A great movie, one of the best of this year. There was a bit of confusion at one point in the plot, but nothing serious.

ATTACK OF THE SABRETOOTH is another cheesy-as-hell Sci-Fi Channel special, a low budget monster flick in which a few poorly-acting cast members are hounded by a dodgy CGI creation which inevitably whittles them off one at a time. This one's an open rip-off of JURASSIC PARK, with the action set on a remote tropical island which is host to a new tourist attraction: genetically engineered sabretooth tigers. Inevitably, the beasts escape, with the usual ensuing bloodshed.This is as silly as it sounds and yet it's also plenty of fun, as is the way with these cheap 'n' cheerful B-flicks. The CGI animation of the sabretooth is just about passable, but eclipsed by an extraordinarily dodgy statue animation which looks like it belongs in a console game circa 1995. Why they couldn't have just built a real statue out of papier mache or something I don't know - it would have been ten times as convincing.Inevitably there are plenty of laugh-out-loud moments from the bad actors and the silly death scenes, and at least there's some low rent gore to be enjoyed here. The only slightly familiar face in the cast is that of Robert Carradine, the least well known of the Carradine family to begin with. The good news is that ATTACK OF THE SABRETOOTH is short and to the point, over before you have a chance to get irritated by it.

The characters are awful and not funny or pleasant and the story is a terrible Jurassik Park rip-off with a bad collection of clichés. Basically all the lines and situations are poor and stupid, but the winner is when the guard explains that the sabretoothes are bulimic and like to kill for pleasure. My vote is three.Title (Brazil): "O Ataque do Dente de Sabre" ("The Attack of the Sabretooth")

The film is about a sabretooth on the lose at a amusement park where teens are on a scavenger hunt. Since there are no rules they break into a building and start getting killed off. The deaths are cheesy and are dumb. But at least it had better effects then sabretooth. I gave it a three because Stacy was in it and I loved the movie Sabretooth. I thought it was okay but some deaths were off-screen. There was a dumb scene where the two teens kiss and the sabretooth's head pops out and the boy leaves his girlfriend behind leaving her to have her totally fake looking red guts out. Then the sabretooth gets up in the vents and bites the kids head off. The end death with the owner was totally fake looking graphics. Even that death was stupid because the statues tooth went through his mouth and hangs there like that will support it and there is a scene when a goth girl loses her contacts doesn't find them, and seems like she doesn't need the. The film is idiotic and a waste of time.

I caught this on SciFi on while ago and it's one of the better SciFi original movies out there. That's not saying much, but I enjoyed it.Story- I'll say it now, the story sucks. It's a rip off of Jurassic Park. The theme park is called Primal Park and it even has the same logo, with a sabretooth. We have the typical group of college students, a smart Asian, a hot love interest, a goth girl, a dumb jock, and a dumb blonde. And we have the typical greedy business owner who suffers a terrible fate. Plus, a security guard in an affair with a park employee that really makes no sense. Oh, and the business owner's evil brother-in-law. Yeah, I'll stop there. Story gets a 1 out of 10.Effects- The special effects are so bad it's funny. First, a couple of nameless security guards get offed in the most unrealistic way possible. Then, when we see the sabretooths, they look so fake, it's disturbing. Then, three of the main characters suffer three of the fakest, and funniest, decapitations in movie history. Remember I said the greedy business owner suffers a terrible fate. Well, the tooth on a giant sabretooth structure falls right into his mouth, instantly killing the man, resulting in the stupidest, most pointless, death in movie history. Again, it is hilarious. I'll say the effects are average due to the humorous fakeness, and give them a 5 out of 10.Rewatchability- Let's just say, it's funny the first time you watch it, but it gets old fast.So, in the end, the only thing that makes this an average movie is the hilarious deaths. None of the others are quite as funny as the tooth in the mouth, but they're all pretty funny, especially since it's impossible for you to feel bad for any of them with the crappy story. I recommend watching it once, but don't buy it. 5 out of 10.
