Rage - Furia primitivaの配信情報・視聴方法・感想

**_Rabid Neanderthals on the loose at a Florida campus_**

A professor at a university in Miami (Bo Svenson) is developing a serum that restores dead brain cells using a baboon for testing. When a student is inadvertently bitten, an infection spreads through the campus during a Halloween celebration. Horror thrills ensue.

"Primal Rage" (1988) takes the setting of “Pieces” (1982) and mixes in elements of the Kolchak episode “Primal Scream” (1975) and “Altered States” (1980). It’s basically a reimagining of “Monster on the Campus” (1958) for the ’80s.

Patrick Lowe makes for a quality male protagonist while Mitch Watson is effective as the edgy student-journalist, who’s reminiscent of John Lennon. The flick’s worth watching just for winsome Cheryl Arutt (Lauren). Sarah Buxton is also worth noting as Debbie. Meanwhile towering Doug Sloan stands out as the violent bastage on campus, Lovejoy.

The first act works quite well, but the last act devolves into shallow action thrills with a garnishment of horror. Still, the no-name 80’s rock/metal soundtrack is kinetic and I always wondered what would happen if someone was under the bleachers when they rolled ’em back.

The film runs 1 hour, 31 minutes, and was shot in Miami, particularly Florida International University.

GRADE: B-
