Field Freak

This is the most ridiculous movie. It's terrible, but they lean into the absurdity. Very enjoyable!

I don't know why they re-titled this in Germany, but it's called "Monster Outside" there. I mean yes, there is a "monster" outside, but Field Freak would have worked too, don't you think? But back to this and boy is this a freak. And to really like this, you have to be a "freak" too. Or a strange fellow if this is more to your liking.

The movie here is really bad! So hopefully you didn't just see my rating and went "not helpful". If I was rating just the movie as it's quality, I should have given it a 1/10. But this is so mental, that it actually works. Just not as a horror movie, rather like a comedy. A not intended comedy. Ed Woods would be proud and not because it plays in the woods (lame joke you say? Wait until you see the movie and the "monster"!! ... just saying ...)

One part of me is simply bewildered that anyone would waste their time making this film. Then another part of me is simply bewildered that I would waste my time watching this film. I get that it's a spoof - but it's a really, really bad spoof. Really bad. And the thing is that it doesn't suck you in by starting out interesting or good or anything. You know from the start - from the very first lines of dialogue - from the very first moments - that this is bad, and that nobody in this can act. Not the family of three who are "terrorized" by this guy in a rubber monster costume. Not the old weird guy who runs a home made root beer stand. Not the pest control guy who's convinced that the family's dealing with a pack of rabid beavers. Nobody in this can act. Which is why they're all complete and total unknowns. I don't want to waste any more of my time by going into the "plot." Suffice to say that this is horrible. Just horrible. (1/10)

Charles and his wife Linda and son Lonnie move to a rented cabin so he can finish his book. Seems like no one rents the place, as there is 'something in the fields". And they come across an old hand (Ned) who restates the message. In the roles, no one will believe Charles is that dumb or naive with a rosy outlook on everything. Initially he not only seems to say his words from the script, but also stage direction. Things go bump in the night, so he calls a pest exterminator, who quickly decides it is beavers, and then rabid beavers. Never underestimate a rabid beaver. And one morning, Lonnie says he was kept up by noises coming from the bedroom. Well, that was beaver business! Everything is played to the point of absurdity, including terrible acting although that might be the only real part of the movie. The movie is an absurd comedy, and the creature is so badly done, it is also over the top. It is simply mindless entertainment and will soon be forgotten. There seems to be a certain earnestness in making a bad movie.

How in the world did this movie Garner a 3 rating? There must have been a lot of shill reviews on here from the movie maker. This lead actor is the single worst actor I've ever seen in my life and that's with watching a lot of these garbage movies I say that. He is beneath the bottom of the barrel. Of all the movies I've watched with a low budget this is the worst costume for a creature in history...it looks like they went to Goodwill and and bought it. Its very loose. Doesnt fit and looks like a 12 year girl made it in home -ec class ...it is a national embarrassment ...this movie is horrendous. the dialogue, the writing, the illogic. Where do they find these horrible horrible actors to put in these movies? How do they get agents and a Sag card? How??? They are worse than High School actors in a school play. Wow
