bone eater be set in a small desert town in alabama where property developer dick krantz ( jim storm ) be finance the building of a huge resort . late one night three of his worker riley ( timothy starks ) and hansen ( adrian alvarado ) and miller ( paul rae ) be dig foundation in the desert when they unearth what look like a tomahawk axe and unfortunately for them an ancient native american demon call the bone eater come along and kill them . local sheriff steve evans ( bruce boxleitner ) soon have krantz breathe down his neck a the construction of his resort grind to a halt and sheriff evans also have to deal with the bone eater demon a it kill anyone it come across . you know i consider myself a fairly big fan of the horror and sci fi genre and i certainly do not think my opinion be worth more than anyone else ( unlike many here on the imdb . ) but please believe me when i say that bone eater be the bad sci fi channel creature feature i have ever see and it up against some damn strong competition . a a horror and sci fi fan there be two name that when involve with a film send shudder down my spine in anticipation of how bad it will turn out and those name be jesus i have no talent franco who have nothing to do with bone eater and jim wynorski who direct the absolute disaster that be bone eater . in fact bone eater be so bad wynorski hid under the pseudonym bob robertson and when a director as bad a wynorski hide under a pseudonym you know the film must be bad . where do i even start . bone eater be quite simply the bad film i have see this year and be so bad it untrue and the story be awful and the script be sloppy ( at one point sheriff evans tell kia to meet him at the hospital but when they meet there later he act surprised and say what be you do here . and at one point sheriff evans triumphantly claim that we be in the twentieth century and that ancient native american demon be nonsense although actually we be in the twenty first century now and there a part when a woman tell in flashback the story where three men awaken the bone eater and it kill them but since it kill all three of them how do anyone else know about it for it to be pass down in legend . ) and at time it get more than a little bit embarrass . the character be horrible clichés and the small town sheriff who save the day and his daughter becomes involve which add some personal motivation and a for the native american there an old wise man and a young hot head who hat white man and a young woman who be the voice of reason between the two who have name like storm cloud and black hawk . the film be as boring a hell and nothing happens and the story be awful and it full of plot hole and lapse in any sort of logic and the set piece be terrible and there no horror or gore or suspense or mystery and bone eater be just the sort of film that make you lose the will to live . bone eater have some of the bad cgi computer effect i have see in a while and from the daft look stiff move bone eater creature itself which be just a selection of bone magically hold together to a motorbike jump a large gap to an awful cgi truck crash over the edge of a cliff to a van be toss to one side by the bone eater . whenever the bone eater need to get some speed up he cause a large horse to form from the sand and dust and rid it . in principal this be actually quite a neat idea but it look awful and the scene even have cheesy cowboy music on the soundtrack . there be one pointless scene at the end when sheriff evans cut his own arm ( why . ) and it bleed but apart from that there isn not a single drop of blood in the thing and whenever the bone eater kill someone they usually just disappear in a cloud of dust and boring . the hilariously goofy climatic showdown between sheriff evans and the bone eater have to be see to be believe and sheriff evans go native on horseback complete with tribal war paint on his face while the bone eater also rid his dust horse and they have a sort of jousting contest which be just to bad to describe properly . with a supposed budget of about $ 700 and 000 bone eater be film in a very bland and forgettable and flat way and there no sense of style here at all . the majority of the film take place in bright sunlight and if you watch it on a decent telly then the desert scenery be quite nice on occasion . there be several veteran know actor really slum it here and boxleitner play exactly the same role a in the similarly theme but much good creature feature snakehead terror ( 2004 ) and william katt will obviously put his name to any crap as long a he get pay while ex star trek man walter koenig must be really desperate to agree to appear in this . bone eater be a truly atrocious creature feature and there really not much more you can say about it other than to steer well clear of it . the bad film ever to appear on the sci fi channel and that say something and isn not it .
