Does this movie have any flaws?


I don’t think so

reply

nope! besides where did these creatures exist before?

I think not knowing adds to the film, just my opinion.

reply

Well... the monsters suddenly get less dangerous when they're threatening one of the leads, that's mildly annoying.

Why did Mindy’s pogo stick stay upright?

i think it may be cheesy that a random boulder miles from civilization has giant plastic pipes lying around it. it's the one moment that takes me out of the movie a bit. in reality, their best bet probably would've been to just run for it.

They are Wooden fence posts :)

This film is just awesome in every way.

When Val says, "I like this vacuum cleaner." He doesn't seem like the type to do much housework.

Just kidding. It's a perfectly done scare fest with a great cast.

reply

I know you were kidding and maybe hinting at this, but he does mention it’s good for spare parts.

reply

Oh yeah, I remember his "spare parts" comment.

But I do think Val was unnecessarily cruel to Earl when he teased him about being caught in a stampede. "Just how many cattle are needed for a stampede?"

Earl had probably been traumatized and still suffered from PTSD. (kidding again!)

Not a single one, a perfect B movie that sets the bar imo.

The makeup (especially Kevin's) was awful. Whoever did the makeup in this movie should never work in Hollywood ever again.
