Plot: When a diverse group of strangers find themselves trapped in an isolated tavern, they must band together in a battle for survival against a family of flesh-hungry creatures that lay siege. 'Feast' is the winning film from the hit series 'Project Greenlight,' created by Matt Damon, Ben Affleck and Chris Moore.

Review: Project Greenlight was one of my favorite shows when it was on. Not because it was a great show, but because I like seeing movies being made and since I work on some independent films myself, it gives me better ideas how to do things. I saw the first 2 Project Greenlight films, Stolen Summer & The Battle of Shaker Heights, and they weren’t horrible, but they weren’t good either. Although I really wanted to see this movie, I was a little bit worried.

I can safely say there is nothing to worry about with this movie, it was great! I love horror films and the more gore the better. This movie is full of so much gore that it becomes ridiculous at times, but it works. This is a total horror fans dream come true. There is no plot, no character development, just craziness and gore. It was the most fun I have had with a movie in a long time. The story is borderline silly, but cool too. No character is safe in this movie, so you never know who is gong to bite it next. My favorite part about this movie is the fact that there is no explanation of what is going on. These creatures just show up to eat, kill, and have sex with everything, just because. No silly invasion or nuclear storyline to explain, you just accept it and enjoy. I really hope to see Director John Gulager do some other films, I think he has a good eye for filmmaking.
