It sounds pretty straightforward, but there&#8217;s actually a lot more going on in this one than you would expect.<br>It&#8217;s low budget, and that&#8217;s obvious in some places, but they really did a lot and it&#8217;s surprisingly high quality. The lead actors are&#8230;adequate, but the supporting cast is pretty good, if a little cartoony at times.<br>The monster design I really liked, they&#8217;re not shy about showing it off, even if a lot of shots were closeup or out of focus. Creative shots to help hide the budget perhaps, but it still works.<br>Overall I was actually really surprised how much I liked it, especially the unexpected ending.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-primary-color has-text-color has-link-color has-x-large-font-size nfd-wb-animate nfd-wb-fade-in-bottom wp-elements-f17e7d6ee464cc5df03e391d34326633\"><strong>4 out of 5<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-primary-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-6ed4eadb780ce20944248338078dca98\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.imdb.com\/title\/tt5688868\/\">Primal Rage on IMDB<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Originally supposed to be part of a twofer about Bigfoot, I ended up not having time for two, so I went with this one.
