Snatchers

Snatchers may not bring home top scores neither does it try to. It's campy, gory, dumb and fun. The actors are overall great and the lead role played by Mary Nepi does an excellent job! Will most definitely keep an eye out for more of her (hopefully) upcoming roles. I would give it 6.5 but since that's not an option I will settle for 6. Absolutely worth a watch if you like a mix of comedy and gore.

Remember when movies were fun and didn't preach present day politics with varying degrees of woke narratives? I didn't mind it at first, but eventually it became the norm. Crafting a story filled with fun likable characters seemed to be a chore and a burden to get through, after peppering social messages throughout.

By simply having a story that stays away from that made this movie refreshing and delightful. Every one of the diverse cast of characters were likeable and fun & the story was simple escapism reminding me of teen comedies of the early 2000s.

Yes the story is silly but it's well acted and all the cast has good chemistry together. I'll be following them all in the future.

I wasn't expecting too much from this movie, horror and comedy mixed together isn't really the genre where you find a lot of gems. But in all fairness I was pretty surprised by the outcome. I had more laughs then with a standard comedy so for that alone it's worth the detour. The "lobster in the neck" had me in tears, that's going to be a cult phrase, for sure in my entourage. Storywise it is what it is, some people are entertained by this kind of stories (I was for sure), others will think it's ridiculous. The horror wasn't bad at all, the acting neither, but the humoristic touch is what makes this movie stand out from the rest. I recommend this movie, especially if you're a stoner and like an odd and weird story, nothing to take too seriously.

When horny teens have sex for the first time then the girl accidentally gets pregnant and gives birth, it's a tragedy. But what if it all happened in just two days and the offspring was a resurrected Mayan monster? That's the whole idea of the film and, spoiler alert, the title does not refer to a verb. But it's fun, with the usual tropes of the horror movies all present, but contextualized in an entertaining way. Is it perfect? Hell no! But I've seen a lot of horror comedies that are not even close to the level of hilarity of this. If it have had just a little bit more budget, the gore would have complemented perfectly the plot. As such, it was just a lot of blood and two horrifying monsters.

If you like tongue in cheek horror, this is a film you should probably watch.

First, everyone is allowed to have their own opinion so when you read the review by arfdawg-17 remember that. I am not a member of the studio, rather a fan of cheeky small film studio greats, which this is definitely one of. Despite the previous mentioned review I decided to watch it. It was definitely not what he mentioned it was. I found it to be a campy, semi serious, teenage "horror" movie worthy of taking the time to enjoy. Watching it made me think of Evil Aliens, Feast and other similar movies. It was not perfect, but it was a fun ride, well acted for the new cast that starred, with a fresh new take on alien invasions. I watched this entire thing, enjoyed every moment of it and had fun at the multiple new and unexpected moments while the movie poked fun at old tropes.
