January is notorious for theaters dumping all the low-rated horror flicks on their schedule. This is about as basic a concept as you can get: a domesticated sign language chimp introduced into a human family unit becomes infected with rabies and goes on the offensive. The practical effects and gory kills are self-explanatory, although largely uninspired. It almost sounds as though it were scored by John Carpenter, so it has a dark menacing feel to it. If you've seen films like Link or Monkey Shines, you already know what to expect.
1½ "movie, bad" out of 5
