The word 'unwatchable' is overused when it comes to bad movies, but this is a case when its employment does not represent hyperbole.

Consensus: Director Gulager makes the most of what he's given; the resulting Feast offers up some surprisingly tasty -- if far from nourishing -- morsels.
Theatrical Release:Sep 22, 2006 Limited
Synopsis: "Feast" is the highly anticipated horror movie whose inception and production was made possible and documented by the third season of the hit show "Project Greenlight" on the Bravo network. The... [More]

Reviews for Feast
Top CriticThe uncut version is a rip-roaring, blood-spattered blast of high-octane entertainment that is thoroughly enjoyable, exuberant fun.
07/11/08
amidst all the gleeful profanity, gross character stereotyping, outrageous interspecies rape and gory grotesquery, an apparent lack of originality is the one thing that should not cause undue offence here.
09/11/08
With some amusing performances (Jason Mewes and Henry Rollins, in particular) and an appealingly random sense of humor, Feast hits more often than it misses.
09/21/06
Feast has all the earmarkings of one of those cult films best seen at midnight, in a crowded theater, with a rowdy audience of horror geeks and drunken college kids. It's a raucous, gory, and wild ride%u2014let's hope it finds the appreciative audience it
02/28/07
Feast isn't quite demented enough to reach Raimi-an heights, but Gulager uses parts of the monster-movie buffalo even the buffalo didn't know existed.
09/20/06
Top CriticCheap-looking, gore-drenched and so postmodern and self-consciously above it all that it’s hard to care about anyone’s fate, Feast is sort of a mean-spirited variation on the vastly superior Tremors.
09/22/06
Anyone who has ever followed the Project Greenlight television show probably will agree that... the movies all suck... Feast does not turn this around.
09/22/06
Gulager and team have piled on the bloodletting to dam-breaking effect ogling that line between extreme horror & giddy glee that masters Sam Raimi & Peter Jackson perfected.
10/18/05
And the 3rd season of Project Greenlight proves the charm with the slick, sick but funny bit of Grand Guignol directed by Hollywood son John Gulager.
09/21/06
That Feast can so carefully balance well-played horror and comedy throughout its entire running time is a sure indicator that it is bound to become a cult classic.
10/17/06
The action is manic, the monsters are ghastly and the situations, dialog and casting are on-purpose laughable.
09/22/06
Top CriticJohn Gulager delivers with a horror-comedy reminiscent of the debuts by Sam Raimi and Peter Jackson.
09/21/06
The sepia-toned freeze frames that introduce each character with their names, occupations and life expectancy are a lot of fun, but ultimately the action is cut too fast and too close to be able to tell what’s going on.
09/30/06
When monsters attack, the camera gets all jerky, creating the horror effect known as motion sickness.
09/23/06
Top CriticFeast is a genuinely fun splatter movie that almost never lets up and definitely never takes itself too seriously, going into Evil Dead territory.
09/21/06
While the reality television series that chronicled the making of this low-budget horror film last year was extremely entertaining, the piece of cinema that resulted is kind of a bore.
09/22/06
Top CriticBasically throwing together familiar horror ideas without focusing on any in particular, Feast hopes its wild tone will compensate for the lack of distinctive characters or ideas.
09/20/06
Top CriticIt works as a funny and slicker-than-expected parody of the genre.
10/02/06
Top CriticFeast is too knowing and in its own way, too high profile to be born as cult cinema. But it's a reasonable facsimile and as such deserves a look from the genre connoisseur.
