The folks over at Fangoria managed to get their hands on some exclusive new clips and photos from writer/director Chris Wojcik’s action/horror flick “Rise of the Animals”, for which I am eternally grateful. Keep in mind, however, that all of this misplaced excitement is coming from someone with exceptionally questionable taste in cinema. For starters, I’ve seen “Birdemic”, “Sharktopus”, and “Skinned Deep” more times than I’m comfortable admitting in public. I also own every single movie Steven Seagal has ever made. Need more proof? Here’s the smoking gun: I have, in my possession, a copy of “Furry Vengeance” on Blu-ray that I bought at a supermarket. Jesus Christ, I’m pathetic. Anyway, “Rise of the Animals”, as you may have gleaned from the title, is an “animals run amok” flick as filtered through the goofiness of “Birdemic” and “Sharktopus”, two movies I obviously hold in high regard.
