Mjeteconer Just perfect...
Steineded How sad is this?
Limerculer A waste of 90 minutes of my life
Ava-Grace Willis Story: It's very simple but honestly that is fine.
quridley This has the charm and spirit that you look for in these generic 90s straight-to-video genre movies. Its a very lazy and illogical mix of John Carpenter's The Thing, Evil Dead and From Dusk Til Dawn (or maybe its just a clever ripoff of Predator), probably shot in a week's time with almost no money. But JR keeps it heavy on action, plot and humor. The action is laughable, the plot is full of holes and the humor is cringeworthy, but the sincerity is impressive. The best moments are the groan-inducing attempts at romantic dialogue and teary acting. Its wonderful camp! Because it is both amateurish and ironic, this film is like Don Dohler meets John Waters.
Leofwine_draca POLYMORPH is another example of cheap and cheesy Z-grade film-making from director J.R. Bookwalkter, the man who made THE DEAD NEXT DOOR back in the 1980s and has who has been shooting fun, zero budget productions ever since. POLYMORPH is a typically high energy production in which a bunch of characters in the woods are assailed by a body-swapping alien parasite.The film openly references THE EVIL DEAD and feels a little like it, although much less inferior. The alien is much like the one in THE HIDDEN although the effects aren't quite up to the job. The stilted dialogue is occasionally excruciating, but the comic book-style info boxes and the cheesy computer FX are mildly amusing as is the film as a whole.
steveulven I don't know what the reviewer above was thinking with "solid performances", the acting for the most part is garbage, the cinematography isn't great (but not terrible), music is sort of crap most of the time, but it's obvious there was barely a budget for this movie so you can't blame them for that.Now that being said, this is actually an entertaining movie, as stated previously, not much is done well mostly I'm sure due to lack of budget. So if you are used to these types of movies, grab this movie and give it one view, you most likely will not be disappointed if you're used to the low/no budget films.I really hope this doesn't violate spoiler policy 'cause I want everyone to read this that is interested in this movie and I don't consider this a spoiler, but this movie unlike many may suspect doesn't end all happy and is pulled off well I think, very effective. It's really nice to have a change of pace now and then without this happy ending crap.
johnoakdalton Nice sci-fi action with welcome doses of humor and solid performances all around. Gun-toting drug runners cross paths with camping college students in the deep woods, with an alien organism thrown into the mix. Double and triple crosses, lots of gunplay and alien body-snatching in this fun outing.
