Movie Title: Slugs Slugs is available for streaming or downloading. |
Seems the town of Ashton has a quandary…their plumbing is gummed up and emitting unsuitable, stank odors…perhaps you’re thinking they’re got too great red meat in their diet and saddled with those lousy low-flow toilets…and you might be upright, but that’s not the cause of their woes. No, their effort stems from an amassing army of gruesome, ginormous, voracious, mutated, carnivorous, slimy, sewer station, gastropod mollusks, otherwise known as slugs…Slugs: The Movie (1987) aka Slugs, muerte viscosa, co-written and directed by Juan Piquer Simón (Monster Island, The Pod People), features Michael Garfield (The Warriors), Santiago Álvarez (Star Knight), Philip MacHale (”Madigan Men”), Alicia Moro (Golden Balls), Emilio Linder (Amazons in the Temple of Gold), Concha Cuetos (”Onassis: The Richest Man in the World”), and John Battaglia (Mutant Man) .

The film begins the killing swiftly, as a couple in a boat derive kakked, followed fast by a bum, into two, seemingly unrelated sequences (actually, the entire movie is filled with seemingly unrelated sequences) . Anyway, the police procure the bum, or what’s left of him, along with a whole mess of slime trails. Seems reports are coming into both Mike Brady (Garfield), the city health inspector, and Don Palmer (MacHale), a sanitation and sewer engineer (i.e. sewer worker) about clogged drains and contaminated smells. Soon astronomical slugs open turning up in gardens, toilets, sinks, basements, and what have you…the unpleasant, exiguous things are everywhere, and they’re hungry…for meat, of the human kind. Quite a few people acquire nibbled up before anyone realizes what’s going on, and even then people are reluctant to beget. After some investigation, Don uncovers some pertinent information about what’s buried on the outskirts of town, something that may be linked to what’s going down. Wasting no time, Mike and Don hook up with an effeminate teacher/scientist, compose plans to gain the source and keep an ruin to the nightmare, even if it means destroying the town to do so…its all out war as our three, courageous heroes try to set aside the day (and themselves) from the oozing awe that is…the slugs!
Well I insist you what, this was probably one of the more disgusting films I’ve seen in awhile… slugs in and of themselves are glorious icky, but throw on top of that some really visceral, bloody, horrible out death sequences and you’ve got yourself a completely wrong bit of work here. I did have initial misgivings about the film primarily because of director Simón’s earlier film The Pod People (1983), a film so unpleasant that the gang at Mystery Science Theater 3000 could barely perform it watchable (it was featured on one of the episodes), but this movie was actually delightful, if you can stand the gratuitous gore. The chronicle is awkward at best, as it’s continually lurching and stumbling about like a boozehound, offering up stoopid characters I consider we were supposed to care about, but really didn’t, along with others who seemed distinguished, but really weren’t…turns out they’re usually fodder for the slugs, and there ain’t nothing execrable with that. There may not be remarkable tying all the aspects of the tale together, but Simón keeps things titillating at a inspiring dart. The acting is generally lousy throughout, but at least it was poor in the sense one could relish it if one thrives on that kind of thing. The only character I found remotely inspiring was Sheriff Reece, played by John Battaglia, only so because he was a fairly inflamed a-hole most of the time and provided most of the unintentional humor…one of my celebrated scenes, one that also exhibits the rank dialog littered throughout the film, has the Sheriff Reece and a deputy investigating the recently deceased, economically challenged man (i.e. the bum), who got his early on…the deputy is busy photographing the scene, and the sheriff tells him “I want pictures of everything, understand? “, to which the deputy replies, “Obvious Sheriff.”, followed by the sheriff yelling “Don’t obvious sheriff me unless you know your definite!” Say that a few times out loud and seek how natural it sounds. Here’s another bit…as Don is leaving to go with Mike to obtain the nest in the sewers, he says to his wife “I’ll remark you what…when I do gain succor, how about we find nekkid and obtain crazy.” Oh bruther…run home, Romeo…his delivery was hardly convincing as the actress playing his wife looked like the assist raze of an monstrous dog…and about 20 years his character’s senior. Mike’s wife (played by Kim Terry), on the other hand, was attractive hot, especially in the scene where she was wearing that slinky, shadowy lingerie…what was really comic is the during scenes featuring these two, you’ll watch the actress playing Kim grimace occasionally as the actor playing Mike delivers his lines…you might assume she’s doing it because of the slugs, but she’s really doing it because the guy playing Mike is about the worst actor in this film, and that’s saying a lot. Despite these weaknesses, the film does feature some generous production values, and, as I said earlier, some over the top, homely death scenes with a whole lot of blood…not my usually my cup of gristle, but I can delight in the work that went into the special effects. There were two outrageously frightful scenes that stood out, one in a restaurant, and another featuring a young couple bumping uglies in the girl’s parent’s bedroom, so if you’ve a old-fashioned stomach, stop away. The structure of the legend might be a mess and pudgy of annoying characters, but ending is definitely worth hanging around for as it’s satisfyingly bursting with flame broiled goodness…my only wish was the two main characters in the final sequence had traded places. If you’re involved, there is some decent nekkidness in here, at least one scene, and it didn’t feature the actress playing Don’s wife, thank heavens…

The widescreen (1.85:1) anamorphic print on this Anchor Bay Entertainment DVD release looks very bright and super, and the Dolby Digital 2.0 audio comes through clearly. There’s not noteworthy in terms of special features, except for an novel trailer for the film and liner notes by Michael Felsher in a booklet insert, the cloak featuring a 5X7 reproduction of unusual poster art for the film. If you’re involved in buying this DVD, I’d suggest doing what I did and buying the Anchor Bay DVD Horror Pack: Man’s Worst Friends, which features six films including Parasite (1982), Lucio Fulci’s The Unlit Cat (1989), Slugs: The Movie (1988), Bruno Mattei’s Rats: Night of Fear (1984), Zoltan, Hound of Dracula (1978), and Dario Argento’s The Cat o’ Nine Tails (1971) . It’s available here on the Amazon website, at a really valid mark, and cheaper than buying the individual releases.

If I learned anything from this film it is always to check to construct certain the anchovies on my salad are actually that, anchovies…and something else…musical scoring purloined from forgetable television police dramas from the 1970s is not appropriate for a fright film…
So, that’s kind of how this film plays. It is so mind boggling unpleasant that you are left speechless or laughing at its ineptitude. I suspect this is what Ed Wood may have reach up with had he been given this inexplicably titanic a budget. The fact that this film even got made is an absolute miracle. It is so abominable that I almost suspect it was made badly on purpose. However, this is a delicate example of the “Terrible = Proper” equation we so rarely stumble into. That doesn’t necessarily mean you should race out and engage this. To observe if you qualify for this movie I’ll wreck down what is already quite broken.
-SWEET MOTHER OF MULLETS!!
Is there any doubt what era this movie originated from when 80% of the actors have mullets and a third of them are women? Yea, I’m exaggerating unprejudiced a shrimp, but rest assured; this is one classy movie! With all business in the front and a party in the serve, there is no doubt this is a 1980s snack! I hear it’s a cramped salty though.
-THIS SKY-BLUE K-CAR STATIONWAGON ROCKS!
My first unusual car was a 1985 gunmetal blue Reliant-K. I drove it for 16 years until the battery died. I couldn’t witness investing in a current battery when the car was practically worthless. I gave it to Charity (it aloof ran) . In those 16 years, never did a dramatic soundtrack ever shatter out when I tooled around town. By the kill of this movie, I was busting out in laughter every time the lead character would bustle into a scene with this crazy dramatic music and his K-car. You must see to hold.
-REQUISITE NUDY SCENE WITH LOTS OF TEASERS.
Never did a movie beg for nudity more than this dauntless laugher. The movie starts out very promising; a hot babe on a boat who wants to go skinny dipping with some guy who’s TOO BUSY FISHING?! Of course, as soon as she’s about to strip the guy gets himself all chewed up by some slugs; DANG!! As the film meanders on, we eye plenty of horny, middling 80s women who can’t collect their men to ravage them. They wear all sorts of loose bathrobes and such but none of them near off. What kind of a classy, 1980s awe movie is this?! Well finally we secure a 10 second sex scene between Mr. porno-mullet and horny, “parents aren’t home”, bipolar daughter. Miniature is left to the imagination here (or anywhere else in the movie) and we bag to glimpse plenty. Heck, there’s even some beefcake for the ladies compliments of Mr. porno-mullet. But you know what happens to impish children in panic movies don’t you?
-THIS HAM HAS A FIST THE SIZE OF MY HEAD!!
“Slugs” might be the finest example of ham-handed gore you will ever watch. I felt like the director was going to have a PE if he didn’t earn to do his gore scenes; “OK, that’s enough shots of the K-car, LETS DO ANOTHER GORE SHOT!!!” Well, the Director’s clear spastic teenage worship for gore appears as such. But I must admit, it was so ridiculously timed and executed that I couldn’t wait on but giggle with glee! We accumulate more inexplicable spewage than you could imagine. When I finally stopped laughing, all I could mediate was; “WTF was that all about? “
-BOOM!!! HEH, HEH, HEH!!! BOOOOMM!!
The entire movie was really filmed on a shoestring so all the money could be outmoded for gore and explosions. We salvage a lot of Shriek in “Slugs”. The best share of this is why the explosions happen. The script in this film actually acknowledges the stupidity of the explosions, yet explosions will not be denied. These are some broad Hollywood fireballs too. You’d be amazed how many explosive are kept in a greenhouse. This might be the one thing that makes me suspect intentional sabotage of this film for comedic purposes.
-I DON’T HAVE A Predicament WITH DUBBING, BUT…
Some of the most horrendous dubbing you could ever imagine takes area in “Slugs”. You might ask at this point; EK, I view this was an American film? ” and you would be right. But when your actors are stoned out of their minds and can’t yell, what are you gonna do? Of course, that’s mean speculation on my share. However, when you behold a scene with mostly close-ups, dubbed worse than any Asian film, you will be forced to diagram your possess conclusions. I have to say, I laughed my (expletive) off!
-WHAT ABOUT THOSE SLUGS EK?
The slugs in “Slugs” might be the one thing that impressed me the most. First: I’ve never seen such mountainous slugs in my life, and they are true slugs. Second: I’ve never seen so many giant slugs in my life; hats of to the slug wranglers. As impressed with the scale and numbers of these buggers, I could never figure out how they filled a room so mercurial when they always moved “at a snails stagger”. The best piece is when an steady animatronics slug is used; don’t go breaking the budget fellas!
-ACTORS (AS IF WE CARE) .
Do you really want me to name these people? That’s what IMDB is for. But I have to say, these people did an admirable job considering they had to know this movie was going to blow chunks. Yet, they all were loyal troopers, rolling around in those slugs and getting all messed up in slop. There was a qualified hint of sincerity in our heroes, Mr. K-car and his buddy, Joe Plumber (Tee hee!) . “Slugs” actually had a sizable cast of character that was mostly meaningless to the plot; wait… …what site? Anyway, some characters added to the body count while others provided people to do the screaming at the carnage. They all preserve the goofy mood going for obvious.
-IF ONLY THEY HAD ABBA.
Having Abba do the soundtrack of a awe movie might have been funnier than this, maybe. Obviously I view the musical track was comical beyond the K-car theme song. I’ve heard of stock footage, but is there such a thing as “Stock Music”? I reflect that’s what we have here. I’m definite somebody could succor me out with that one. Regardless, it was appropriately sinister in fitting with the rest of the aspects of “Slugs”.
-THE WORST FILM I’D EVER RECOMMEND.
Make no mistake; this is an poor movie. If its intentions were to be the best “so unpleasant its ample” film then it would be pure genius only to be rivaled by Ed Wood himself (who did it by mistake) . I have to own the Director had “poor” on the mind when he made this. All I can say is that the final affect is successful at making me laugh about 20 times throughout the movie. Whether this was the desired outcome matters not. My recommendation to you is this; rent “Slugs”, order some pizza, invite over a couple of end friends (have them bring some beverages) and have your acquire MST3000 party. I’m not the first to allude to the notion, but “slugs” is ripe for immense mockery and hilarity.
