Progeny (1998)
5/10
a bit disappointing
10 September 2012
I had high expectations for this movie, but unfortunately it didn't live up to it.

The storyline was OK, not "Oh my god, I've never seen anything like this before"-OK, but just plain OK, so if you are into these type of movies, you might like it, even though there are much better movies available in this genre.

The poor acting really annoyed me and is solely responsible for my 5 out of 10 score. Unlike other movies I've seen starring Arnold Vosloo, he didn't impress me at all in Progeny: it seemed like instead of distributing the Valium to his patients, he probably ate it as candy himself...

And casting Wilford Brimley as a doctor: who's idea was that??? With all due respect for the man and his acting qualities, playing a doctor just doesn't match his physique!

Jillian McWhirter on the other hand did a great job!

So was I glad that I saw this movie? Yes, but only because it adds another movie to my watch-list and because now I know for sure that I won't watch it a second time, except maybe to see Jillian McWirthers beautiful body again ;)
