DOMINION is a cheap and amusing B-movie action flick with a woodland setting. The story has been done a million times and there's little about this low budget effort that isn't familiar. At worst, the characters are all bland and unremarkable, merely walking figures waiting to be bumped off in the next twist of the plot. However, DOMINION benefits hugely from the presence of one man, the late, great Brion James, playing the villain of the hour. He brings a lot of menace to the role and is perfectly cast as the hunter who decides on human prey. The rest is slick and fast, running through the plot at speed and incorporating plenty of cheesy, violent escapade into the running time. Watch out for Tim Thomerson's cameo.

Silly and violent thriller that is a rip - off of 'Deliverance' but without any charm and intelligence. The plot is ridiculous and the cast seems to be tired and anxious to be free of this obnoxious entry. This movie is a solid example of a bad plot and a very, very bad idea all the way. It's a shame to see good actors like Thomerson and James make a living in a mess like this.

There are much better hunted in the woods movies to choose from, one vastly superior similar film would be "Hunter's Blood". "Dominion" is sorely lacking in the character development, and logic, departments. Brion James goes on a killing spree after his son is accidentally shot by one of the sportsmen. The six friends who he stalks in the woods are all boring, non-developed characters. James himself occasionally becomes boring with his philosophical rants. The scenery is gorgeous, and the fact that the killer's identity is mistaken by another group of hunters is a plus. Despite this, there are many problems with "Dominion", including an indestructible hero, who jumps off a cliff, and then just continues racing through the brush like nothing happened. Throw in some amazing coincidences as to who knew who was where, and finally, the just when you thought it was over it wasn't finale, made for a pathetically weak ending. - MERK
