Movie Reviews of The Deadly Spawn
Movie Review: The deadly spawn.
Summary: 5 Stars
I have to agree with what another reviewer wrote about this film that it rises above its low budget origins, the special effects are what made this film even better. When I saw that this film was being rereleased on dvd I just had to order it as soon as posible, it seems that the film makers try their best to make a pretty gory and disgusting horror film which is realy great despite the very low budget. The image quality is realy clear and some dark scenes at the basement are visible and not to dark, the scene where the kid watches his mother's decapitated head being eaten by the small aliens is priceless and is my favorite scene in the film, his reaction is very wierd he realy is a bad actor lol. The older brother doesn't seem to beleive what is going on as the big alien is devouring alot of people that enter the house including his uncle who is spending the weekend there. there are alot of gory scenes in this film including face ripping and very nice decapitations and eyes are ripped out of their sockets and the big alien which is the star of this film seems to be very impresive with its huge jawline and nasty looking teeth and it looks like it might have come out of someones worst nightmare, overall I think the film was great and it would appeal to fans of low budget horror films and I definently think that it beats alot of these modern horror films that are being made today.Movie Review: A favorite of mine! Thanks Synapse films!

When I say my Dad rented every Horror flick under the sun and allowed me to watch them,(most of them), I mean it! Although too young to remember the title, I only had a few scenes from 'The Deadly Spawn' stuck in my head. There were only two. One is a woman's head flying out a window of a white two story house and the other, a scene were the little boy has to confront the alien and kill it while in the basement! Those rows of teeth the alien has is hard to forget! Heck, the alien itself is hard to forget haha. It wasn't until I was in my early twenties when I bought a book titled, 'Creature Features', by John Stanley, and fount out the title of this awesome b-horror! I had already had a fair amount of Horror flicks, but not having this one, drove me NUTS! I remember jumping with joy as soon as I came across the title in my book!!! At last I had figured out what my movie was! At that time it had not hit dvd yet so I had to turn to ebay for a hefty price for a vhs copy. Thank you Synapse Films for releasing this Horror gem on disk! A truly must own flick for fans of B-Horror! All I need is more Ted A. Bohus produced films such as 'The Regenerated Man' and 'Mind Killer'!!! Come on Synapse!...make it happen!Movie Review: Classic
Summary: 5 Stars
This is one of those movies that once you watch it, you fall in love with it. It somehow finds a special place in your heart and stays there. Almost like Critters or Demons. You don't know why you like it, but you do.
Incredible job on the making and directing of this B movie. This is a classic example of what can happen when determined people get together to make a movie on almost no budget at all.
This movie is also relentless. There is a scene where the little boy is in the basement watching his mom(forgive me if i'm wrong, it might have been his sister, aunt, lover,etc) being eaten. Her skull is lying there with goop all over it. Classic scene. This movie also has a pretty neat ending. Nothing mind blowing but i didn't expect it.
Buy the DvD for your collection. It just got released so pick it up at Best Buy or whatever store you go to. My wife bought me this for Christmas so i have to wait until then before i can watch it again. I'm tempted to open the present, watch it, and then re-wrap it. She would never know.
Movie Review: Good Gore!!
Summary: 5 Stars
This movie is pretty campy, and overall plays out like a childhood fantasy, but it's pretty funny in a gross-out sort of way. And it makes with the red stuff big time, bro. Lots and lots of gore, slime, and guts. Probably ranks in the top 20 goriest films ever made. These slimy aliens that look like R-rated versions of the Little Shop of Horrors plant eat people and slither around. Overall it's pretty cool if you like the B movie sci fi horror. And synapse gives us a great DVD transfer with good extras and all that jazz.Movie Review: An original creature...
Summary: 5 Stars
This is truly on of the most original sci-fi creatures I have ever seen. The movie is about a meteor that crashes on earth. Some people discover it and in it is a living creature. The creature begins to multiply in numbers and size upon eating its favorite meal--humans. Very cool little flick with plenty of gore, interesting story, excellent creatures. Check it out, it is a worthy addition to your sci-fi/horror library. I don't want to ruin anymore of the story so go on and get it...you will not regret it.
