Director Matt Green and renowned makeup-artist-turned-actor Tom Savini teamed up a mere year after their first outing together, 2002s Blood Bath, for another straight-to-DVD horror flick. Vicious finds Savini playing a mysterious government agent who has been placed in charge of a top-secret military experiment gone horribly awry. The fruit of the experiment is a blood-thirsty beast that feeds on humans. When an unsuspecting group of teens happen upon the forest home of the agent and his pet, they find themselves on the creatures menu. Brian Bremer and Leigh Hill also star. ~ Matthew Tobey, All Movie Guide
