80 Menschen werden aus ihrer gewohnten Umgebung gerissen und finden sich in einer Arena wieder. Junge und Alte, Sportliche und Behinderte, Reiche und Arme sind gezwungen, ein blutiges Spiel zu spielen. Die Regeln: Nur einer kann diesen Krieg lebend wieder verlassen! Die Schule, das Haus und das Gefängnis sind sicher. Folge den Pfeilen, oder du stirbst. Bleibe auf dem Pfad, oder du stirbst. Wenn du überrundet wirst, stirbst du. Berühre nicht das Gras, sonst stirbst du. Lauf oder stirb! (KSM/NEW KSM)

Aus dem Film kommt zwar kein Hit, aber trotz der billigen Optik spürt man seine autorenmäßige Begeisterung. Ich schätze auf jeden Fall das schnelle Tempo, die vielen explodierenden Köpfe und die energiegeladene Musik, besonders beim Intro und Abspann. Aber das Ende hat mich leider nicht sonderlich überrascht, dank einiger Hinweise lässt es sich etwa zur Hälfte des Films erahnen. Der Hauptcharakter ist jedoch ein echter Kerl!

The most entertaining horror B-movie of the year. Really, this film looks terrible, but if you get over the ugly visuals, you’ll enjoy an uncompromising and brutal carnage, a brisk and violent action ride that spares nobody – old people, women, children. Eighty people find themselves in some sort of futuristic arena and must fight for their lives – only one can survive. It’s a horror take on The Hunger Games or Battle Royale. But what will make The Human Race really memorable is the nasty twist in the last minutes (I appeal to others to refrain from revealing it in their comments), which in a way gives it an almost cult status. I hope that Paul Hough will get at least 10 million USD for a remake with a more decent visual quality and then 50 million to make a sequel. I want to watch that now!

Yes, if more effort had been put into the script, if there had been a bit more money, and if the ending were different, this could have been a great film. But even with what the creators had, they managed to create something meaningful, something that isn't just a superficial work. In terms of independent filmmaking, this is really good. I can't go too high with the rating because there are flaws and they are too visible, but this is a film I enjoyed watching.

This didn't go so well. The Human Race suffers from a very low budget and a look that is like something out of the 90s. Fortunately, you get too bored, there is always something going on, but it's pretty unsatisfying and I'm not happy with the gore, which is poorly handled and I'd rather not have seen it. The final twist does have something to it, but I still have a lot of unanswered questions. 40%.
