Bovie Movie

An ex-Navy SEAL faces his riskiest mission yet when he’s forced to compete for his life in this modern variation of the classic survival tale The Most Dangerous Game. The odds may be stacked against him, but when Dakota Varley is drugged, kidnapped, and thrown into the jungle with the singular goal of surviving a brutal human hunt, he has no other choice than to fight for survival. If Varley is the last man standing, he’ll take home a 10 million dollar prize, but if he fails, he’ll die a lonely death in the jungle. With surroundings that are as deadly as the men who track his every move, it will take more than training for Dakota Varley to survive this twisted game of death.

There are a few good things about this movie, but the negatives are so overwhelming that I could only give it a 1 on the ole 1 to 10 scale. The cinematography is very pretty and the miniature set models are excellent. At least I think they’re models. Everything about this movie is so bogus that they may actually be real locations which the directors (yes, it took two directors to cook this turkey) somehow managed to make look like models.

With two directors you’d think that it might only be half-bad. Instead it’s doubly pretentious. The lovely Denise Boutte may well be the hammiest actor on planet Earth. Rhett Giles as Van Helsing looks like a reject from the Pet Shop Boys, and his acting is nearly as overblown and stuffy as Ms. Boutte’s. Every line by just about every “actor” is recited in emo overdrive.
