hahah, yeah, or the part where they police guys are talking to the mayor..."His arm was all bendy!" that was great 🙂

I'm thinking of checking this out tomorrow. I've heard it be compared to the excellent 'Tremors'. Looks fun.

Im old gregg!

Just bought it on DVD yesterday and let me just say this is an AWESOME movie! Good special effects, great one-liners, lots of laugh out loud moments and loads of gore/gross moments to keep the audience satisfied. All the actors were right for their parts and the story while a bit slow in the beginning really speeds up and doesn't stop until the end.

Even though I was born in 1987, I still have seen a lot of the 80's horror flicks like The Fly, The Thing, Night of the Creeps and Tremors. Director James Gunn really pays homage to the 80's style monster movies in Slither. All throughout the film if you watch and listen closely you'll notice names from all these great movies. This movie was great and I recommend it to everyone who enjoyed the 80's monster movies.

And to think it wasnt even shown at my Multiplex whilst TCM THE BEGGINING notches up its 3rd week

this movie was SO NASTY it was funny, ugh talk about gross 😂

Bump.

Thinking about renting this...

Is it worth it?

i say yes, but most people say no.
Slither doesnt really have its moments.
It has many scene's in which could be called "WTF" worthy.

me i dont need to rent it, Ive seen it 4 times, and i feel its only a 3 time "Seen that" at most.

so far out of ever person i know first hand, who has seen it, other then myself, hates it, and feels it was a mass waste of money.

but if you dont watch it you will never know for yourself.
i say rent it, the worst that can happen is you see some cow's, and have wasted whatever said current film renting fee's there are where you live.

Hmm, I liked it a lot. Could have been better in humor and gore but it sure was a great movie for an evening with some friends and beers.
Nice oneliners around and some impressive effects. Definitely rental-worthy!

well yeah it could have been better, but they made it how they wanted to make it, nathon fillion was more then happy with how it came out.

Cant say i blame him.

Very cool movie anyhow! Atleast it went beyond the modern steotype lame horror style with it's old-school vibe and cool scenes. And some of the lines are real ballbreakers!

This unpretentiously does all it sets out to do.
It has some good gore, some cool FX and creatures, likeable/enjoyable characters, well used humour and mixed various bits from here and there to create it's own film. "The Thing", "Shivers", "Squirm", "Night of the Creeps", "The Blob" and even "Society" were blended together to make a fun horror *new* movie.
The main creature's face gave off a heavy Bilial vibe, "Basket Case's" Frank Hennenlotter was namechecked on a banner, Lloyd Kaufman appeared, Rob Zombie was heard and we had a character named J. MacReady.
Despite some weird criticisms of the CGI, I thought it was very well used, it looked very good for the most part and was utilised as it should be...to enhance 'real' FX and to do impossible things otherwise.
And it was nice to see a film that referenced other films yet still stood on it's own,
Shame that director James Gunn never did the same with his own Zombie film instead of needlessly hyjacking "Dawn of the Dead".
