Incannerax What a waste of my time!!!

Actuakers One of my all time favorites.

Curapedi I cannot think of one single thing that I would change about this film. The acting is incomparable, the directing deft, and the writing poignantly brilliant.

Neive Bellamy Excellent and certainly provocative... If nothing else, the film is a real conversation starter.

Diane Ruth Stunning visual effects and scenes of intense adventure highlight Sheldon Wilson's Killer Mountain. An exciting saga of mountain climbing and brutal survival, this is horror film with strong characters and a magnificent story to tell. Among the stunning vistas of mighty mountains stand a group of individuals called upon to meet the greatest challenges any group of intrepid explorers may have ever faced. Their skills and character are truly put to the test, especially when it becomes quite clear that it is not the mountain alone they are confronting. Haunting scenes of an icy hell, veiled in mystery and a dark terror, will keep audiences spellbound in this sterling adventure. Fine performances from a terrific cast add to the cinematic quality and give us people we really care about as they struggle to conquer the unknown. The influence of Everest and Howard Hawks' original The Thing are clearly seen throughout and the director's reverence for these sources is well integrated in the experience.

Leofwine_draca Yeah, that this is a bad movie will surprise nobody. But at least it's the first film I've seen which has been set in Bhutan, although given the nature of the production the place is interchangeable with any oppressive Asian country.The story mixes mountaineering with monsters, to a somewhat muted effect. The problem with KILLER MOUNTAIN is that it has no sense of style, no real direction to give it spark or emphasis. It's supposed to be thrilling and scary, and yet it's neither; at no time do we feel for or empathise with the characters or care about their plight.It's also a low budget B-movie saddled with some truly lame CGI effects, including the return of the dreaded CGI helicopter. The story sees a rescue party set out to aid some missing mountaineers, but before long there are some nasty CGI creatures thrown into the mix. They're mostly shown in near-complete darkness, because the effects really are that bad. The producers can't even add a Lance Henriksen or John Rhys-Davies into the mix, so there's nothing here for anyone.

GL84 After being asked to participate in a rescue mission after a disastrous mountain-climbing incident, a man and his team find the area protected by a group of vicious creatures guarding a secret within the mountain and try to get away before falling victim to the ravenous beings.This one wasn't too bad and definitely has it's good parts. Among the better elements here is that the action scenes are really enjoyable with all the location scenes up high in the mountains, gives this one a rather sizable sense of action along the way. The opening attack of the camp is immensely fun with the attacks keeping the creatures hidden enough while rampaging through camp as well as they're ranks in a flurry of activity, a later scene of the disaster crash of the creatures taking out the helicopter crashing it against the side of the mountain in front of the attempted rescue-victims as well as the rather exciting descent down into the crevice all come off as really fun action scenes spread out across the mountain. Even more fun is the scenes inside the mountain with a great sequence during a driving snowstorm of the creatures attacking the camp and forcing the team underground where the stalking continues into a series of deep caves, plenty of big pits littered with rocky outcroppings and human skeletons which gives off quite a creepy tone here. Even better, the later scenes in the temple are quite fun as the hive featuring all the baby creature coming after the gang in some really creepy scenes giving this one some great action in the numerous escapes and chases throughout here. Likewise, there's some more to like here as the creatures here are pretty enjoyable creations in terms of looks with it's lizard-like body and alien head creating a distinctive look that are given enough storyline points to care about and are woven nicely into the story as there's some great attempts at explaining their connection to the mythology of the area. As well, the fact that there's a rather enjoyable pace keeps this one moving along rather well which is more than enough at keeping this one up over its few flaws. The flaws, though, all seem to come from the fact that this has too many subplots here, as there's the military intervention which is never given a purpose and put here almost as an afterthought that take kills away from the creature, the cancer scare and the trapped wife and eventual reconciliation that come off as complete clichés while the former is further guilty of also being a complete throwaway that all could've gone away and not messed the film up at all. This one also comes up short here in really selling the secret goal of the original mission since it's never really made clear why they needed to be as secretive as they are to get him on-board with their plans. Overall, though, it's pretty enjoyable.Rated Unrated/R: Graphic Violence and Adult Language.

Paul Andrews Killer Mountain starts as billionaire medical research businessman Walter Burton (Andrew Airlee) contacts leading climber Ward Donovan (Aaron Douglas) & says that an expedition to the highest unexplored mountain in the world in Bhutan have gone missing, there has been no contact with them for weeks & Burton ask's Ward to lead a rescue mission.

Flying to Bhutan which is in Nepal all of the locals have fled & only a small team will venture up the mountain lead by Ward & containing Burton's son Tyler (Paul Campbell) & sexy doctor Nina (Crystal Lowe). Once on the mountain the team face danger from all angles, the bitter cold, the treacherous terrain & huge mythical flesh eating creatures that supposedly guard the ancient lost city of Shambala that holds the key to eternal life...Directed by Sheldon Wilson this made for telly SyFy Channel creature feature isn't the worst offering the channel has ever served up but that's hardly any sort of recommendation on it's own, Killer Mountain is almost a decent film & certainly better than most SyFy Channel muck but I still didn't think it was particularly good. The one thing that Killer Mountain has going for it is that there's more going on than usual in these SyFy Channe flicks, there's the previous stranded expedition, the current one that gets trapped, the dangerous terrain, the monsters, the lost city, the Bhutan military show up & there's just a more going on than I expected. None of it is particularly enthralling, I mean it's still fairly predictable, shallow & has the usual sloppy storytelling but overall Killer Mountain is better than I expected without being brilliant. The character's are clichéd & dull but serve their purpose, the dialogue is forgettable & you won't care what happens to anyone but again their a notch above the usual SyFy Channel product. Killer Mountain is bland & forgettable it passes an hour & a half harmlessly enough I suppose, not bad if you know what to expect & have suitable expectations.Surprisingly the production values aren't too bad on Killer Mountain, the film has a cold dark feel which helps & while some of the mountain climbing scenes look a little tame & unexciting they add something overall. The CGI computer effects are also better than expected, sure no-one is going to be convinced by that CGI helicopter but the monsters are usually kept in shadow or seen in quick flashes which helps. There's no real gore here, there's a bit of blood splatter & a bitten hand but Killer Mountain lacks any memorable kills which is a pity.The IMDb says Killer Mountain had a budget of $2,000,000 which I find hard to believe, there's way it had a budget that high or if it did I can't see what it was spent on. The acting is alright, everyone seems to be taking it seriously.Killer Mountain is better than the usual SyFy Chanel creature feature but that isn't saying much on it's own, watch it if it's on telly & your desperate but otherwise don't bust a gut to see it.
