Chicken Park (1996)

Pretty good movie overall. First half was nothing special but it got better as it went along.

This film is so real. It treats its characters with so much care and sensitivity.

True to its essence, the characters remain on the same line and manage to entertain the viewer, each highlighting their own distinctive qualities or touches.

All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.

A low low low brow spoof of everything with a Jurassic Park setting with chickens instead of dinosaurs, this is a movie to watch with a bunch of friends and loved ones who don't mind laughing at jokes so bad under normal circumstances you kill the person who told them to you ( Beer would also help). The key to enjoying the film is to look at the title and the premise and realize that it doesn't get any better than that. If the title and premise don't make you snicker than avoid the movie, it wasn't meant for you, if you do snicker or smile as you say "oh come on" then you at least understand the humor and you may find it funny in a so bad its good sort of way. Personally I like the film and its rude, crude, "we have no morals or scruples" way of dishing out laughs.

Back In The Day, before i had the internet, we would often have conversations about what the worst film of all time was. One of the kids said that he had seen a send-up of Jurassic Park named Chicken Park. This kid was a notoriously bad liar so we just ignored him. As if a film like this would be made. I mean honestly.Fast Forward to last week. After crusing around this site for a while, I remembered the Chicken Park story. So I typed it in and low and behold here it is. With all the information about it too. I decided to hunt this film down and give it a watch. The video rental stores never heard of it, for good reason. Then in a bargin bin box at Kmart, there it was for 2 bucks.So why do i feel ripped off? ARGH! This film is the pit of all that is wrong with the nature of human beings. Why take a perfectly good film and decide instead of really cool dinosaurs , we replace them with god damn chickens?And the "In" jokes are pitiful. Dr. Eggs? COME ON!!!!This film is so bad that it makes Glitter look like The Godfather. Yuck, please don't watch this film. Let it remain a horrible joke to you. I think I'll go throw up.

A moron goes to an island to find a chicken he lost, but finds himself in a park where some insane scientist grows dangerous giant "prehistoric" (?) chickens; the chickens seem to have strange sexual behavior. Will the mad scientist and his freak-show crew help the man in his endeavor?WHO CARES!This "thing" is painful to sit through. Bad spoof comedies are not something that come out once in a lifetime, but whoever thought this one up should be sentenced to watch it repeatedly, Clockwork Orange-style, as a punishment. An Indian coming out of a giant egg (?) saying "is this Dances with Wolves hoo-hoo-hoo" (or something to that effect), then running away? A girl coming out of nowhere in the middle of the jungle and seducing a postal worker? A giant gay chicken trying to sexually molest the protagonist? These are the kind of jokes shown through the movie, and I'm pretty confident that they would make even one on nitrous oxide stop laughing. What's disconcerting is the fact that it's impossible to understand for whom exactly the film was made: the terrible, terrible juvenile (not to mention moronic) humor seems to be made for not-so-bright young kids, but then the tasteless sexual references and the gratuitous nudity exclude that possibility.The acting is ridiculously bad. Jerry Calà, the protagonist, gives one of the worst acting performances I've ever seen: if something happens, whatever that is, he tries (unsuccessfully) to look surprised. Demetra Hampton and the rest of the cast are equal, or worse. The special effects are sub-video game level, the music and the cinematography are all abysmal.Do not, under any circumstances, watch this movie. You'll be sorry if you do.1/10

This movie isn't bad. It's beyond bad. It is indescribable.Living in Australia, which seems to be about the only place a copy of this is available, i borrowed a copy as a laugh. What did i think???I can't really say, because it was impossible to watch.I Tried 6 times (yes, really 6) to watch the movie from start to finish. The furthest i got was about 20 minutes with it on in the background, and that was still too much. I managed to watch it all in segments of about 5 minutes at a time (i had to keep myself sane) but that was still WAY too much of this crap.If you read any of my other reviews, you will see that i watch bad movies for fun, and i have an extremely tough stomach for them. I can sit through almost anything. This movie was the first movie which ever defeated me, and the only other two were 'santa with muscles' starring hulk hogan, and an unofficial baywatch movie made in somebody's backyard (its not even on the imdb). But i managed about 40 minutes of them. This movie has NOTHING going for it at all.I challenge you to sit through it.
