Creature

Creature-2011 took me to bloody Heaven. Creature meets-jour picture expectations and exceeds them.Creature is an unexpected ample, fulfilling treat. The legend of gluttonous Lockjaw, the terror with teeth, provides ambrosial pabulum for any horrorhead. Hell, other film fans might relish it too. Creature is an infamous cineplex flop, for hardly anyone partook. But, screw the sizzle, son. This meaty piece has steak. And, alligator god Lockjaw deserves a cult following. Eat it up on DVD dee-rectly.Creature has all of the ingredients that a genre fan could crave. This cut is one beautiful hard-R. This horror tale had all of the goodies in plenty, plus some surprises. I am not even going into detail, not going to flesh things out. I want potential viewers shocked, amazed, and satisfied like they are when watching for the first time 2001 Maniacs, The Devil's Rejects, or Piranha 3D. Or, this Louisiana gator tale's freaky cousin Hatchet. I want horror followers to testify "Holy crap! I didn't know that they made such films anymore! It's the drive-in in the privacy of my own home." And, this film looks great. Before the camera are Sid Haig (the man, the legend), Pruitt Taylor Vince (Constantine), Amanda Fuller (Red, White, & Blue), Lauren Schneider (also Red, White, & Blue), and Serinda Swan (Smallville). Everyone else is good too. (BTW, Swan resembles Megan Fox so strongly that I was sure that she was Fox under a different name; she even has a tatoo of script along her side; but, imdb indicates separate identities).I want to gush like a dismemberment about Creature. Feature this creature at your next horror partaking. I loved it.

I'm a sucker for horror movies. Loved it.

Not a fan of the creature makeup. Not great actors. Found out Sig Haig was in it & bought it on a whim

Had not seen before - liked a lot

This is an old school 80s type horror flick that uses practical gore effects and a creature that isn't CGI. The monster is a guy in a creature costume and it looks great, and the film style might appeal to fans of 70s and 80s horror. The film deals with an incestuous relationship between a brother and sister. When the brother's bride (his sister) is killed and eaten by a monster alligator, the guy finds the alligator in its cavern. He then kills the alligator and eats everything in the creatures cave and this includes his sisters remains. When he does this, this somehow transforms him into an alligator man monster, and he still roams the swamps and forests. When a small group of people venture into his area, he begins knocking them off along with others that are around there.This film has a pretty good plot. It's got nudity, plenty of violence, and it gets kind of funny and sleazy at times when it deals with that backwoods incestuous family line. The film is easy to follow, but it does get a little talky at times during the first half of the film. Later on, the films pace really picks up and it gets fast and exciting; although some may be bored a little before then because of some talky parts that some may think are unnecessary. If the entire movie had the fast pace that occurs later on, it would've been a much better film. If you want sex and nudity, it has some good scenes. There's a full frontal scene in the beginning, as well as some topless scenes that includes a lesbian scene. As for the gore, the goriest scene in the film is the flashback part involving the alligator eating the bride in the cavern, but some may disappointed because the movie doesn't maintain this level of gore throughout the film. The body count is good, but some deaths are off screen; and with some of the other kills, you get to see some blood but not a lot. The movie has good scenery and atmosphere, and the directing and acting are pretty good. Some mainstream horror fans might like it and some won't, but I think the film is geared more towards fans of 70s and 80s horror.The DVD quality looks great. The brightness is fine, and it has excellent color, contrast, and sharpness. The DVD also has animation and music with its menu and chapter stops.

Very underrated horror movie

Bigfoot has a baby with an alligator(not actually what happens; just a physical description of the monster) and out pops Lockjaw, a seriously bad mutant with a taste for human flesh. This movie is very gory and scary and some parts of it are surprisingly good. Sid Haig(The Devil's Rejects) is easily recognizable. This is not high budget but they did do a good job with what they were given.

The video has its (had its) general cultish appeal, but its value left nothing more than that. A low budget 'scary' flick, it was kind of ok, but not that I would ever feel the need to watch it again. The token was that of Amanda (Kristen Baxter) Fuller, and looking at her 'other' works. But beyond the movie cover description of such, the idea of hoping for 'something' titillating, was 'only' what was embellished in the description of the movie. Overall, it was dry and predictable, and the girl to girl part, was really 'a yawn.' It was worth a try given that it was a 'very inexpensive' video, so I lost nothing but my mind, and a 'few' dollars when 'creature' took away 90 minutes of my life I wont ever get back.
