Chupacabra vs the Alamo (2013)Originally released as just ChupacabraA hilariously lost SyFy network b movie. Lots of blood and bad acting with ridiculous looking little monsters. Staring Erik Estrada and several recognizable BC based SySy network regulars like Aleks Paunovic who pretty much dies right away. Cliché arguments and hilariously stupid character developments. Erik Estrada is trying way too hard and yet he was not willing to ride a motorcycle. Estrada’s earlier career made him famous for riding motorcycles but every scene with him riding is either him parking a bike or a repeating set of scene of him terribly super imposed on random background as he wobbles pretending the bike is moving. It looks so ridiculous that it makes you think it was on purpose to be funny, but I promise you it was not. Every time it shows him on the bike I literally had to shout out “Come on just stop”. He does do one hilariously pointless bike stunt in the middle of the movie. This shows the green screening was all because they wanted the backgrounds to look less like BC and more like the Texas Mexico border where this is supposed to take place. Lets talk about the Chupacabra who are small gangly dingo looking things done in terrible cgi , so bad you feel they could have used make up on dog and just duplicated the shots to see more believable. Which honestly adds to the cheesy accidental humor of this film. They find a Chupacabra pretty much right away in the movie but its so non threatening that they shrug it off and move on. Some are even as small as Chihuahuas. We quickly learn there are tons of these critters and they eat as fast as the literal Critters did, so I guess they are a threat after all. The blood is the kind of SyFy low budget blood as its dead bodies covered in decent gore make up but not much action gore. When its active kill its the look away jump cuts and cgi, probably cause they had no time to clean and reshoot anything. One guy literally gets his dick bit off by a speed demon Chupacabra and no one sees it, no not for plot but because of budget. In that same scene a Chupacabra attacks a guy in the back ground and no one reacts .. because I’m sure it wasn’t in the script. Also in that SAME scene a guy is thrown over a football goal post by a monster but the creature does not react as if that’s what happened. HILARIOUS! Some people will cringe at this and so they should. I personally find it hilarious and rather fun. The SyFy network and Asylum sin of having “real actors” and the budget and cameras of a decent X files episode with only a few days to do it and zero communication between the cgi team and the film crew and editor. This should be seen in a group with a lot of junk food to throw at each other as you watch it. Remember the Alamo and never forget when Erik Estrada fought of a bunch of zombie taco bell dogs at it and called them Chupacabra. -- source link
