Red Sands

I’ve seen this plot twice before. American troops in the Middle East unleash ancient monster trapped by some magic, monster proceeds to kill and maim. The two previous versions were Sci-Fi’s “Manticore” and “Monster Ark”. This one was a little better than those other two, but it’s a leper with the most fingers honor- dubious to say the least.I have to admit, this one is a little better than the other two. First, the actors were plausible as soldiers. They got the uniforms right, they got the equipment right, they got the procedures mostly right. (Some things they got wrong for dramatic effect, but it’s forgivable.)The film had a good budget, but followed the rule of not revealing your monster until the end of the film. Given the monster was rendered by some very poor CGI, that’s probably for the best. The director instead substituted some atmospheric chills.I’m probably giving this a better rating than it deserves, but that was only because it was so much better than those other two.
