no.sorry.my mistake.i thought for a minute i may have found the plot to this movie.but i don't think think a search party could have any success finding the plot to this movie.there are a few good actors in this movie,but they can't do anything to make it better.i think the movie dragged their performances down with it.as a a result,you won't find much in the way of acting here.and the dialogue.wow.awful,truly awful.i suspect they were going for something profound here,but they fell short by a long shot.this thing is really tedious.i think this is a case where they should have scrapped this thing before it was done,or at least not released it.i don't want to say it's bad,but it sure is the opposite of good.this is how i feel about the movie,and others may feel differently.all i know is,it sure didn't do it for me. for me,Dream Warrior is a 1*/10 movie.

This movie wasn't at all what we expected? We got the impression from the box that it was set in the ancient ages? IE. Attila, or Braveheart because the case showed a guy dressed in armor almost like something from a movie set in the mid-evil era. I was disappointed in the movie overall I found the fight scenes far to rehearsed looking and slow the acting was poor at best minus Danica's (parish's wife, the few's scene's she was in were okay and her acting was slightly better than her co-actor's). It is a (2004) movie but it appeared to be done as a low budget 80's flick which may be due to a low budget I am not sure? It left far to many unanswered question's and overall I cannot even think of a movie to compare it to and unfortunately we feel as though this is one movie that we should not have rented. And I guess it proves the saying, Never judge a movie by the case it comes in :)!!

This is one of the worst movies i have ever watched. I would rather remove my eyes with a spoon then even think of watching this garbage again. The guy on the cover was not even in the movie!!!!! Was that honestly the director's cut.... I mean come on i could have made a better movie with the camera on my cell phone.I would have to say that the budget for this movie must have been $20 and a loaf of bread to feed the way over priced actors and actresses, who were horrible i must add..... but i will have to say that it is better than watching open water, or Dracula 3000 which isn't very hard to beat... whoever made this movie should never be allowed to produce or direct a movie like this!

Throughout the late 1950's and early 1960's, motion picture studios capitalized on the popularity of film by churning out hundreds of B movies. Most of these are forgettable, but, every so often, a picture managed to capture the imagination of an audience and, consequently, turned a tidy profit. As digital film-making technology in the 21st century continues to become available to the booming population, any cinemaphile armed with a camcorder believes he's the next Spielberg, Scorsese, or – could it be – George Lucas. The resulting explosion of horror, thriller, or low-grade science fiction titles available at your corner Blockbuster Video continues to grow. In an era of modern film-making when any Tom, Dick, or Harry possesses affordable technology to make a motion picture, it only stands to reason that there will eventually be more folks making motion pictures than those who should truly be allowed to make motion pictures, and rarely has there been better evidence than that of the direct-to-DVD schlock, "Dream Warrior, " also known as "A Man Called Rage." Rage (played by an unshaven Daniel Goddard) is no ordinary man. Though he's blessed with 'Men's Health' spokesmodel good looks, he's little more than a mutant with superhuman abilities … abilities that start and stop with the gift of grunting and flexing and throwing a grenade on cue. That, and he packs a mean air pistol. He's on the run from Parish (played by ever-reliable and, apparently, always affordable Lance Henricksen), the future's 'man of God' who wants to wipe the impure mutants – like Rage – off the face of the planet … if he could just find then all hiding outside his single building. But when Rage is rescued by a beautiful mutant (the lovely Sherilyn Fenn of 'Twin Peaks' fame), he throws caution to the wind in favor of saving Parish's infant son from the evil leader's nefarious plan … which never quite gets fully explained.Made in a derelict warehouse with wooded exteriors shot a stone's throw away, "Dream Warrior" presents the story of an uninteresting apocalyptic tomorrow not unlike the world seen in the 'Mad Max' films only with much less desert: shabbily-dressed survivors – normal in every sense of the word save their psychic abilities to hurl lightning, heal the injured, and sense water (woohoo!) if they're not dressing 'Goth' and watching men fight to the death on top of a truck bed – march through the woods in search of 'The River,' a place of legend where mankind's last hope for survival can be realized. Of course – with a plot this thin – you know it's only a matter of time before all of these characters are thrown together. Blacksploitation legend Isaac Hayes even makes an appearance as a shadowy religious loner sent to explain it all to the mutants because they apparently don't have enough sense to figure it out for themselves.At best, the film is a guilty pleasure. At worst, the film takes pleasure at being just plain guilty. "Dream Warrior" boasts no real dreams nor any real warriors, and it takes just over 91 minutes for Rage to discover that he's Parish's firstborn, to help kill his maniacal father, and to march off into the woods intent on saving the world. From what? We're never told.Written and directed by Zachary Weintraub, "Warrior" proves definitively that there is one too many Weintraub's working in the film industry.
