In the long and varied history of irresponsible filmmaking, this has to count near the top - needless to say I loved every minute!

I recently watched ROAR for the first time. Boy oh boy this film got to me!!! Not because of the story (it's got none beyond a near nonsensical plot), but you instantly realize what you see is real, and all the "actors" (though only Tippi Hedren and Kyalo Mativo qualify as such) are in danger of being eviscerated alive by giant and not exactly predictable cats in every scene.This film may try to tell your head it's a comedy, but it won't fool your natural instincts: I was breaking out in cold sweats after a mere ten minutes. Thankfully, nobody died during the making of the film (at least that we know of, since no remains of actors or stuntmen were found and none were reported missing) but after watching it I still felt as if I had accidentally watched some weird sort of snuff movie.In the long and varied history of irresponsible filmmaking and dangerous vanity projects, this has to count near the top. It's some crazy shîte lemme tell you! But once you get over the fact that everyone you see is in constant mortal danger, it's also a ton of twisted fun. Truly a one of a kind movie. I highly recommend it (just don't forget to pick up your jaw from the floor afterwards ;-)

A Crazy movie made by insane people

A bunch of family members are casted as actors and thrown to untrained Tigers, Lions and other predators. The camera captures whatever action it can get. Dangerously made crazy film that was unnecessary. 11 years in the making and made life hell for everyone involved. I'm glad that Animal rights activists won't allow any other crazy filmmaker to attempt this again.
