Mothman (2010 TV Movie)
4/10
More Skiffy Goodness.

Warning: Spoilers
Yes, the usual elements- an actress from a popular SciFi show teams up with a poorly rendered CGI monster, hilarity ensues.

So ten years ago, some kids accidentally drown someone's little brother, and then bash in his head with a rock so it looks like an accident. (Hint- No one is going to think it was an "accident" if you bash his head in 7 times!) So ten years after getting out of the little hick town of Point Pleasant (which is known for nothing other than the "real life" Mothman sightings in the 1960's) Firefly's Jewel Staite returns to write a story about her home town. This allows the monster to come out of hibernation, even though it could have picked off the other six conspirators at any time.

So what you have are a bunch of E-listers getting picked off while Jewell tries to figure out the problem. Most of it is just filler and you have those sudden breaks for commercials.

I give this a little better than I give most of these because I like Jewell Staite so much. Too bad they couldn't give her something interesting to do.
