Alex is dispatched to Nambia on an assignment, and soon finds himself thrown in with a handful of eccentric and unstable locals who are involved in a search for diamonds. When four of the jewel hunters are found dead in the desert with the flesh stripped from their bodies, it's up to Alex to find out what's gone wrong, and he soon learns he's up against a menace unlike anything he's seen before.

    Wow, what can I say about this bad "B" flick. First the concept was lame, the cast were virtually no namers, the ants stole the movie and the writers must have been smoking crack"

    Once upon a time eye was flipping through TV and stumbled upon the Sci-Fi Channel and thought hay look a B movie to add to my review. And what do you know the movie absolutely deserved to be in this list. The acting could have been better done by those kids in the McDonalds adver... read moretisements for all eye know. The plot was simple a monster takes bones and whatnot kills people and repeats throughout. Now eye am a big fan of B movies but there are always movies like this that tell me why they just aren't made with quaility any more. The effects look like they couldv'e been better done by some lazy college kid. Bottom line take every copie of this mutant to Area 51 and bury it in the sand for it fossilize and hopefully never uncovered by future generations.

    Incredible disappointment with this film. Very weak acting with a weak script with very weak CGI. And it movied at such a slow pace, that I fell asleep watching this. I should've knew better than to finish watching this.

    This movie was horribly written, terribly acted and just plain stupid.
    It wasn't scary, or even interesting. Two thumbs down.

Uma idéia imbecil protagonizada por atores sem carisma e dirigida com espetacular incompetência.

Highly derivative, but still watchable, desert-set creature feature which will get your pet aardvark drooling. Full Review
