Consensus: Director Gulager makes the most of what he's given; the resulting Feast offers up some surprisingly tasty -- if far from nourishing -- morsels.
Rated: R [See Full Rating] for pervasive strong violence and gore, language, some sexuality and drug content.

Reviews for Feast
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.
John Gulager delivers with a horror-comedy reminiscent of the debuts by Sam Raimi and Peter Jackson.
The word 'unwatchable' is overused when it comes to bad movies, but this is a case when its employment does not represent hyperbole.
[Injects] an unusual ferocity into the moments of random bloodshed, but fails to do much with the long, arid stretches between beheadings and eyeball pluckings.
Basically 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.
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.
Rather than catching Feast during its limited midnight-movie theatrical release, one can enjoy comparable B-movie goofiness via any Saturday-night Sci-Fi Channel offering.
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.
