Curse of the Komodo (2004)

A story about the dangers of science, government coverups, random skinny dipping, and a big fucking Komodo dragon.

Listen in as me and my guest, Joe, consider the finer points of gratuitous skinny dipping, huge Komodo scat, and infinite ammo.

Directed by Jim Wynorski AKA Harold Blueberry AKA Sam Pepperman AKA Salvadore Ross AKA Jay Andrews (House on Hooter Hill, The Witches of Breastwick, The Hills Have Thighs), and written by Steve Latshaw (Planet Raptor, Megaconda, Invisible Dad), the Video Vacuum called the overall film "watchable, but inessential," while Dr. Gore's Movie Reviews said "the action scenes are tedious." Oy... What kinda movie did I pick?

It tells the story of a band of thieves who find themselves stranded on a secret island populated by a small band of top secret researchers and one big ass Komodo dragon. As they join the scientists in a fight for survival, they find themselves battling Komodo-saliva-induced zombies and the US military. It's... definitely something.

The film is currently available on IMDb TV, Tubi, and for rent or purchase on Amazon Prime Video.
