Meatball Machine

For fans of Troma or the Cyberpunk genre mixed with a little blood shed then this film for you! There is a good amount of blood shed within the confines of this film, also the effects can be impressionable and awesome. The plot is ridiculous and refreshing, not being chained down to what we as audiences are expectant of from films these days.

Also notable are the little aliens, who I found cute. All in all, it's a good film for fans of the genre. Also recommended are films such as Tetsuo:The Iron Man and Versus for that weird Japanese film approach, filled with wonderful obscurity and bloodshed. Of course, seeing this film you should already have knowledge of the two.

Alien parasites infect humans, trigger the growth of massive bio-cyber weapons, and then use the grotesquely mutated hosts in death-matches that cumulate with the victorious host tearing out and devouring the losing parasite. Nothing makes much sense, and the entire premise seems to be an excuse for trippy-drippy special effects, monstrous prosthetics, and preposterous geysers of slime and blood. Unlike the equally nasty 'Tetsuo: The Iron Man' (1989), this is not an artsy experimental film but rather a typical gruesome, exploitive splatter-fest. If that's what spins your propellor, 'Meatball Machine' delivers, if not, you won't last the first couple of minutes. The final scene (and sequel setup) is existentially amusing. Watched on Tubi with English subtitles.

MEATBALL MACHINE is a tale of the trials and tribulations of young love. It's also about alien parasites that latch onto human hosts, drill out their eyeballs, and assimilate / mutate their organs, turning them into weapons of mass destruction.

Our young heroes are caught up in an epic struggle between warring extraterrestrial entities bent on decimating each other in the messiest, gushiest ways possible.

Will true love prevail, or will the Necroborgs inherit the Earth?

This bizarre movie is an excellent example of the triumph of imagination over budgetary limitations...

Such a Disappointment, unlike Tokyo Gore Police, Tetsuo The iron man, Machine Girl and Robo Geisha, This is Just a little Dispointing, 5/10.

To be honest,the gore is a More gory, but Story is just meh,

This film plays like a full-length, color Tetsuo the Iron Man. As with that film, I suspect that viewers who are not Japanese (like me) are missing some important cultural resonance.

What I, the gaijin, saw was a somewhat entertaining gore/splatter film with some uniquely Japanese body horror elements. (Japanese body horror often seems to involve growing massive new parts that may be made of non-organic materials).

I wasn't, like, on the edge of my seat or anything, but the fight scenes are pretty great.

It's free on Amazon right now, which is about what you'd want to pay for it.
