Touches You

I like movies that are aware of what they are selling... without [any] greater aspirations than to make people laugh and that's it.

The performances transcend the film's tropes, grounding it in characters that feel more complete than this subgenre often produces.

While it doesn't offer any answers, it both thrills and makes you think.

A deadly and predatory genetically engineered mutant (James L. Miles in a funky, if hokey rubber suit) made up of the DNA of various donors escapes from a lab so it can hunt down and kill the male donors while attempting to mate with the female ones. Meanwhile, nefarious lab head Donald Brady (token semi-name Christopher Mitchum, who just barely manages to retain his dignity) wants to capture the beast for his own evil reasons. Boy, does this hilariously horrendous honey possess all the right wrong stuff to qualify as a real four-star stinkeroonie: Ham-fisted (mis)direction by Steve Latshaw (who also co-wrote the supremely silly script), terrible acting from a lame no-name cast, tacky gore, cut-rate (far from) special effects, rusty tin-eared dialogue (sample line: "He can smell you boys -- be careful"), a mechanically bouncy synthesizer score, and ineptly staged monster attack scenes. Naturally, we also get a generous serving of yummy (and utterly gratuitous) bare distaff skin. Florida exploitation cinema legend William Grefe has a funny bit as loudmouth drunk Mr. Babb. An absolute schlocky hoot.

This is a good cheesy B-movie. A monster is running around eating people up. The creature looks great but the acting is bad. There was one point in the movie when i didn't even know what was going on. That was one of the only down sides. It was like they just gave the scrip to someone else and told them to write. The monster looks like a gorilla with green scales and sharp teeth. A great Bmovie! Over all i enjoyed this movie very much and i am happy to have added it to my collection. In case you want to buy this movie on DVD go to Amazon.com. Thats were i bought my copy, I don't think they sell it in stores.

Contains a little blood, no boobs n' fluff. An evil corporation (there's no other kind) attempts to capture one of their experiments, which is running around a big city killing men and raping women. Of course, a thoroughly uninteresting hero steps up to put a stop to the violent creature. - - - This is completely DTV material. Latshaw strikes again with this forgettable creature feature that fills the bare minimum requirements of action and stupid nonsense, but is a bit too light on the sleaze to be worth the time. There are some decent moments throughout, but no sign of tension or a well thought out plot. About the only thing that stands out is the fantastic looking creature suit. Compare that with the suit used in Ray's "Biohazard" and you can see where the minuscule funds went... it sure wasn't the actors.*1/2 out of 4

So many questions drifted through my head while watching "Biohazard: The Alien Force". Why is an alien force referenced in the title of the film, yet no aliens appear in this movie? Why does Steve Zurk, playing the protagonist Mike Reardon, look disconcertingly like David Hasslehoff's brother? Who dressed him? Why does the bed of a truck burst into flames after the vehicle bumps into a tree? Why does a rocket not markedly damage a car after a direct hit? Why do none of the characters in the movie seem to have any peripheral vision? Who created the titles and special effects, and why they ever employed to begin with? Lastly, how could this movie's production have concluded without the filmmakers hiding in exile?This is such a sublimely awful movie it's hard to describe. There are far too many moments of unintended hilarity to describe in this short passage. Suffice to say, this film gets more laughs than just about any comedy out there you could find. I heartily recommend this film to any fan of campy cinema.
