Slither
“Horror has a new face.”
Certified Crap. CrapScore 63, rated by 1 admin.
Higher CrapScores mean more entertainingly bad. How we score movies.
An alien infection turns a small town's private problems into very public body horror. James Gunn's deliberate splatter comedy piles disgusting transformations onto sharp character jokes. The creatures are impressive, the people are entertainingly overwhelmed, and the mess keeps finding new places to spread.
