Slither

If your idea of fun involves zombies, monstrous physical transformations and alien slugs bent on world domination, look no further than James Gunn's gleeful homage to all things gross and horrible actually makes good on the "horror comedy" label by being both flat-out creepy and darkly funny.

Slither begins briskly, gradually accelerates and eventually achieves a breakneck momentum that makes the wild ride even more exhilarating.

Slither is neither repetitive nor reverent. It is a dark and hilarious spoof of those movies, one in which both the characters and the audience seem to be in on the jokes.

Gross-out horror comedy is my least favorite genre, but this movie's so skillful I have to take my hat off to it.

Slither is what it is, unapologetically, and unlike Gunn's work on "Dawn of the Dead," it's probably too weird to be a crossover hit. Either you've got worms in your heart or you don't.

Let's get this straight from the start: Slither isn't great art, but that doesn't mean it isn't good entertainment.

B movies are fun because they're rinky dink. I got the joke and just didn't like the joke even though I respect Gunn for doing what he wanted to do.

This looks great. The effects were convincing and the style simple but effective. There is CGI but it does not detract from the entertainment and isn’t even that noticeable. Really nice sound design. Not the most exciting mix but it fits with the film and it works so well. This has the best story and characters. It shows an alien landing and trying to take over the world. It is cheesy in a fun way. It is so disgusting and over-the-top that it is hard not to enjoy it! The mixture of the characters, the horror and the pace make this one of my favourite horror comedies of all time. It is not serious and it is disgusting with a brilliant core story and characters driving it.

a highly entertaining, if not necessarily memorable horror comedy with a bunch of fun homages to classic horror movies like A Nightmare on Elm Street and The Thing, as well as some of the most incredible body-horror effects I have ever seen.

This film is so weird. I really don't know what I felt watching this movie. Sometimes I had fun and sometimes I just felt nothing. This movie isn't so bad but also isn't so good.

Sieht bisschen wie eine komödie aus....Mehr Komödie als Horror. Kein guter Film. 1/10 *
