Screature of the Lagoon, Military Experiment Gone Wild

Where are Joel and the 'bots when you need them? Hey, I'm not saying today's feature is a bad movie. I loved it! Then again, I loved "Track of the Moon Beast." Okay, some apparent errors dot this plot.  I stress the word "apparent." Dead characters appearing in the next scene. Main characters getting killed...and coming back, over and over again. This one is infinitely better than "She-Hulk" or "Thor." Today we look at a film by Jake C. Young, 2021's "Screature of the Lagoon." Look at this one as a working man's "Predator."

Matt Logan (Young)!  He's buff!  He's a mercenary who can kill with his thumbs and track down any human or monster. He also looks great in a poncho. Government types find him and enlist him on a top secret mission in Canada. A government experiment went wrong and it escaped.  Now the failed experiment is a creature that kills. Matt will be matched up with three tough commandos who will all be killed...but do not fret...they'll all come back...more than once. Hey, this worked for the space-babe in "Space Mutiny" (Billy Second)!  Okay, the four set off into the woods and the army man turned monster hunts them.  One by one the commandos will be shredded and killed. This is where continuity problems are our friends. They all keep coming back. 

Matt is tough.  Sure, he'll get killed, too...but in this film, no one stays dead...just like the space-babe in "Space Mutiny," or Victoria Principal in "Dallas."  Now its personal, and Matt has a trusted machete.  The monster and Matt seem to have a date with destiny.  Wait!  The government is not Matt's friend.  As if it's any of our friends. Matt will grunt a lot.  Matt will die a lot.  Matt will prevail a lot.  A battle for humanity's survival will occur right outside Montreal and you can bet that Justin Trudeau is on the side of the evil government conspirators and the monster.

Will Matt survive the monster and the government?  Is this Screature-thing a metaphor for the Trudeau's government war on freedom and the real peeps who live in Canada?  Will the Canadian Parliament invite the Screature to address them and give it a standing ovation?  See "Screature of the Lagoon" and be glad you are not watching "Jupiter Ascending" or "The Last Airbender."
