The Worst Film Ever

Not sure how, but this is easily one of the best movies all summer. Multiple levels of funny, never takes itself seriously, super colorful, and creative.

Exactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.

Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable

The title seems to place BEASTIES among the ranks of GREMLINS and GHOULIES, but there's really little to no similarity. The 99-cent alien "beasties" are really of little concern here, and an anarchistic punk cult is actually the main focus.That being said, the parts of the film containing the "beasties" are much more entertaining. The acting is uniformly horrific, but the bespectacled hero and the punk Hammerhead stand out the most. The hero spouts deadpan, faux-scientific lines throughout, simultaneously swooning one of the on screen female characters and making everyone watching the film groan and roll their eyes.It begins to drag a lot when the punk cult is given the main role, and even the director seemed to notice this, as he introduces random characters that do nothing but run around and get scared by things to break up the monotony of the cult scenes. But the first 70 minutes is still filled with terrible fight choreography, catfights to the death, a crappy goth-rock band, and cheap aliens getting hit with frying pans. Needless to say, it's a good time.In the last ten minutes, the writer suddenly had delusions of grandeur, introducing twist after twist as to why the "beasties" exist. I'm still not sure how the main character, the aliens and the punk cult all intertwine, but I'm fairly confident nobody involved in the film did either. Some of the writing here was actually mildly clever; too bad it was wasted on such a dump of a film.Not a bad film classic, but actually comes close. Cheese lovers will have a slight feast.

Bear with me I don't know to much about this movie but i will try to explan it. Six young people on a triple date one being a blind date find Creature eggs then find out little monsters are running around. The creatures are never called Beasties but unlike hobgoblins they appear early in the movie and the woman on the cover is in the movie even if it's for a few minutes. There's a subplot with an underground satanic gang besides a two minute scene they don't show up it till 30 Min's in then the whole movie becomes about the teens fighting the evil gang and it's leader you almost forget about beasties. It's a bad movie thats hard to follow it's story lines can't go together it reminds of hobgoblin's on how cheesy it is.

Steve & his actors really tried hard.The special effects ROCK ! The women are gorgeous. One scream queen in particular, Suzanne Brewer(CORRECT SPELLING) and i had history after this film,She mad a flick with me called Snake Bite(now called She Bites and still not released.) ! Fresno as a town has been a mecca for filmmakers THEN and now ! Steve,think about making another film - maybe about nightclubs from disco-era. The acting came and went,sometimes natural,Sometimes PLAN 9 worthy.David Decouteau could have promoted this little better,but the cover was wild.So,What do we have: A COOL COVER,AWESOME EFFECTS,PRETTY WOMEN AND A MISSED Opportunity---NOW REALIZED .

When I picked up the box of "Beasties" in a Mom-and-Pop video store, I read that it was making this out to be a cross between "Back to the Future" and "Gremlins". I knew immediately not to fall for this, but upon renting the movie I found that this is partially true. The problem here is that this is without a fun feel, and it's not scary either. I actually do want to recommend this for a few reasons, but I'm not sure who I'd be recommending it to. Odd, huh? Anyway, it has a fairly interesting premise, and some surprises that I wouldn't want to spoil. Still, my favorite part was the club scene with a performance by a really cool-sounding deathrock band. Hey, if you're bored and dig cheap horror movies, what do you have to lose other than a couple bucks for the price of a rental?
