People are dying mysteriously and gruesomely, and nobody has a clue what the cause is. Only health worker Mike Brady has a possible solution, but his theory of killer slugs is laughed at by the authorities. Only when the body count begins to rise and a slug expert from England begins snooping around does it begin to look like Mike had the right idea after all. In the vein of Squirm, people die gruesome and gory deaths by slippery-slithering SLUGS!
Some nice good old-fashioned blood and gore mixed with the typical genre-gratuitous nudity and cheese and even some really funny parts. The movie was well put together, average to good acting, with a nice and entertaining plot. The great mix of story, blood and gore makes this one of the most underrated horror films I have seen in a while.
Although, some of the movie really made no sense, but then again it is a horror movie. It doesn’t have to. I also was left wanting more with the way the slugs were destroyed. It seems like the entire movie built up to what I would have thought would be an epic demise, but, nah. Still, the movie really delivered.
This movie to me seems like it was really inspired by Squirm, although this one was a lot bloodier (and a bit better) I still think Squirm was at least more plausible (but we don’t watch horror movies for plausible scenarios!). The movie seemed to have a bit more T & A than expected, but can’t complain about that, we even get a full “down below” shot.
All kidding aside, the movie was very entertaining, bloody, funny and nicely done. I was pleasantly surprised with this movie. For people who loves those slippery killer critter movies like Squirm and Frog without a doubt!
