Not letting the success of Ape vs Monster go to waste The Asylum is back with Ape vs. Mecha Ape. This time they’ve brought in Marc Gottlieb to write and direct. While it’s only his second feature, the other was Cousin Howard back in 1995, and the first one for The Asylum he’s written several scripts for them including Jungle Run, 2025 Armageddon, and Aquarium of the Dead. Can he kick the franchise into gear after its dismal first film?
Ape vs. Mecha Ape opens with a chemical weapons plant that looks like an old warehouse being attacked by what looks like the giant ape Abraham. A few explosions later we see that it’s actually a giant, well-armed, robot which makes short work of the plant’s security.

No, Bullet Train Down is not a crossover of the Gerard Butler “…Down” franchise and the recent Brad Pitt film. But since it is from The Asylum you can bet it does borrow heavily from other films, in this case taking the train from Bullet Train and placing the bomb from Speed on it. Yes, in just sixteen years they’ve has gone from Snakes of a Train to Bombs on a Train, that’s progress.
Jack Banta is about to see a dream come true, the inaugural run of his company’s latest breakthrough, the world’s fastest bullet train. Among the others on board is his assistant Lou, vloggers Claire and Davey and ex-military bomb disposal expert Kessler Briggs.

Since The Asylum isn’t smart enough to know when to stop they’ve just released yet another shark film, Megalodon Rising. Since I’m not that smart either, I’m reviewing it. But you are smart enough not to go near one of their films without checking it out first, you’re reading it.
A Chinese warship with what appears to be a crew of three is conducting a test of a top secret espionage device just off the US coast. The test is deemed a success but moments later a giant shark rams and sinks the vessel. The only survivor is a scientist Dr. Lee (Freda Yifan Jing). She’s picked up by the USS King, under the command of Captain Lynch (Wynter Eddins). A Chinese destroyer turns up demanding the immediate return of Dr.
