I wanted to turn it off from the start but stopped myself from doing so because I wanted to see what happened. I wanted to know what they were. From the title I just assumed they were zombies or something, but I was wrong. The story line is the same story that we have been seeing and hearing for years. I sit here all of the time wondering when they are going to come up with new ideas. They keep making the same boring stuff over and over and over again. *yawn* Anyway, the acting was so bad that I wonder if they even know how off key and bad they actually sound when they are saying their lines. Honestly, I don't know what was worse, the boring over used story line, the bad acting or the biker dude's ugly fake hair. Oh well, if you want a good movie, this isn't it. If you want to waste some time, this is the movie for you. Bad, just bad.

I will start by saying, this is probably the worst movie I've seen in ReBox for awhile. Normally when I review movies, I expect to find trash like this from the local video rental store. However, this is not the case. This steaming pile of filth uses an overdose of profanity to show that the characters are quite hostile with each other – I'm actually surprised that the team of friends that are out road tripping can even stand to be around each other the entire way to wherever their destination is. I was impressed by the fact the entirety of the movie has them at each other's throats with insults, not being able to cooperate and otherwise having mixed opinions of how to handle the situation when their lives depend on cooperation to get out alive. So what do they decide to do once they do stop at a local rest stop? Guns come out with a loitering bike group that otherwise has a stash of drugs on the line. They've set themselves up for trouble when they are running low on gas and must pull into an otherwise desolate and abandoned ghost town. Cannibals live in this town and they are suddenly picked off one by one; but not before figuring out where their friend from earlier disappeared to. Flash forward to the biker gang and we get to see some of them picked off by the cannibals also. The cannibals do have some strange ways of living – potato sacks over their head; but they otherwise come off as the typical backwater cannibals that are less than intelligent. The group of friends, as mention, get picked off one by one until only one is left and she is picked up by a random stranger and the movie ends.The acting is bad; scenes tend to take longer than they should or are included when they could have been omitted. The overall flow of the movie is also pretty clunky; too fast in some areas, not enough action in others, and the scenes which are good are overshadowed by the scenes which seem to take forever. I'm pretty certain one of the scenes with them mulling and debating their current situation; took about ten minutes; only it was closeups of their faces in the car while doing so.I do no recommend this movie and I recommend you stay far away.Originally posted to Orion Age (http://www.orionphysics.com/?p=9705).

As said many times before, this is not coming from anybody who takes pleasure in hating a movie. In fact, quite the opposite, this is coming from somebody who tries to see good in anything that's bad regardless of how strong any negative feelings are. Eaters is one of few movies in some time where there is nothing to say redeeming about it.It is hard to say where Eaters failed most heavily, but the acting is a definite contender here. Atrocious isn't describing it enough, with the yellow T-shirt guy and the biker leader agreed tied for the worst performances, the former looking like he both didn't want to be there and didn't have a clue as to what he was doing and the latter is more irritating than menacing. Everybody looks disengaged and stumble constantly through their lines, giving the already crass and awkwardly written dialogue- that is enough to make even a toddler feel dumb- even less fluidity than it already suffered from. The cardboard, stereotypical characters were not worth giving a toss about, they're all annoying and the bikers have no sense of presence and instead behave like idiots. The missing girl isn't on screen anywhere near long enough to make one care properly about the situation the characters are on or the basic story.The story is another massive failing, there is nothing scary, suspenseful or tense about it, structurally it's choppy, a lot of scenes are so mind-numbingly stupid and pointless it was insulting and it just drags on and on with scenes stretched to interminability. There is nothing competent about the direction, which is literally all at sea, nor about the filming. The opening is alright, but everything else visually is unfocused to a dizzying degree, was starting to wonder whether the cameraman was drunk or something. Scenery is basic and drably lit, and the sound is so flat that hearing what was being said was difficult and sometimes like somebody trying unsuccessfully to tune a radio.Overall, horrendously bad with nothing good to say in its favour. As someone who tries to be fair when viewing films/movies/shows Eaters really has to be one of the worst movies seen in quite a long time. 0/10 Bethany Cox

Let me start by saying my time in "the office" is more interesting than this movie. For the slower readers I'm talking about my poop. I would rather watch a turtle sit in one spot for 10 hours, because that's how slow the fights are in this movie. I literally went to McDonald's and got myself a yummy milk shake before the biker dude punched the very poor actor. Wait, they're all bad at acting. I mean the guy that got shot twice in the stomach and died in front of his fiancée. What's up with that fiancée taking 20 minutes to actually help her future dead husband. She had the gun, could have shot the bikers, yet she runs out and gets shot first because she's a very challenged person. I'll admit though, that acting from her fiancée when he was dead was phenomenal. He deserves an Oscar for playing dead because that was the best acting during the entire film. I'll be honest though. I fell asleep 3 times. My girlfriend tried to wake me each time to continue watching the movie, and I politely nudged her away for waking me back into this nightmare of a film. My eyes are still trying to figure out what the hell I just watched.In all honesty... Burn this disk if you find it at a yard sale. Save the next person from wasting a minute of their life on this crap.
