An isolated Canadian town (populated by the weirdest group of people this side of Saturn) has seen its share of problems. First the nut factory closed, then the CATV antenna stopped broadcasting, and now something is gruesomely devouring the townsfolk! Can visiting atomic scientist (and expert on "cool fusion") Dr. Karel Lamonte solve the mystery before everyone disappears?

Clevercell Very disappointing...
Beanbioca As Good As It Gets
Roman Sampson One of the most extraordinary films you will see this year. Take that as you want.
Kien Navarro Exactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.
cvessey OK, it's not *much* of a spoiler, but some people don't like hearing the good lines.The movie? B, but it knew it. I can respect that, same way I can respect Bruce Campbell and Evil Dead Part 2.The line? It's not even a full line, but it's the way Campbell Scott's atomic scientist character rattles off "the hilly lumpy bumpy part of town outside of town" without even a twinkle in the eye. Amazing.The movie is pure camp, hokey as hell. The inflatable dummy in the bathtub is, uhm, bizarre.This movie is best watched with a couple of ready-to-hand scotches, or your favourite mixed drink.
gunchick I cannot recommend this movie highly enough. It is the best spoof on B Sci-fi movies I can think of. The deadpan delivery of Campbell Scott, as well as the twists and turns never get old. Nigel Bennett is also a great addition as the vacuum salesman. I just had to buy the DVD so I could watch it over and over. I rate it a 10/10.
WALLACEKJ I just saw this film and really had no idea what to expect. I watched it twice and found that I really enjoyed it. Its a strange, funny little tale. I really thought it was going to be dumb. But as turns out I really liked it.
Dave1136 This was a stupid, miserable, foolish movie that was a total waste of time! I was expecting a little more and was very disappointed since it received so many good reviews from IMDB viewers. I wanted to give it a zero rating but I had to settle for a 1 which was the lowest allowed.This totally unfunny sci-fi spoof was made by the producers for $1.98. There were no special effects and was a one joke film that was totally BORING!!! It tied my personal worst films of all time with "Plan 9 from Outer Space" and "The Blair Witch Project". At least Plan 9 had some laughs(though unintentional).The first half of this hodgepodge was exactly like the sci-fi classic "The War of the Worlds" and the last half like other fifties & Sixties sci-fi films with "Invasion of the Body Snatchers" being the most dominant.I may be in the minority with this opinion but remember you have been forewarned!!! After watching the first 10 minutes start switching channels because you've seen it all.....and if you rented it- Lots of Luck!
