Editorial Review:
Description: At a rural bar, a motley bunch of patrons struggle to survive a ravenous family of flying beasts bent on devouring every last one of them.
Amazon.com: In need of some good old-fashioned gore? You'll find it by the bucketload in the low-budget monsterfest Feast, which arrives on DVD in an even bloodier unrated edition. The winning entry in the third season of Ben Affleck and Matt Damon's reality series/talent contest Project Greenlight (Wes Craven is also on board as an advisor/producer), Feast is a wall-to-wall splatterthon that operates on an agreeably simple premise: A crew of motley characters is trapped in a remote location (in this case, a desert bar) by ravenous, flesh-eating monsters (here, a quartet of toothy and astoundingly fecund humanoids). The result? Lots of gruesome deaths and plenty of manic action, delivered with kinetic style by first-time feature director John Gulager. Not everything about Feast works--Gulager's drive is thwarted by the unfocused script, which favors smarmy dialogue over substance--but the effects are impressive, given the film's price tag, and the cast is incredibly game for the gory goings-on, with Krista Allen (Entourage), Judah Friedlander (30 Rock), Balthazar Getty (Alias), and Gulager's father, veteran actor Clu Gulager, among the stand-outs. The DVD includes a smattering of outtakes and deleted scenes (including an alternate ending); commentary by Gulager, the screenwriters, and two of the film's numerous producers; and a making-of featurette, which Project Greenlight viewers should find interesting solely for producers Chris Moore and Michael Leahy's attitudes towards Gulager (both were a hair's breath away from firing him throughout the production, but here, amusingly suggest unconditional support). -- Paul Gaita

Rating: - A fun horror film!
I went to a friend's house to hang out one night. He said I needed to watch this film. We put it in the DVD player, and he was right! The Feast, over all, was a very creative and entertaining film. It kind of reset the rules a bit for what can happen in a horror film. If you're a fan of crazy gory violent films that also have a decent story and fun characters, this film is for you.
Rating: - It Coulda Been a Winnah
For the first l5 minutes, I thought I was onto something cool and different. Each of the mob of characters are introduced with a cutting edge freeze-frame bio. But after awhile I couldn't keep track of who was who. And then the action started. A stranger crashes his way into a tavern to warn the people that some monsters are on their way. They come crashing against the walls and windows.
The gallery of characters begin to defend themselves, with much gore and blood splashing the walls. ... Read More
Rating: - Feast (Unrated Edition)
i loved it... it you like horror movies this is worth adding to the collection
Rating: - more than decent horror flick...
The DVD cover for "Feast" always intrigued me when I'd see it in the local Blockbuster. I picked it up at Walmart on a whim last week for $5. I gotta say, hell of a deal. This is a very fun(ny) and very gory horror movie, with a surprising number of known (more or less) actors...including McSteamy from Grey's Anatomy, Henry Rollins, one of the girls from The O.C., Jay from "Jay and Silent Bob" and "Clerks"...some others as well. The plot is very straight forward...a group of people must band together ... Read More
Rating: - Gore but boring as hell.
Ok, I am a huge fan of gore films and I love horror movies. The Exorcist? Loved it. Hellraiser? Can't get enough of it. But, I watched this movie back when it first came out on dvd thinking it was going to be awesome. It definitely delivered on gore and shocking scenes. On the other hand it really didn't make much sense. To me many of the scenes were pointless. And, I just kept asking myself "Really?" If you want a ton of gore and blood with a boring story line and don't really care about a plot. Then ... Read More
