JinRoz For all the hype it got I was expecting a lot more!

Crwthod A lot more amusing than I thought it would be.

Fairaher The film makes a home in your brain and the only cure is to see it again.

Voxitype Good films always raise compelling questions, whether the format is fiction or documentary fact.

jcromwell66762 I really enjoyed this movie. I am not a movie buff, I just watch ones that sound interesting, and this one did. Never heard of any of the actors, but it was well written, and well acted. It has such a deliciously twisted story line, and the characters are quite realistic. Wayne was my favorite person, so totally nonchalant and business like. It added so much depth, and Edgar was perfectly psycho enough!! If you want a decent, suspenseful, and entertaining movie, I do not think you can go wrong. It combines elements that are the most primal in all "live animals", the basic emotions that exist in all creatures. The director and actors did an awesome job, and I understand this was not a high budget film, it has became a standard in my favorites list and is destined to stay there for a long, long time!

billcr12 Live Animals is in the same category as Saw and Hostel; independent, torture films, which portray the lowest level of humanity; this feature is not for children or those easily offended. College students make the mistake of having a little party in the woods. They are abducted by a group of slave traders and held captive, chained, and in cages, as the title implies.The holding place almost looks like a prison, with adjacent cells holding the human cattle, and they are tortured mercilessly by their overseers. I guess the point here is our nasty treatment of animals for our food supply. The acting is nothing special, and the story watchable for the short, eighty six minute running time. If you need to kill an hour and a half on a rainy afternoon, Live Animals is an entertaining diversion.

gobstoppers9 This was by far one of the worst attempts at psychological horror i have seen that actually tried to be serious. The sound and dialog was extremely sub-par, even for a lower budget film. No character development leave you not caring for any of the major characters, and the numerous plot holes leaves you guessing half the movie. Avoid at all costs. As for anyone that says to see it for the fun factor or anything like that, I would definitely look elsewhere, as the visual effects and gore are horrible and sometimes non-existent. The obvious seems to escape the characters at many times and make them seem extremely one dimensional and forced.

happytanker I personally found this film to be rather unimaginative and quite boring. Rather another poor attempt at a "shock" movie along the same vein as hostel and it's brethren that promises something and does not deliver! The actual gore effects are few and far between as well as being somewhat unrealistic i thought, most just being splattered blood thrown around haphazardly with the actual parts that could be considered cringe-worthy either rushed through or missed out entirely. As for the plot, well..... i think you might find thicker in a sheet of toilet paper and you may have a more unpredictable ending too! My recommendation would be to give this one a miss and save yourself the disappointment.
