'Into The Grizzly Maze,' didn't live up to expectations, with it's major cast, and horrible editing, more fit for television than big screen. 'Backcountry,' on the other hand, exceeded expectations, as more of a survival flick, with one gruesome kill scene. So, how does 'Unnatural' hold up? Creature features really depend on the type of director/writer involved. Are they less is more kind of guys, or do they believe in going all out? Believe it or not, bears are rather frightening and dangerous without being genetically modified (Backcountry.) Personally, I would have preferred your normal, ornery, territorial polar bear, but Hank Braxtan wasn't having any of that. He decided to overcompensate for something... So, what could have been a solid experience, ended up being 'Into The Grizzly Maze' set in Alaska. 'Unnatural' just throws in an unnecessary back story about genetics, that no one will care about. We just want to see the bear rip through those typical, annoying characters - played by your typical bad actors/actresses. Oh yes, the cast - Somehow, James Remar continues to get work - and he's as wooden as ever here. Seriously, though, this guy supplies more wood than your local paper mill. Graham Greene pops up for about 3 minutes of screen time (It's nice to see he's still alive.) Sherilyn Fenn may or may not be involved here. I couldn't really tell - She used to be attractive.Random Ramblings of a Madman: If you're going to spend 95% of the film avoiding actual shots of your enormous, genetically modified bear, why not just, you know, use a regular sized Polar bear? I hear those things pack a mean bite. 'Unnatural,' however, does not.

Just saw this outing from my best pal and director Hank Braxtan. You got to love when filmmakers get to put their passions on film. In Braxtan's case it's fun, old school horror with his own special brand of humor. This is definitely one any fan of the genre should check out. While it is obvious that there is budget constraints that the big houses don't worry too much about, there is a definite pacing to the picture that makes you feel as though that every resource available was used with thought and care. A solid performance by Remar, and Fenn's nuance will probably have you scoping out Amazon.com for box sets of Twin Peaks. I had a ton of fun with this one, and if you get a chance to catch it in theaters, I'd be willing to bet it brings a smile to your face as well.
