Movie Reviews of The Stuff
Movie Review: Excellent sci-fi and marketing satire!!!
Summary: 5 Stars
This movie works on many levels. It's a sci-fi movie about Stuff that bubbles up from the ground to become the latest food rage. The problem is the more you eat the more it takes control of you. But at a more critical level it attacks the product marketing by executives and ads that will sell us anything as long as they can make a buck. Even stuff that will destroy you. The DVD has the added value of comments by the director Larry Cohen which include great stories about making the film. Michael Moriarty is great as the quirky industrial spy hired by the ice cream companies to find out the secret formula for the stuff. Garrett Morris plays Chocolate Chip Charlie an obvious takeoff of Famous Amos.
Simply a great movie.
Movie Review: The Stuff--My Favorite B-DVD
Summary: 5 Stars
This is my favorite "scary" movie to watch when I am just a little traumatized by too much gore, action, and special effects. The story remains fresh and topical, with just enough sly references to the past decade (or so) to give adults a smile. The performances, especially by Moriarty and Sorvino, are outstanding--one of those rare occasions when it's actually great fun to watch actors obviously having fun! There is a light-heartedness about this film, a gentle acceptance of the foibles of human nature, that will lure you in and make you (against your better judgement?) watch it more than once.Movie Review: Timeless
Summary: 5 Stars
Although some may find the movie silly, people must remember it is from the 80's. This movie is timeless and brings back some great memories. However, if you have never seen it before it is still a great movie. There are some gruesome scenes for people who are into that like myself. The story line is not up to todays standards, but it is fun and enjoyable to follow. If you are a horror movie fan this movie is for you. A great add to a collection!Movie Review: 5 stars for cheese
Summary: 5 Stars
for absolute cheese value only, i give 5 stars.
The storyline is practically non existent, and the acting ability of the cast really should have been questioned back in the 80's, but for a walk down memory lane I couldnt beat it. One of only two "adult" rated films in the UK that I saw before I legally could, so I am slightly biased, but I loved it (the other was Nightmare on Elm St).
Movie Review: The Stuff vs. The Taste
Summary: 5 Stars
I first watched this movie as a small child, and I have loved it ever since. The DVD is top notch, especially the bonus tracks. I love how they spend all this time to market this new product in the film, if only they had spent as much effort to market the actual film, it would be as classic as Attack of the Killer Tomatos and Egah. Great DVD...brings back great memories!
