AJ Allen Mongolian Death Worm, I believe was fair movie, however, there was several minor errors, in the movie itself. First of the minor errors ( i.e plot over-sites ) was that though-out the entire movie there was no actual Mongolian, of Mongolian Cyrillic script ( i.e. Cyrillic writing ). I also noticed, that there was some Chinese script, on the crates, which, somewhat made since. The police vehicle for example( literally had the word POLICE written on the vehicles doors ( in other words the word Police should have looked like this here: Цагдаагийн ( Mongolian ), or Полиция, or Mолиция ( Russian ) . The issue in regards to the 9mm, and the revolver, I also notices, in regards to replace, for which, I tend to agree with the main post review, at present. There was not that many ger's ( i.e. yurt's, depending on which way one views the concept of the Mongolian portal homes ), mostly standard army tents. A major note, and that is in regards to the constable ( i.e. the police officer. His shoulder boards had the American army rank of captain instead of Mongolian, or Russian rank. That in my opinion, is a complete plot over-site, there. Other then that the movie was quite entertaining, however, it would have been a little bit more believable if some of the actual Mongolian character names ( i.e. actor names ), would have had some actual Mongolian names, too, as well, along with some actual Mongolian speech, with a translator for the principal cast. I believe the executive producers, directors, and the script writers, should have done more research, into the making of this film, personally. Other then those few minor over-sites, the movie is strictly speaking, good for entertainment only.
Deliberate_Stranger There were times when I got super excited about any new upcoming creature feature. Then I discovered Syfy channel productions and my excitement went down a bit. Years later I discovered Asylum and lost pretty much all hope for a good monster movies with old school special effects. I used to the fact that Syfy can't do any good movie, it would be just against their rules and then I bought 'Mongolian Death Worms'. I know, title says it all but I couldn't resist. I used to read a lot legends about the cryptozoological creatures known as 'Mongolian Death Worms' and thought once - hey, maybe Syfy Channel will make the movie about them. And they Did! What's more surprising, this movie is actually not that bad. I mean - obviously, It's still Syfy channel with all It's glory - cgi creatures, one good actor surrounded by a bunch of amateurs, moronic script, cliché storyline etc but It's watchable. CGI is actually very good(for syfy features), worms sometimes look like they would be actual puppets not cgi so the job is well done here. Acting is shitty as usual with an exception of Sean Patrick Flanery who did a good job with what he was given. His character is not interesting at all but his acting is good, makes him easier to watch and hear. Unfortunately he has no one to work with. Victoria Pratt might be considered 'hot' by some people(not me) but her acting is bad and when you combine it with usual doctor/scientist character she can get highly annoying. I was thrilled to see Andrew Stevens since he's credited to be in the movie but sadly his part lasts for like 30 seconds. I wonder why Stevens couldn't take on one of the lead characters. He was a producer, his company co-founded this movie and being legendary actor he could do a good job for a movie by acting in it. There is no gore whatsoever, whole film is kids friendly but It's still OK to watch, even with a Texas trying to be Mongolia, even with George Cheung trying to be Mongolian sheriff(driving American pick-up with a 'police' plate written on it) and stuff. I won't watch it again and It's not a good movie for sure but It's not that bad either. Give it a try once, if you feel you want to.
Neil Welch What do I love? I love the title.I love curvy Victoria Pratt in tight tank tops.I love the fact that the Mongolian location isn't even approximately like Mongolia.I love the worms - they are a cut above the usual SyFy monsters, and are not only quite well realised, they are also nicely integrated into the background plates for the most part.That's about it though. The movie owes a big debt to Tremors (and a smaller one to the Alien films in terms of design of the worms), but crucially forgets that Tremors was an entertaining movie, mixing thrills, good dialogue and fun characterisation.
BakuryuuTyranno Was I imagining it or was this movie somewhat devoid of the usual pacing?Okay, there's a guy searching for treasure while two doctors are trying to reach civilisation and these people are kidnapped by the local crime lord and meanwhile some manner of drill-using company is having difficulty because all their workers keep slacking or getting eaten.I'm confused. Very confused. I just wanted a monster movie. Was I that exhausted it all seemed complicated or was it really moving at speed comparable to erosion?Stephen Monroe, director of the best Syfy-commissioned movie, Wyvern, meanwhile provides a film with characters more charismatic than your average Syfy-commissioned movie. Unfortunately the monsters are lame. Their victims are usually distracted by something else and those aware can easily defeat them with firearms.
