Film Dope

Humanoids From the Deep

Monster

1980

USA

Genetic experiments gone awry send marauding lewd and lascivious beasties into a quiet fishing town.

What it says on the tin. The ultimate drive-in movie - bad acting, oodles of gratuitous nudity and violence often at the same time. Yet, a classy James Horner score and super creatures courtesy of make-up genius Rob Bottin and his crew elevate this one. A guilty pleasure.

We understand Rob has become a California realtor - this ranks as the greatest loss to cinema IMHO.
