Title: Slither
Post by: Uncle Mike on 02 January 2010, 09:30:43 PM

I had never seen it and watched it the other night...what a great, campy, vaguely Lovecraftian romp. if you've never seen 'Slither' I highly recomend it. Part homage to movies like 'Deadly Spawn', 'Night Of The Creeps' and 'The Thing' and part modernized telling of 'The color Out Of Space', The Dunwich Horror' and 'Shadow Over Innsmouth'. Silly and overly gross at times but some great special effects and a wonderful cast. No one ever makes a perfect 'tentacle horror' but this on is about as close as I've seen. Also, quite funny...in a sick sort of way...

Yes, Slither is my favorite horror movie!

I'm working on sculpting some of the characters...so far I've done the 'human womb'.  I've got a base full of 'worms' as well.

Slither, that's the one with the little turd like beings wriggling about and being nasty in a general way?

Pssst....sell it to Mike before painting...maybe he can cast it and make rules for a 'Breeder' in Strange Aeons 8)

Yea.  That's a good beer and pretzels flick.  I always liked it.
