The people of our society need to be careful about believing what we hear from television. The biggest problem with this movie is that America was so gullible as to believe that such a serial killer exists. Think about it for a couple of minutes. How come we have all heard of "Jack the Ripper" who claimed less than 20 victims, but not of this "Gustavus", claiming more than 300? Think a little bit harder. Yes, the trailer to this movie is misleading, but they never outright said that it was a human killer, only explained it in such a way that we might come to that understanding. This movie's "Twist" if you might call it that, was probably the worst since M. Night Shyamalan's- The Village, but any means of a large income for writers, directors, actors, etc. will always be taken in Hollywood. Always be suspicious. Think about all the swamp and water scenes of this movie from the preview. The goal of many infamous writers and producers is just to make money, taking any chance they are offered. They want quick revenue wheter or not America is satisfied and by harshly misleading citizens, their ticket revenues skyrocket. Investigate a little bit, you should never expect more from Hollywood.

I did not go see this movie in theaters because of all the negative reviews. But when i bought it on DVD and watched it, I had fun watching the movie and it is a movie that would probably be better on the big screen but no matter what it is still a good watch. There is just enough blood to keep you hooked and there are a lot of creepy scenes and jumpy ones too. Go out and buy or rent Primeval. You will have a good time.

The only ads I've seen for this movie allude to a serial killer in a remote part of Africa. At no time is there any mention of a GIANT KILLER CROCODILE!!! If I wanted to see that, I would've rented "Lake Placid", "Alligator", or some other horribly acted, horribly written, and horribly directed horror flick about a frickin reptile!In fact, the only good thing about this movie was the occasional comic relief delivered by Orlando Jones, who, despite the movie taking place in Africa, still came off as being the "token black guy."And as if being a cheezy croc. flick wasn't bad enough, they felt the need to associate the reason for the croc.'s existance(its thirst for human blood) with the unspeakable atrocities that occur every day in many of Africa's war-torn nations. Being deceived into watching a bad movie is one thing. But pretending to have a deep underlying message about mass genocide and random senseless slaughter, well, that just makes me sick to my stomach.So please, don't watch this movie. If not for me, then for all the poor suffering people of Africa.

I went into this theatre with a negative outlook. This is not my kind of movie, but I was very surprised. It was fast paced. It was exciting. Yes, it was predictable, but it was entertaining. That's what I pay for!

The laws against false advertising states that any advertisment that misrepresents the product and "injures" (not in a physical sense, as in a loss of cash) the consumer is illegal. Every advertisment states the the film is about a serial killer, and this is the main attraction of the movie. The definition of a serial killer is a PERSON who kills three or more people in a series of 'incidents' (so yes, ninjaeric1, the definition of serial killer is a human). So this is in fact a case of false advertisment and is illegal. Also, it is exacerbated by the fact that the correct information cannot be found anywhere, not in any ad, not on the movie website, not on any blurb. There was absolutely no way of knowing this wasn't true until they had paid for the product. So, who wants to sue?

I am writing a letter to the head of Buena Vista Pictures, along with the receipt for my movie tickets for "Primeval," asking for my money back, on the following grounds:1) False advertising. This movie bills itself as a horror movie about "the prolific serial killer of all time." The problem is, THERE IS NO SERIAL KILLER IN THIS MOVIE. THIS MOVIE IS NOT ABOUT A SERIAL KILLER, NOR IS IT A HORROR MOVIE.2) This movie is supposed to make some sort of statement about a civil war that happened in Rwanda. The actual civil war, however, ended in 2005, so WHO CARES? IT'S OVER!!!3) The plot itself makes no logical sense whatsoever.4) The "monster" in this movie is a giant crocodile that comprises all but 4 minutes of the film. This movie is an absolute fraud that shouldn't go unpunished. I urge all of you to save your ticket stubs and mail to the following name and address, demanding your money back for the aforementioned reasons.
