An American news crew, determined to capture this voracious monster and stop his demonic rampage, travel deep within the darkest reaches of Africa to hunt their prey. But Gustave, as the natives call him, is also on the hunt ó always on the move, always elusive, always hungry for human flesh. Heart-pounding fear is nonstop in this edge-of-your-seat nail-biter about the cunning killer who continues to blaze his blood-soaked trail of terror. (official distributor synopsis)

Not enough Gustav versus a geyser of embarrassment on Purcell's part. It has momentum, aggressive editing, passable CGI effects and lots of color filters. As far as the technical aspect is concerned, there is not much to find fault with. Something that cannot be said about the action or original ideas. These ingredients are desperately lacking here. However, as far as this specific subgenre is concerned, this is relatively successful. But still, expect no miracles.
