Flesh-Eating Mothers

I am a B-Horror Movie junkie. I am an avid collector of blood-soaked schlock. Bad horror movies, in my eyes, "complete the circle" (its so bad it becomes good again by circling back up the quality loop) "Flesh Eating Mothers" is one of the only movies that I've ever seen that pulls a 520 on said loop. It is so bad that it surpasses the good mark and circles back down to the very bottom. I don't know how it did it, but it sure did. The film had all the tools to be a great cheesy horror flick. An 'out there' premise incorporating zombies, some corny-yet-amusing humor, sex, violence...in its respective field, it should have been a homerun! However, the very things that could have made it into a good-bad movie ultimately lead to its demise. The script became too corny, the plot became way too drawn out, the sex and violence became very sparse, and the action was just too too bad. It is up there with the most painfully long 89 minutes in film history.

As a lover of bad film, I cannot turn those brave enough to pop this one into their players away. By all means, see it so that you may form your own opinions. Just don't say I didn't warn you.

One can truthfully say that Flesh Eating Mothers is one of the worst horror movies ever written, directed, and acted. But one can also say that for pure camp enjoyment, there are few movies that are its equal. Insane, irreverent, and utterly incredible, Flesh Eating Mothers is a must-see for all those who enjoy watching awful movies more than they enjoy seeing good ones.

This is a fine example of bad acting and effects taken to just the right extreme to make for a cult classic! There's one bad line after another to make you chuckle and of course plenty of scenes that make you say "What the heck was that?" or "Wait a minute...what just happened?". The plot is good...a sexually transmitted disease is spread around town by the local gigolo which is only effective in women who have had children. The result? Biddies that bite! This little gem leaves very little to the imagination arms are chewed off, babies are eaten, and penises are devoured! A lot of fun...great to watch while you're drinking!

Well, this film has pretty much everything you would probably expect in a movie called "Flesh Eating Mothers". It has poor effects, a weak story, and of course, there are some AMAZINGLY bad actors. However, this doesn't necessarily mean that this is a bad movie. In fact, it's rather funny at times, and some of these laughs even seemed to be intentional. In fact, if it wasn't for a predictable and generally dull conclusion, I'd probably recommend this to people. As it is, it's not a bad way to kill 90 minutes, especially if you like low-budget stupidity.

The mothers of a small town that have been sleeping around find themselves infected with a virus that causes them to want to eat their children. Just awful film features a romance sub-plot involving a midget and a rather tall female, hardly any on screen deaths, cartoonish effects, and an awful sense of humor. What they could have done with this premise.......

Unrated; Graphic Violence.
