For the reasons most of us posted here. Not a bad watch. Great scenery and a bit of Military Sci Fy content. Monsters were good. Needed more gore, but we all know how expensive that gets.
A mix of action movie and creature feature, Death Valley breaks no new ground, and that's why it's good fun to watch. I want to hear dialogue such as "Do you know how to use that??" "INCOMING!!" and "Any more ideas, cowboy?" I expect there to be a wise-cracking, backward hat-wearing wingman. And I'd be disappointed if there wasn't a guy "doing one last job," with a baby on the way. As writer, director, editor, producer AND monster, Matthew Ninaber wears a lot of hats (one or two too many?), and some of the cast double up as crew - or vice versa - but that's excuseable as it was made during covid on a low budget. The locations were suitably claustraphobic, the creature was impressive and overall it leaves me with high hopes for this teams next movie project!
B-movie action flick with competent directing and budget, and a mediocre plot.
thumbs up
Strong story, great action, and a lot of surprises.
