In the Fiji islands, the greedy and unscrupulous owner of the Valalola Resort Primal Park invites investors and guests for an opening party of his compound composed of hotel and zoo aiming to find partners for his discoveries. When a bunch of college smalltime thieves puts a virus in the security system to participate in a scavenger hunt, the greatest attractions of the zoo - sabretoothes from the prehistoric age developed from DNA found in fossils - escape, killing the hosts and guards for fun.

Unshakable, witty and deeply felt, the film will be paying emotional dividends for a long, long time.

All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.

Atrocious: no-name actors, appalling CGI, predictable plot and stereotyped characters. You have to wonder why this film was made... Is it a parody? It surely can't be anything else? This inept film doesn't have much going for it. A kind of JURASSIC PARK with the billionaire messing around with genetics and coming up with sabretooth tigers. The script calls them huge but they look like pussycats. The cast is ineffectual: Robert Carradine doing a Jack Nicholson impression, Nicholas Bell being British and boring and Stacy Haiduk trying to exude sexuality - and flunking. The sub-plot involves - what else? - a group of mindless college kid clichés. There's no suspense.

Talk about a blatant rip off of the Jurassic Park movies!!! It would be forgivable if only it was a good movie. Did not happen! Thew whole plot of the movie seemed to be let us see how much fake gore and guts we can throw out there. The acting was sub par in general and terrible with a couple of the characters. Your security chief is off banging the maintenance guy when things start to go wrong, the owner is a total tool and his brother-in-law is a louse. Most of the employees think there are only two cats but as the movie drags on there is a third, crippled one and at the end I guess the two mobile ones had kits judging by the last scene. gosh I sure hope there isn't a sequel. I sure won't watch it. The cats are bulimic so they kill, puke, and kill some more. Okay, if they can't keep food down how are they still alive? That was never addressed in the movie. A really poorly done movie.

i don't think that this movie is quite as bad as most of the people say on here, yeah the acting ain't the greatest, and the plot is stretched to say the least, but what do you honestly expect when you rip off Jurassic Park .. come on people.. this time it's the dreaded Sabre Tooth Tiger there are 3 total in the movie,, and one is just plain ugly and deformed, the kids in this movie are on a scavenger hunt, and disable the security system, leaving pandora's box wide open for the large feline species to get out of their habitat. I really had a laugh when the first guy messed up and chased his piece of porno mag into the secured gate area, upon trying to fetch it he winds up as the main course for one of the cats, overall i wish people wouldn't bash this , it wasn't intended to be a blockbuster,, it was on sci-fi late at night . so folks what does that tell you..

The film starts with a manager (Nicholas Bell) giving welcome investors (Robert Carradine) to Primal Park . A secret project mutating a primal animal using fossilized DNA, like ¨Jurassik Park¨, and some scientists resurrect one of nature's most fearsome predators, the Sabretooth tiger or Smilodon . Scientific ambition turns deadly, however, and when the high voltage fence is opened the creature escape and begins savagely stalking its prey - the human visitors , tourists and scientific.Meanwhile some youngsters enter in the restricted area of the security center and are attacked by a pack of large pre-historical animals which are deadlier and bigger . In addition , a security agent (Stacy Haiduk) and her mate (Brian Wimmer) fight hardly against the carnivorous Smilodons. The Sabretooths, themselves , of course, are the real star stars and they are astounding terrifyingly though not convincing. The giant animals savagely are stalking its prey and the group run afoul and fight against one nature's most fearsome predators. Furthermore a third Sabretooth more dangerous and slow stalks its victims.The movie delivers the goods with lots of blood and gore as beheading, hair-raising chills,full of scares when the Sabretooths appear with mediocre special effects.The story provides exciting and stirring entertainment but it results to be quite boring .The giant animals are majority made by computer generator and seem totally lousy .Middling performances though the players reacting appropriately to becoming food.Actors give vigorously physical performances dodging the beasts ,running,bound and leaps or dangling over walls . And it packs a ridiculous final deadly scene. No for small kids by realistic,gory and violent attack scenes . Other films about Sabretooths or Smilodon are the following : ¨Sabretooth(2002)¨by James R Hickox with Vanessa Angel, David Keith and John Rhys Davies and the much better ¨10.000 BC(2006)¨ by Roland Emmerich with with Steven Strait, Cliff Curtis and Camilla Belle. This motion picture filled with bloody moments is badly directed by George Miller and with no originality because takes too many elements from previous films. Miller is an Australian director usually working for television (Tidal wave, Journey to the center of the earth, and many others) and occasionally for cinema ( The man from Snowy river, Zeus and Roxanne,Robinson Crusoe ). Rating : Below average, bottom of barrel.
