The oddball nightmare style is effective but the prop pig and under par acting let the film down.

It isn't as nutty as it could have been, and it certainly isn't as nutty as its description suggests.

The plot may be a bit familiar, but Razorback is no quickie: it's an extremely handsome production, beautifully shot by Dean Semler.

Complete with an expected low-angle pig cam, humorous gore, and unpredictable casualties, it offers dependable '80s B-movie thrills.
