the 80s nonsense perfection
Classic piece of cheese from the late 80s. Most of the practical FX budget seems to have been spent on the ending. Still, some solid "soap opera" acting and surprisingly no nudity considering the era.
Not just another cheesy monster movie! Sure, it has it's share of cheese, but it's also surprisingly high quality. A hidden gem!
Over the top goofy 80's acting. Great practical effects. Gore and Goop O ' plenty! With a script that you can barely follow. Added half star for that amazing Kill sequence with that high-speed car accident.
I was expecting a B-movie monster movie with bad acting, but to my surprise, it's a good horror movie about an abomination created by science and it was pretty good!
