High Desert Kill Trailers

Jim and Brad make their annual hunting trip to the desert, but this year everything is different: Their third partner, Paul, has died in an accident and they've taken his nephew, Ray, along in his place. When they arrive, though, there's not a single animal to be found, only a grizzled old-timer who joins them. When they meet two female campers, they all begin to behave aggressively, unable to resist their animal urges. The next morning the women have disappeared, but the strange moods and behaviors persist and change in ominous ways. Something has them in its grip and it has total control over them...

Fun premise, good actors, bad writing. This film seemed to have potential at the beginning but it quickly devolves into a trite action film. Ultimately it's very boring.

Possibly the finest film I have ever seen. After receiving this movie from my brother for my birthday along with "Air Disasters 2" from a dollar bin at a 49er video, my expectations were low. However, the movie started off with a bang and engulfed me into its majesty.In the first scene it punches you in the mouth with the classic, "What can I say? Men bond; women network." Followed up by a man receiving a gun in a gym and pointing it at pedestrians walking outside on the street. "All right. Good deal!" Just when you think the hits have stopped coming you get kicked in the ca-hones with, "Good god, if I wanted to hear old women bicker, I'd go visit my great aunt --- AT THE NURSING HOME!" Which promptly led to possibly the greatest cinematic sequence of all time, which we will simply refer to as 'campfire madness'.If you have not seen this movie yet, do as the immortal actor Chuck Conner, who plays Stan the Mountain Man says --- "Go on. Take a look. RARRRRRRR, rip you open like a sack of manure!"

First the good news."High Desert Kill" is what bad movies are supposed to be, and I guess that's good. Now for the bad news. You will absolutely be mesmerized by the pathetic acting by everyone involved, including Chuck Conners. It's like they just got the script the day of shooting. All the animals are gone and human behavior is being altered by some unseen force. Now just sort of wing it for ninety minutes. Keep the audience guessing or put them to sleep, or both. This movie is what it is, and what it is, is bad. The only redeeming feature is the eerie New Mexico landscape, but you could buy a postcard and save ninety minutes of your life. "High Desert Kill" is a keeper for all the wrong reasons, sort of a gold standard for the worst of the worst. - MERK

The film is very different and good at the same time. Chuck Connors was great. Marc Singer was good and I thought he looked a lot like Kevin Bacon in the film.This movie looked at a different way of aliens. If you like Chuck Connors and strange films about aliens then see High Desert Kill!

This film is special. Having Just read Cal 37 review, I can only whole heartedly agree with it. It is just plain terrible!!! The acting is so wooden, and the script is hilarious (note chuck connors "blood rings the dinner bell"). Back to the acting - if anyone has ever seen this film, cast your mind back to when they first arrive in the desert in the jeep. Note the "stretching scene" when they get out of the jeep. It is so overdone - it had me in stitches. And as for the dancing and party scene - well, what can I say, apart from "can you still get crazy old timer?". And as for the dancing? Does anyone actually dance like that in real life? If they do, then they need serious help. So funny.And uncle paul - well what a role he had in the film. After this film he must've had so many offers to star in such hollywood greats as this "film" is................Check it out, just for the sheer hilarity of it all. Laughed? I nearly cried.10,000 volts.............................
