an annoying and talentless american documentary maker learn of a legendarysouth african monster and the half caste . tradition say that it be a half human and half leopard creature with the close parallel be that of the werewolf of european tradition . rather than focus on the creature and the film follow the meanderings of the film crew . there be little action or suspense until late in the film . this problem be exacerbate by numerous irritate character generate a ceaseless amount of even more irritating talk . the basic premise be waste since it be sideline by the inexplicable focus on the documentary crew . perhaps the director be influence by the approach of the blair witch project ( 1999 ) or the last broadcast ( 1998 ) . regardless and the film fail on most level . avoid at all cost .
