indiefilmdownloads OK, I see a lot of really bad comments here, but this is one of those low budget shot-on-dv type horror films that stand as far superior to garbage like "Death Factory" & "Jack-O-Lantern" (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0325228/ & http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0113449/).You should see the writing, directing, acting and FX in those films. You watch that junk & it puts ultra-B films such as this one in perspective. Granted, this film isn't the best, but having seen FAR, FAR worse it certainly stands out ahead of the rest.I also agree with some of the other user comments that this film does reminds me of those cheesy 80's films which I just love. And where 80% of filmmakers out there say they can make movies, few ever see world-wide DVD & TV distribution such as this one.Overall, not great, but not the worst either. It at least seems like these producers had fun making it. I rented & watched it, but I wouldn't buy the DVD. None the less, a decent enough try.

Paul Andrews Predator Island starts as six friends, Eric (Tom Dahl), Chris (Dan Gordon) along with Heather (Iris McQuillan-Grace), Kim (Iana Baker) & Denise (Melissa Roby) get invited to spend sometime on Kevin's (Michael Wrann) father's boat partying in the open sea. What could go wrong with such a super sounding idea? Well for starters a big green meteorite could crash into the sea near your boat & an alien life-force could emerge from it & try to kill all of you, then again that's just a ridiculously stupid idea, isn't it?Co-edited, written & directed by Steven Castle I thought Predator Island was crap & it's a simple & straight forward as that really. The script is of the worst kind, you know the sort of abomination that's full of highly annoying teenage character's who do & say the most stupid things, it's full of clichés & is utterly predictable, it makes next-to-no sense, things just suddenly happen without any build up or explanation, it's boring even at only 70 odd minutes & it has virtually no entertainment value whatsoever, not even unintentional laugh value. The film doesn't really have much of what I would call a plot, there's no explanation given as to why or how this alien creature can take over people's minds or why it can be selective in the sense that one moment the person will be 'normal' the next, when the story calls for it & with no apparent cause, they suddenly get green glowing eyes & a sudden urge to turn cannibal. There's not enough horror in it, the so-called action scenes are pitiful & I really don't want to waste another second thinking about Predator Island let alone wasting my precious energy typing these words...Director Castle doesn't do anything to make this thing watchable & the 'special effects' are absolutely terrible, this alien creature dude wouldn't even get into a 50's sci-fi film. The filmmakers even play some blooper footage over the end credits but this has to be the least funny collection of mistakes ever, I mean they can't even get it wrong right if you know what I mean! Forget about any decent gore as there isn't any, there's a bit of cannibalism & some intestines placed on the unfortunate actors stomach so another unfortunate actor can pick them up & pretend to eat them.With a supposed budget of about $150,000 I have to concede that the filmmakers were working on a seriously low budget, that's still no excuse for making such a poor film. The whole thing looks very cheap & the acting is pretty bad.Predator Island is crap, I'm sorry but that's the way it is & I just fail to see what anyone would get out of it. In my humble opinion this probably one to avoid.

S_A_B_1988 this movie is so bad. but its so bad that i was laughing my ass off. for people that like movies, do not watch this one. for people who like movies good and bad, i recommend this one. the story lines shaky,the script is horrible,the acting is horrible to mediocre. the soundtrack throughout the movie was corny but i loved it. the cool catchphrases were a plus tho. ha ha. "if it can bleed, it can die". the fight scenes cracked me up. it seemed to me like they spent more time on those parts than any other cuz the fight scenes for the most part were pretty clean. i almost feel like this movie could have been good if it weren't for the f/x....no it would have still been a crapshoot. the eye thing was corny. and how the chick was eating the guys stomach in the kitchen,they coulda done something where shed be actually eating something or at least put more of the fake blood on her face. and the lighthouse explosion disappointed me. i thought they might have gotten real fire instead of crappy computer synthesized stuff. and the ending was so predictable, which surprised me when they actually did what i though they might do. so overall. id say this is a classic as far as crappy movies go. its in my bottom 5.

andythevideoman Wow, just watched this movie, It wasn't as bad as I thought it would be. Heather (Iris McQuillan-Grace) is so strangely attractive however her hair style keeps changing (maybe I was watching her to much) for me she was the star would love to see her again in the future. Chris (Dan Gordon) was very entertaining as well. The film is basically meteor hits and an alien is on the loose (like with the Deadly Spawn) killing people who have to fight to survive. The effects are bad but I've seen worst (really). Everyone has to start somewhere as with Peter Jackson who's first film BAD TASTE took a long time to complete with no budget, and look at him now directing LORD OF THE RINGS. The future looks bright for this film company and I wish you all the best for the future.
