DNA

“The Jungle is Alive!”

Certified Crap. CrapScore 58, rated by 1 admin.

Higher CrapScores mean more entertainingly bad. How we score movies.

Why it’s crap
A genetic experiment creates a jungle monster, leaving Mark Dacascos to balance scientific concern with action-hero duties. The familiar Predator-shaped pursuit and rough creature work have bargain-rental appeal, but the scientist casting requires its own suspension of disbelief.
