- Citazioni
Carlos: Hey, I just got an idea. Have any of you guys ever heard of a Golem?
Scott: What are you talking about?
Mark: A what?
Carlos: A Golem. In my religious studies at Loyola we talked basics of the Jewish religion as a part of our course.
Scott: So?
Carlos: So, Jewish legends from the Middle Ages tell of various persons with the power to create a Golem: a monster made out of clay given life from the proper combination of the Hebrew letters from the divine name. The most famous of these creators was a Rabbi named Judah Loew from Prague who lived from 1512 to 1609. He supposedly created a Golem to avenge the enemies of his followers.
Scott: What does that got to do with us?
Carlos: Why not make our own Golem?
Mark: Hey, only make it out of human parts or animal parts or whatever.
Scott: Wow! What an experiment!
Mark: And we're not responsible for what it does!
Scott: It is not human!
Mark: It does not exist! Therefore, there are no legal hassles!
Carlos: We could get parts at your medical school, Scott.
Scott: I don't know. It might not be that easy. I know a guy who works in the city morgue though.
Mark: My friend Wally is a veterinarian. I could talk to him about getting animal parts.
Scott: We can use the garage out back as our lab.
Carlos: When do we start?
Mark: Tonight. We start tonight!

1/2 (out of 4)
A man's girlfriend is brutally murdered by thugs so his friends talk him into building a golem. They end up naming the golem Frankie (after Frankenstein) and soon they have him killing some bad guys but not long into his mission he falls in love with a woman who also loves him.
This here turned out to be one of Andy Milligan's final pictures and it's clear that the director was turning out awful movies in this late period just like he was in his early days. MONTROSITY is thankfully so awful that you can actually get some mild entertainment out of it. With that said, that incredibly horrid Milligan pacing is on hand and keeps it from being better.
The film is only going to appeal to fans of Milligan or those who enjoy awful movies. On a technical level this film is pretty awful with some of the worst editing that you're ever going to see. Even worse is some of the performances, which are just downright embarrassing. This here is especially true during the scenes where the three friends are slap-happy when they decide to make this golem. The way they carry on is just stupid and what's even worse is the "It's Alive!!!" yet, which is of course paying homage to James Whale's FRANKENSTEIN.
The love story involving the woman is just strange to say the least. There are some incredible campy moments throughout the picture including the actual look of the monster. He really looks like Ronald McDonald gone really bad with the red hair and the really bad looking fake eyeball hanging out. The dialogue is also extremely awful but leads to a few laughs. This Milligan picture also offers up some gore, which is something we didn't normally get.
MONSTROSITY actually lives up to its title. At 93 minutes the film drags really bad and this here keeps the film from being more entertaining.
