This was a good movie by Ted E. Kissel (Greencastle IN)  4 Stars
June 24, 2009
I dunno why everybody is saying this wasn't that great of a movie. I loved it, I thought the plot was good, loved the monster, and the actors in it were good. It was a hell of a lot more gory and better then "No Country For Old Men".

Decent fun overall by Papa Legba (Madison, WI)  3 Stars
October 29, 2006
This is a fairly amusing low-budget sci-fi flick with good-looking girls and a not-too-serious script. It's not scary by any means, and the sabretooth looks like a silly cartoon, but it works as a way to spend the evening laughing with a few friends

Like Plan 9, but with a sabertooth tiger instead of Tor Johnson. by Moose Master (New York, NY USA)  1 Stars
September 05, 2006
This movie is quite horrible. I would rather be sick than try to watch Vanessa Angel try to emote. Most of the plot is a by product of only slightly better horror movies. This is the case of "its so bad, its horrible." And I really mean its horrible. The plot is horrible, the acting sub-par, and the sabertooth would look better if I substituted my fat house cat. I really mean that. But, Sabertooth can be fun at times, like when they finally kill the sabertooth. You'll cheer, but only becasue the movie has ended.

Cheesy Horror Fun... by SereneNight (California, USA) 1 Stars
June 23, 2006
When a greedy scientist and his sexy henchwoman decide to create a genetically enhanced Sabretooth, it (of course), gets loose and wreaks havoc on a group of unsuspecting campers. The inevitable happens- campy carnage, and a struggle for survival between the good guys and the bad guys, with the usual high body count.
The Sabretooth tiger was super cheesy. Mostly computer generated. I do think the CGI artists took some liberties with the sabre. It wouldn't be well adapted for hunting man. It was an ambush predator which couldn't run long distances (just look at its hindlegs), and was meant to crouch in tall bushes and gut the prey from underneath or deliver a piercing blow and wait for death. It would be quite awkward to sabre a standing person because of the angle the cat would have to hold its head. Besides the teeth are actually quite brittle and not intended to suffer extensive side-to-side movement. Most of the attack in Sabretooth were like that of a bear or lion(hands/paws ripping throgh the door), dragging prey off into the bushes etc. Riddle me how it can do that with big brittle teeth? Its too bad the screenwriter took no opportunity to educate viewers about the animal rather than to just do the obvious and make it similar to just any other large fantasy beast.
1 star. Fun, friday night entertainment, but not rocket science or anywhere close. Much improved by Josh Holloway. Yum.

I was expecting more by K. Diep (Los Angeles, CA)  2 Stars
December 23, 2005
I was expecting a lot more from this sci-fi movie, but I guess that was wishful thinking. I found the movie to be below average filled with clice element and generic characters. Throughout the whole film, you probably see the Sabertooth for good 10 min in total (which is not much) and when he actually appear on sceen, he looks totally fake and totally offscale. I was wondering why the Sabertooth's body and teeth so clean, after he has kills tons of people. They could have definitely made the Sabertooth more scary. The acting was kind of cheesy too. The character's dialogs sound like hey're scripted and doesn't comes off unevenly. Also a lot of the logic in movie are unbelieveable. For example: (WARNING contain spoiler)
1) The Sabertooth bust a hole through a cabin and snatch one of his victem. Keep in mind that the store is still close, there's only a hole in the store in which victem was obviously drag outside by the Sabertooth. Yet the next day, his body was found inside the cabin yet the door was still close. I guess that Sabertooth must somehow leap through the whole in the center of the door, with a body in his mouth.
2). Josh Holloway's (Trent) been cut by the sabertooth, been shot in the arm by a gun, his camper friends all been kill (his fault) and he's been through a terrifying surreal situation, yet he has time to make out by the end because he's the "hero" of the flick. Making out is the last thing on my mind. Kind of cheesy.
3). There are 3 Jr. camper that sign up or were sign up by their parents so they can explore the outdoors and learn leadership skill. Yet these jr camper were kill by the end of the movie, but the movie end happily ever after with the two Head camper heading off into the sunset. Wouldn't the parents of these kids want an explaination on why theirs kids die and if they're going to believe that a Sabertooth Tiger ate them?
I was hoping the ending would be better or something unexpected but it has a typical ending. I would definitely recommend Brotherhood of the Wolf as a better altrenative.
