Only watched the 3D version on DVD so far, some scenes look good and you can tell it was made and shot to be a 3D film. Some scenes looked more like a hologram though. I have to add the colours seemed a bit out at times .....barely noticed the blood which there is tons of!? Will watch again in 2D soon.
Otherwise it's a fun, very bloody, gory creature feature with some good SFX, plenty of hot girls including Kelly Brook, good soundtrack, some tongue in cheek humour and a decent cast! It's a little short at 78mins and the climax of the film wasn't exactly epic. If you like cool films that know their target audience, you'll enjoy this!

Already aged 32, Douglas turned down several supporting roles in “bigger” films for MGM in order to take a risk on a lead role that might get him some attention, by showcasing his physicality and skill at playing characters of ambiguous morality. His choice was vindicated, as the role of boxer Midge Kelly, a man who will stop at nothing to reach the top, earned him the first of 3 Oscar nominations and put him firmly on the map. Looking back on it now, everything about it seems dated, except Douglas, whose style, whilst still showing evidence of his theatrical roots, shone head and shoulders above the rest of the cast. Apparently a big influence on Scorsese and DeNiro for the boxing scenes in Raging Bull.
