- Overview
- Plot
Sabretooth is a 2002 natural Sci-fi horror film, starring David Keith, Vanessa Angel, and Josh Holloway. It shows the story of a cloned saber-toothed tiger's bloodthirsty rampage in Sierra Nevada, and of the efforts to stop it.
A janitor carelessly locks himself inside a holding room with a cloned saber-toothed tiger (Smilodon fatalis) and is killed by it after drawing its attention. The next day, at Sierra Summer, a camp preparing a special trip for underpriviledged children, Casey Ballenger, a senior guide, convenes her trainees and they head off into the mountains.
Meanwhile, a trucker trying to transport the saber-tooth for his boss, Catherine Viciy, the scientist responsible for the beast's existence, crashes his truck, freeing it and allowing it to kill him, before fleeing into the mountains. Viciy's superior, Dr. Anthony Bricklin, is amazed when she shows him footage of the saber-tooth, and they leave to find her driver after noticing he's late.
Meanwhile, Ballenger and her trainees, including her ex-boyfriend, Trent Parks, continue on their way, unaware of the saber-tooth's presence. After they see the wreck site, Bricklin and Viciy decide to hire her ex-boyfriend and professional big-game hunter and tracker Robert Thatcher to help them find their cloned cat, tricking him into believing its an African lion, insisting on accompanying him and that it be taken alive. The saber-tooth, meanwhile, attacks and kills a vacationing couple, Mark and Jessie. Jessie goes outside to feed her pet cat, but the Sabertooth ambushes her while Mark runs out after hearing her scream, sees the Sabertooth, runs back inside, but ends up getting killed when it busts right through the door.
Thatcher, Bricklin, Viciy, and zoologist Kara Harmon, her expert and aide, depart into Sierra Nevada to find the escape ancestral cat, tracking to where the couple had been killed, where Viciy tosses away Thatcher's satellite phone to keep him from calling the police and convinces him to allow a day to catch the animal. She then finds the young woman that the Sabertooth attacked last night still alive until the cat drags her into the bushes. Catherine then runs into Kara, telling her she's worried that Thatcher might figure out the Sabertooth.
That night, Thatcher decides to look for other camp fires from the ridge, and Kara is killed by the saber-tooth when she tries to leave to tell him the truth about what he's up against. After finding her, Thatcher swears to kill the cat anyway he can, regardless of his contract. Elsewhere, a romance begins blossoming between Trent and Lola, another of the trainees, who is scared by the saber-tooth after seeing it with what seemed to be Kara's body. She tries telling them, but no one believes her. The next day, the campers find a large pawprint at their camp.
Though Casey at first insists that they return to camp, Lola convinces her to continue their training session. Thatcher and his team eventually discover their trail, with him later that night seeing from its tracks that the saber-tooth is following them. Soon afterwards, one of the trainees, Jason, going to use the restroom, is attacked and killed by the saber-tooth, his scream alerting both his and Thatcher's team. He leave's Viciy and Bricklin to find the Casey's group, wheras Casey and Leon, the final trainee search for Jason, with Trent and Lola searching in the opposite direction. Catherine tells Anthony that no one will live because there is no evidence linking them to the Sabertooth, as the Janitor, Kara, and the vacationing couple had no families at all. Anthony is shocked by this, but insist they keep the Sabertooth alive.
A billionaire, Anthony Bricklin (John Rhys-Davies), funds a scientific project to resurrect the fearsome saber-toothed cat by using a sample of the prehistoric cat's fossilized DNA. The project is...
