Tooth and Nail, a review by addicted2dvd

Tooth and Nail: After Dark HorrorFest Year: 2007 Length: 94min. Director: Mark Young Stars: Rachel Miner Rider Strong Robert Carradine Vinnie Jones Michael Madsen

Plot:
A small group of survivors in a post-apocalyptic world take refuge in an empty hospital with plans on rebuilding society. They rescue a young girl who is the victim of a brutal attack, but soon discover that they were followed by a savage band of cannibals known as Rovers. The Rovers begin to kill them one by one, and the trapped survivors must find a way to outwit their stalkers.

My Thoughts:
This is a movie I originally bought for my October Horror Marathon... but never got around to watching. These After Dark Horrorfest releases are a bit on the hit or miss side... but out of 15 releases that I own... I had a hard time sitting through only one of them. In the case of this movie. It isn't a bad movie... but it really could have been much better. The twist of the movie was really obvious. So obvious in fact that I had the twist figured out the moment I seen the character it involved. That alone brought my score of this movie down. This is the second After Dark Horrorfest release of this past year that has Rider Strong in it. If you recognize the name but just can't place who it is... he played Shawn (Corey's friend) on the '90s sitcom Boy Meets World.

A perfect introduction to the characters, especially Becker. This pilot shows that even though he acts like real ass, Becker has a good side to him when it comes to his profession.
