Day of the Animals, 23 July 2003
Author: kita117 (kita117@hotmail.com) from Maryland

I actually liked this movie even though it was slow at certain times. It was on the same level as grizzly as being a good movie to own. I just found out that it was on DVD, so I will definitely buy it eventually. I love killer animal movies and this one gives me a good show. My rating *** out of *****.
