Average Rating:5.8/10

Consensus: Director Gulager makes the most of what he's given; the resulting Feast offers up some surprisingly tasty -- if far from nourishing -- morsels.

Runtime: 1 hr 32 mins

Genre: Horror/Suspense

The... "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 film will hit theatres nationwide for special late night showings around the country on September 22 and 23, 2006. The special showings will be followed by the DVD launch of "Feast" on October 17, 2006. Directed by Project Greenlight winner and first time filmmaker John Gulager, "Feast" is the terrifying tale of a motley crew of strangers who find themselves trapped in an isolated tavern and must band together in a battle for survival against a family of flesh-hungry creatures. "Feast" will open in theaters nationwide for special late night screening beginning on September 22nd and 23rd. -- © Weinstein Co. [More]

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.

Feast 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.

The uncut version is a rip-roaring, blood-spattered blast of high-octane entertainment that is thoroughly enjoyable, exuberant fun.

A slight, forgettable film, not without energy or humor, with an inexhaustible taste for sending up B-movie trash.

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

Feast does a good job of sending up the genre while maintaining its horror cred.

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.

...more exhausting than frightening or funny, it is more likely to induce earache than laughs or shivers.

It works as a funny and slicker-than-expected parody of the genre.

The first two "Project Greenlight" films got only brief local runs. Feast isn't likely to do much better.

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.

Feast suffers from spastic camera syndrome, along with a debilitating bout of hyper-editing disorder.

It hits hard and fast, letting up only to inject some black humor and amp up the tension again before coming back for more.

By any objective standard, Feast isn't a good movie, but by those of its low-rent genre it's kind of fun.

What has ended up on screen is a pretty good horror flick that is marred only by obvious budgetary restraints

...nasty, brutish, and short, just like Hobbes said all horror flicks should be.
