There's a bunker from the past that Sinclair's found, a kind of Russian mutant store or beast compound, they're quite keen to open up, from your head down to your gut, make their residence above, not underground. The army has a post that's close at hand, Sinclair escapes and tells the man who's in command, about the place where evil thrives, you could say it's like a hive, but there's resistance to her claims and her demands. Reminiscent of several films on a similar theme you will have encountered before but nothing like as good. Some of the special effects are decent enough but the performances are a bit ordinary and the end can't come soon enough.

If you're a fan of good old-fashioned splatter horror, there's a reasonable amount of that in this movie. Also, you know how so very often the principal protagonist discovers the monsters, and then tries to persuade other people that the monsters exist, and those other people go all Obviously-Doomed-Disbelieving-Villagers on them? That doesn't happen in The Lair, so I'll give it a point for that. Apart from that, though, The Lair is only inventive when things happen that definitely could not actually happen. And the dialogue's SO corny. And the special effects, for most stuff except for the abovementioned splatter, are often unconvincing. And as usual you're in for a wild ride whenever someone mentions DNA in a horror or sci-fi movie. I'm not sorry I watched it, but my time could have been much better spent.

Neil Marshall is well known for his grip on Genre films and he continue to prove it with his latest addition on the film THE LAIR. A non stop action ride with lot of action and creature. Cinematography is great, All the actors have played their part extremely well and you can see the hard work. Usually such a genre is hard to come by and is the perfect release for Halloween. Russian experiment leaving behind the monster is fun to watch all through out. Some Ariel shots of plane coming down looks amazing. Half Alien.....Half Humans..... & Hungry...Finally unlocked and unleashed....go watch it...

Basic premise is something we've seen countless times. Secret military base with monsters. Bunch of soldiers fighting for their lives. Same old, same old. Nothing really new here. Pretty much by the numbers. The special effects are just as average as everything else. Nothing too special. Not terrible, just your usual rubber suits and squibs. The acting is... alright. The characters are all very one note. Everyone has their role, the muscle, the ass, the doc, the heart, etc... again, all as expected. The acting is serviceable. The writing... meh. Tons of stupid decisions being made. Lots of nonsensical stuff and contradictions. The monsters are both nigh invulnerable and able to be knocked out by a punch. They can take countless rounds from high powered rifles, but a hammer to the head takes them out. There's also a lot of magically teleporting moments. Like when a monster is there to grab someone when they weren't there a second ago. Or how there's a ton of them everywhere, then suddenly the place is empty, then it's full again when they need more action. Just very badly directed. If you turn your brain off, it makes an adequate action flick to waste time with. But not really worth bothering with if you're looking for something beyond made for TV trash.
