Fun Stuff

Trivia:
The "Bog Man" is heard speaking occasionally throughout the movie. A lot of what he says is nothing other than grunting, but several phrases are actually modern Irish Gaelic, specifically, "Uisce" (water) and "Saoirse" (freedom, usage is unrelated to the name of the female lead). more
Goofs:
Revealing mistakes: The "Bog Man" is seen to "make" his own shoes early on in the film, but later on he can clearly be seen wearing modern shoes with molded rubber soles. more
Quotes:
Mr. Hunter: [Zombie like critter bites Mr. Hunter's boot and pulls it off during struggle. He responds by cutting her hand off and she slides/falls down a slope into the swamp]
Mr. Hunter: Gimme me boot back you swamp snubber.
[Zombie throws the boot and motions for something back]
Mr. Hunter: [Mr. Hunter throws the hand back]
[Zombie catches the hand and waves thank you]

Review of a...mmm...how should we call it ?!, 16 June 2009
3/10
Author: ecstasy_neo from Romania

OK, to start with ,don't be baffled by Vinnie being in this movie cause the plot is so thin that u wouldn't even know is there.The acting is bellow par and besides this the actors look like they wanna get the hell outta there and take a break. How should i say it ?......if u survive the first minutes of the film ,which for a movie start are horrible, then u would waste 90 minutes of your life. This movie makes Far Cry look like an Oscar nominee , so no don't watch even if is free. The only guy who made me laugh is the one who plays the so called mummy who looks like acting for him is running , slashing , tearing everything apart and trying to look as dumb as ever. Too bad Vinnie is in the movie , i was expecting a lot more from both.
