 One of the Good Ones May 12, 2009

Usually Sci Fi channel movies are heavy with the cheese, sparse with the plot, and graphics that make someone born after '80 cringe. And yes Mammoth give us a completely ridiculous plot; a mammoth that had been possessed by an alien right before it was flash-freezed defrosts in modern day and wrecks havoc. But the acting is amazing, the cheese is sweet and you'll love the characters, especially Vincent Ventresca's Dr. Frank, like they're your social awkward best friend.
I'm keeping back only one star because the DVD lacks any kind of special features, in spite of it's UNRATED proclamation, and it doesn't have any subtitles. I love subtitles so this is more a personal choice than an overall criticism. But when you think about it, in this inclusive genre and era not having subtitles for the deaf and hard of hearing Sci-Fi lovers is just lazy.
 Tongue-in-Cheek Gem March 19, 2009

This tongue-in-cheek film is a gem. Filled with jokes poking fun at other sci-fi staples, characters, and themes, it also packs some surprise plot twists and moments. The actors were top notch and fun to watch. At points where it looks like the movie is going to drag, something always pops up to surprise and delight. If you want a serious horror film or don't like comedy mixed with your thrills, this isn't the movie for you. But if you enjoy a rollercoaster ride of great chills, unexpected moments, quirks, and laughs, this is a wonderful choice.
One of the best low-budget films ever made.... January 5, 2009

I first saw this on the Sci-Fi Channel. I was bored on a rainy Saturday, and couldn't find anything that looked more interesting. I was expecting the typical monster-comes-to-life-and-eats-the-world kind of thing, but I was very pleasantly surprised. This is head & shoulders above the usual B-monster movies. And it has a surprising amount of subtle comedy, as well.
I won't give away any details, but it's well worth buying at a used price. Try it. You won't be disappointed.
 A zombie mammoth sucks the souls out of people? December 25, 2008
Micheal Hunt (Hellbourne)
This movie would be completely passed by if no one took interest from Summer Glau (Sarah Conner Chronicles - Terminator) being in it.
The whole concept of this movie is stale and boring. A guy owns a museum, in it is a Mammoth in ice that he finds an alien device in that triggers aliens sending some probe to earth to take over the Mammoth like a zombie, or mummy or something. So the Mammoth comes back to life and sucks the souls out of people.
I could not bare to sit through any more then 30 mins of this, it was just going no where and getting more ridicules as it went on... Why would a mammoth come back to life to suck souls out of people? If it was explained, I really do not care for such a stupid plot.

It is an average movie about a historical Mammoth that is awaken and goes loose after being hit by meteor, it is good for children.
