Summary: Ted Bohus at his best,
Review: A genetic worker is bitten by a frog-like alien and is slowly mutated into a blood thirsty terror that is stalking the talos corperation. daughter (Tara Leigh)of one of the security guards slaughtered by the monster is chased by it and it seems too powerful to be stoped........

this is one of my favriote Ted Bohus
(producer of the deadly spawn, the renigaded man, and owner of SPFX magazine!) films!!!!!!!!!!!
although the acting and story is not great, the monsters are!!!!! a must see...............

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Great gore, fun acting
Review: Better than The Fly, and awfully similar! Patrick Barnes and Tara Leigh are a stich as a couple of monster-fighters! Funny and horrifying both!

Rating: 5 stars

Summary: Surprisingly good,
Review: I picked this up, expecting it to be a standard direct-to-video junkie. But, surprisingly, it wasn't too bad. For one thing, the special effects were excellent, the monsters were awesome, and it had some good twists, but poor acting and a silly plot hammer it.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Surprisingly good,
Review: It's another bout of aliens chasing pinhead humans through some high-tech ultra-secret lab (if you ever caught "X-Tro2" or "Resident Evil" you know what I'm talking about). The alien is actually a morphed human - a schmo scientist infected when he's bitten by an alien specimen. Just to give you an idea of the flick's many lapses in reason - the guy is experimenting on a nasty looking alien looking like a pair of jaws with a body wrapped around it. When he accidentally drives the creature into a rage, it bites him severely. Now the alien looks pretty dangerous, so the scientist uses a glove-box...which proves nowhere near sufficient to keep him safe. (You call yourself a scientist?!). The flick starts off looking pretty scary because it sounds scary - heavy breathing makes you think that something is always about to pop-out. Eventually, the metamorphosis is complete, and the scientist turns into something huge and loud (but not so huge that it can't navigate the lab's narrow hallways, or so loud that it won't warn away its prey). Although this is a bio-chemical lab, there's some nuclear proton thingee kept in a room big enough to let the alien thingee in. Also, despite the hazards involved, the sole support our heroes can rely on is a dim-witted security guard who's armed with the world's only nine-shot revolver. Weak FX, dumb lines (and not in the fun way) and dim characters make this a movie you want to fast-forward through - only to confront a dumb ending. Is it so hard to make a flick that's funny or that can at least poke fun at itself in the "Basket Case" or "Evil Dead" mold.

Summary: little suspence, good effects.
Review: Like "The fly" and "aliens", the special FX in this are exellent.
their is obviously alot of time and Creativity put into the FX.
But, the script, and the actinng, on the other hand, are not that good, witch make it feel a bit fun to watch. If you have an hour or so to kill, give this one a try, or, rent one of the other bigger budget movies that managed to do it with more money and alot more intrest. Worth a look, i guess..............

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Much Blood
Review: Not enough story. This was a very cheap ripe off of Alien. It was goofy, with a decent looking monster. Actually it kinda looked like a big uncut penis. W/ teeth! Alot of blood and dumb blondes made this a true classic in B movie heaven. With a supposedly twist ending, could have had a sequel. But I don't think it did.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: gory sci-fi !!
Review: rented this movie from a local video libary out of sheer curosity and found a entertaining movie that met my expectations perfectly;Bad acting, exellent special effects, and a
so-so story. A genetic researcher is bitten by a monster in a lab and he turns into a rampaging monstrosity that eats every one in sight. this film went on to win numerous awards such as
the Houston film festavle award for best Special effects.
