The Mildew from Planet Xonader

Like the other reviewer said the official description says nothing about comedy, but with the title "The Mildew from Planet Xonader" what do you expect. At least it doesn't take itself seriously. Gore, splattering goo, bad lines... Fun to watch, ONCE, but not worth owning.

I do see two other reviews here, both of which managed to praise this production, so here I am, ready to ruin everything.

I am not a big fan of gore, and this one has plenty of it, I do appreciate a good low sci fi horror, yet I feel it is not the case here, and had a serious problem with the acting and writing. True, it did seem that The Mildew was not supposed to be taken seriously, and pays homage to other such movies, but I do think they could have managed a whole lot more if they went the proper wdirection. It is more like Machete but focusing mainly on gore and overreacting without actually having anything to offer.

For me it is a definite No, but strangely enough I do see how others might find it appealing. Just be warned, it is 80% green liquid, 10% screams and 10% close ups of annoying laughter.

Cheers!

I just think that The Mildew from Planet Xonader is an excellent example of a tribute to all those rediculous experiment gone wrong kind of B movies, only difference is that this one is covered with tons and tons of green slime and extreme gore. Luckily for most viewers this is a rare case of an english spoken production from Necrostorm, most of all their movies are spoken in italian. I won't spoil anything about the story but... you guys know these kind of movies, i've been watching it for an half hour at the moment and i'm enjoying the hell out of it. If you call yourself a gorehound, BUY this movie. Sit back and enjoy the show.

This is trash. Glorious, awkwardly acted and cut and ultra gory trash. Fans of the original Evil Dead, Story Of Ricky and Bad Taste will enjoy this.

Regular movie aficionados might have some...problems. ;-)

Well, what to say about this?

To give this a review I first have to set the frame for the review. You can't compare this to "ordinary" movies. This is a splatter-comedy spoof-sorta-thing which gives plenty of nods to others before it and it's very low budget of course. I do appreciate what they did with their budget though, especially the SFX-team.

If you like Braindead, Street Trash, Bad Taste, Death Warmed Up, Troma films and.... well you see where I'm going with this, you probably should check this out.

The main keeping of this film is the effects themselves. It contains everything you could wish for. Mildew turning people to zombies (kind of), exploding body parts, colourful ooze, melting skin, gushing blood and whatnot. There is really no consistency in what the aforementioned mildew can do.

The dialog is just all over the place with the colonel delivering some relly cliché lines from start to finish. Acting is so so and the actions of the characters, considering what happens in the lab, are just completely out the window.

You really have to take this film for what it is. It's a splatter roller coaster comedy.

I give it a 4 because at least it was entertaining in it's own hilarious way.
