Poster for the movie Day of the Animals

Day of the Animals (1977)

Ecological horror, as the depleted ozone layer causes animals at higher altitudes to go mad and become violent. Right in the middle of this is a group of high-country “survival hikers” led by guide Christopher George. And to say things go from bad to worse for the members of this little group, which includes Leslie Nielsen, Andrew Stevens, Ruth Roman, Richard Jaeckel, Michael Ansara, and Lynda Day George, is an understatement, particularly after the group splits up and one person begins to suffer from the same madness afflicting the animals. Some bad character decisions and too much standing around and bickering weaken the story, as do some downright implausible attacks.

  Not recommended. Otto thinks you should avoid this movie.

Movie 68 for 2021.
