Ameriatch One of the best films i have seen

CrawlerChunky In truth, there is barely enough story here to make a film.

Gary The movie's not perfect, but it sticks the landing of its message. It was engaging - thrilling at times - and I personally thought it was a great time.

birdrehabilitation Just given the title, I was never expecting this movie to be anything good, but godd*amn was it hard to sit through. Number one, and above all, the acting was horrendous. It tops Billy Owens in terms of badness. Just the fact that the only reaction to seeing a killer rabbit the size of a buffalo is mild shock. Not to mention that they thought they could bury RABBITS with dynamite, when in fact, the guy who went to the top of the mountain dropped a rock and it fell for six seconds -- meaning these things can dig a hole deeper than the height of the Sears Tower. So what in the hell would make them think that collapsing rabbit burrows would be effective in any way? I don't expect much of a horror movie, but I expect a bit of common sense exhibited by the bad, bad actors by which it was played. Oh, and the ending was beautiful. An electrified railroad. You know, because that would stop something that can easily clear it. Yet, somehow, it did, because even the creators of this film got sick of it at a point. There's not enough beer in the world.

bkoganbing The one thing I really liked about Night Of The Lepus was the depiction of that vast army of supersized rabbits. Otherwise a whole lot of familiar players look like they're in some kind of discomfort doing this science fiction epic.Rabbits do two things very well, they multiply and they eat. The famous introduction of them to Australia is used as an example when they were imported to Australia and become ravaging the food supply.The same thing is happening in the Southwest USA. One of those effected is rancher Rory Calhoun. He sends for scientific type help and he gets Professor Stuart Whitman and wife Janet Leigh who bring their little daughter with them.Whitman doesn't play this like Dr. Frankenstein, but he's decided on some radical experimentation with hormones. Does it ever grow wrong with rabbits growing to be the size of SUVs.This was produced by A.C. Lyles of the geezer westerns of the Sixties. I wish he had stuck to those.

LeonLouisRicci Infamous "Bad Movie" that Attracts Folks Because of its Premise. Giant, Mutated, Killer Rabbits. So They Go Into This Thing with a High Giggle Factor and it Does Prompt Laughter, At Least At First. But Honestly, After the Movie Starts Unreeling it's Not a Laughing Matter. So the Snickering Just Might be That of the Nervous Type.The Opening Scenes, a Docu-Style Real Life Plague in Australia Where Hundreds and Thousands of Rabbits are Shown (this is real footage) being Stomped, Shot, Clubbed, and Trooped to Their Death with Living Creatures Being Netted, Slaughtered and Brutally Killed. That's Just the Beginning. In Short Order there is the Shooting of a Horse, Closeups of Bunnies with Bloody Faces, Flashing Their Teeth and Growling. Then there are Numerous Scenes of the Rabbits Feasting on Bodies and More Close Ups, This Time of Mutilated Humans with Dismembered Limbs and Buckets of Blood Flowing All Over the Place. There's More to Come, Like Electrocutions, and Gunplay with Squibs Splattering and Other Very Gory and Violent Scenes. If You Think this is All Campy Fun, Think Again. This is Horrifying a Lot of the Time. Sure, the Slow Motion Gets Old and Less Effective Every Time it's Used and it's Used Quite Often.The Rabbits Waver from Very Scary (the close ups) to Not So Scary (those migration slow motion scenes). The Drive In Scene is Probably the Silliest in the Movie and Dosen't Contain Any Rabbits. There is Some Dialog that is Unintentionally Funny. But, If this Movie is Such a Hoot, Show it to a Group of Tween Girls (it is Rated PG) and Witness the Reaction. Guaranteed, Few of Them will be Laughing and They Might Attack You. Just Not in Slow Motion.Note…Just kidding, Sam Peckinpah did not Direct this Movie.

Raven Cain Believe it or not, this isn't a terrible movie. Obviously it's a silly premise and, as far as monster movies go it will never rank up there with Them! or Nightbreed, but it's actually quite well done from a filmmaker perspective.I really wanted to write a proper review, but I'll leave that to the ages and simply give my personal shout out to the DP on this one. If you like cheesy monster flicks, see it, but if you want to learn something about how to deal with a terrible monster movie while still loving the craft, then study Ted Voigtlander's work.In short, I like this movie. It's cheesy and stupid in its premise, but the direction and photography more than make up for the horrific source material. I, for one, am glad this film exists.
