Warning: Spoilers
Ben (Fabio Cedrone) works for the Wildlife and Game commission of Crawford Co. famous for bird watching. He carries a gun, rarely used. He carries a picture of a young woman we can only assume he has lost and was either his wife or daughter (Julie Romanuik). We don't know the circumstances until the very end. While investigating a possible poacher, dressed in deer brown showing a fur liner, Ben discovers dead people, a truck, and a copier...one that copies him and his glow-in-the-dark DNA...almost. The copies growl and snarl. They have sloped heads and look like Ben,without a good dental plan. They want to kill, don't shoot guns but can drive a vehicle.

A lot of night fighting and shooting in the dark. The mercenary aspect was confusing as to why Ben didn't just tell him unless he has an iron plate in his jaw. I was also astonished that the US government built a machine in 1953 that still works. There is some aspect of symbolism as Ben fights an endless stream of himself, but didn't add to the film. Ben looked one step above Kevin James, mall cop. In fact if Kevin James had played the role, the few lines of comedy Ben spoke while tortured might have been funny. The character was written too melancholy for the film.

Filmed in Ontario/ With Crawford county filling up with bird watchers every year (and later with hunters) the idea that a truck could stay hidden in the woods for 40 years was almost as unbelievable as the copier which not only replicate Ben, but his clothes and possessions he has on him...except for the teeth.

Guide: F-word. Implied sex. No nudity.

Carbon Crappy
pnchristensen26 December 2016
I understand why there are no reviews for this film. Nobody bothered watching to the end. I have suffered through it, so now you don't have to. The premise was interesting enough, but the story (what little there was of it) made no sense. It was full of plot holes big enough to drive a truck through. The acting was woeful. The ending (which I only made it to because I wanted to see how this train wreck ended) was beyond clichéd to the point of being lame. I tried to find something redeeming about this film to add, but there is nothing. For a more interesting nights entertainment, watch paint dry. Trust me it is the better option.

Terrible Movie
mikeswanson-5743815 July 2022
This movie doesn't even deserve the words of a review. What can I say, the acting is terrible, the effects are terrible, the story is terrible. What a disaster. There's not much more I can say.
