As a horror movie it's anything but scary (other than some of the acting and posturing). As an adventure movie it's anti climatic. As a spoof it just isn't funny enough. As a cult film it just lacks conviction.I was watching it for free and I admit it was good enough to finish but the commercials interrupting it were considerably better which only confirmed how badly it was done. On the other hand the fact that the computer graphics seemed to be intentionally bad it could indicate it's homage to pioneer science fiction horror. I have to agree with another reviewer and state I quite simply don't know what it was other than bad. Students of entertainment and film making are likely to find it uninteresting the project seems to have only survived due to a few names attached to it.There is a lot of cheesy bad acting, with stereotype characters ripping off the styles and looks of other actors or actresses. At one point even the main character seemed to comment on the pointlessness of the scene. Some of the acting was true to the trade surrounded by others that seemed to scream "look, I'm on TV!" There was no quality continuity other than the headline entertainer's scenes were done fairly well while scenes without them seemed to just drop off the quality scale into oblivion. If you watch or buy it just because your favorite actor or actress is in it be assured they handled their scenes with dignity which they may have lost seeing the finished product.Anyone looking for a well done movie will be disappointed but anyone in love with bad horror, low budget spoofs, or reality T.V. (hey look I'm on camera!) will probably be satisfied for bargain prices.

Carmen Electra holds a concert on a remote tropical island that's located in the middle of the Bermuda Triangle. Carmen gets abducted by a giant monster insect. A motley group of kids bravely venture into the dangerous jungle to rescue Carmen. A camera crew tags along to film their adventure for a reality TV show. Director Jack Perez, who also co-wrote the cheerfully absurd'n'inane tongue-in-cheek cornball script with Adam Glass, maintains a constant steady pace and deftly creates an infectiously goofy mock-serious tone that pays affectionate homage to lovably ludicrous cheap'n'cheesy 50's sci-fi/horror creature features. The appealingly sincere acting from an eager and attractive cast rates as a major plus, with especially winning turns by Daniel Letterle as the sullen Josh, Mary Elizabeth Winstead as gutsy brunette hottie Maddy, Casey Beddow as the nerdy Andy, Chelan Simmons as feisty blonde babe Jen, C. Ernst Harth as bullish bodyguard Eightball, and Chris Harrison as hatefully cowardly wannabe macho jerk Chase. Adam West hams it up with tremendous lip-smacking relish as wacky mad scientist Dr. Harryhausen and Carmen portrays her own splendidly sweet'n'sexy self with charm to spare. Backstreet Boy Nick Carter pops up at the very end so he can save the day in the nick of time. David Bowes' funky herky-jerky stop-motion animation and the obvious tacky miniatures are both hilariously hokey. Todd Elyzen's polished cinematography makes artful use of fades and dissolves. Michael Richard Plowman's rousing score likewise hits the spot. Best of all, there's a sense of pure good-natured silly fun evident throughout that's both endearing and entertaining in equal measure. A delightfully dippy hoot.

No come on, this is a joke ... of course !I've loved that movie not only because it's awful but because even the actors are wondering why they are there...An example ? A flying ant which kidnaps Carmen Electra to entertain the slaves... and do you know how she does that... she sings... come on this is just great... Would you kidnap her just to make sure she'll sing to entertain you... yes I'm no specialist in Carmen Electra but I doubt her talents (both of them) include singing.You want to enjoy this movie? A pack of beers, a couple of good friends... you'll love it !

Expectations for this movie were low. Carmen Electra, bad stop motion animated monsters, juvenile story. Still, even going into it with low expectations, this movie was worse than I could have imagined. Take the very worst episode of "Land of the Lost" that you ever saw. Make the effects worse (yes, worse than Grumpy the Dinosaur). Now put Carmen Electra into it. There you go, that's Monster Island. There are cave men, giant insects and a sleestack. Actually, I think the sleestack is supposed to be a Pirahna-Man, but it looked like a sleestack to me. I used to like "Land of the Lost" when I was 5 years old, but I have a feeling that even 5 year olds would find this movie insulting.
