there be two type of bad film represent bad film that be fun and somehow end up be good and and bad film that be no fun and only manage to be crap . give the plot line and this bad film really should have belong to the former group while but somehow it doesn not manage it and end up be a part of the latter . quite how a film about ravenous and over sized animal could be so boring escape me and but somehow director bert i. gordon have manage to make it so . the film be base on a story by the great h. g. well and and while i haven not read it and i think it safe to say that the food of the god be a lot well on paper than it be on screen . the plot focus on a group of friend who go hunt on a canadian island . it not long before they be attack by a group of wasp and but theyre not just any wasps theyre giant aggressive wasp . one of their number be kill by the wasp and so the friend go look for help and when they come upon a barn inhabit by giant chicken . it not long before they put two and two together and realise that something funny be go on shortly before they meet the most dangerous creature on the island and the rat . giant animal film do not tend to be high quality and and this one do nothing to buck that trend . most of the action be unexciting and and when you have get people battle giant animal that really shouldn not be the case . the special effect be decent in place and the rat attack look decent enough consider that this be a very low quality film and but some of the effect look terrible and the gore isn not any good either . the plot be fairly basic and there isn not much explanation for anything and which be a shame a the story basically just lay out it stall ( a load of white goo trickle down the side of the mountain ) and let the giant creature take it from there while but the giant aren not enough to keep thing entertain and and the film fail for that reason . it become hard to care about anything shortly after the film start and and that doesn not get any good a it move on . probably quite unsurprisingly and i wasn not impress at all with the food of the god and and that a shame a this could have be quite decent if it have be handle well . i can not really recommend waste time with this film shiny new dvd release or not .
