There hadn't been a major, balls-out creature feature made like that in a while. They just went with it, played it straight, and made a real bad good movie.

The original has some of that same stuff going on, but the remake beats it by a mile by going straight balls to the wall for its entire runtime. Didn't like its sequel much - Piranha 3DD. Cujo is not really good. However, shameless plug coming, it did help me write one of my better reviews. <br /><br />http://dellonmovies.blogspot.com/2011/10/cujo.htmlDellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05634519605152190304noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3990332416861666709.post-34303324782893743442016-10-15T06:38:36.150-05:002016-10-15T06:38:36.150-05:00They're all very stupid.They're all very stupid.Brittani Burnhamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07975067259283007280noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3990332416861666709.post-76716478938740900502016-10-15T02:23:16.873-05:002016-10-15T02:23:16.873-05:00I haven't seen any of these, but they seem fun...I haven't seen any of these, but they seem fun to watch.

I saw the original Piranha and it is bad. This was around the same time when I watched a movie about a giant turtle (TV movie and not Japanese) and a giant Croc that, when a baby, was flushed down the toilet but lived and due to sewage waste grew horribly massive. I like Tremors...it's my guilty pleasure and I never thought of it as an amazing film but as a b movie flick that is fun to watch Birgithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09439720285857050428noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3990332416861666709.post-44188302058558789912016-10-13T11:49:31.330-05:002016-10-13T11:49:31.330-05:00Same.

I saw it on TV and while I stuck with it to the end there was a lot of leaving the room and glancing back in occasionally at the screen involved.<br /><br />A couple of people had praised Tremors to the sky as clever and different so I gave it a try. I didn't share their high opinion but it was goofy in a sort of fun way. Once was more than enough though.<br /><br />This isn't really my avenue of viewing though when I was looking for films it somehow turned out I'd seen far more of them than I thought I had over the years. I'm not going to pretend any of these are good films, they're crap though my bonus is fun because of the uniqueness of its cast.<br /><br />Tentacles (1977)-Balderdash about a killer octopus terrorizing a resort town, and not just in the sea but on land!!! Three Oscar winners, Henry Fonda, John Huston & Shelley Winters, and several other respected performers collect a paycheck.<br /><br />Empire of the Ants (1977)-Shady real estate agent Joan Collins and a bunch of potential suckers for her latest scheme land on an island in the Florida Everglades that thanks to toxic waste has been overtaken by giant mutant killer ants!! Crunch and munch.<br /><br />Night of the Lepus (1972)-Bizarre cheapie about a genetic experiment gone wrong. Killer rabbits terrorize the countryside!! Hilarity ensues. Poor Janet Leigh from Psycho to this in only a dozen years!<br /><br />Bonus-Killer Bees (1974)-Young man (Edward Albert) brings his fiancée (Kate Jackson) home to his family’s vineyard to meet the matriarch of his clan Madame Maria von Bohlen (Gloria Swanson), who has a strange bond with the bee colony that is the backbone of the family business. Worth catching for the cast alone. This is somewhat out of the perimeter since it was a TV Movie of the Week but it’s surely the best movie on the list! joel65913https://www.blogger.com/profile/14526657073681774683noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3990332416861666709.post-68025948897942492422016-10-13T08:10:13.331-05:002016-10-13T08:10:13.331-05:00When I was younger, everyone was SO into Tremors, ...When I was younger, everyone was SO into Tremors, but I never was.Danielhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11480863610135936930noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3990332416861666709.post-51831727105359575672016-10-13T08:02:42.815-05:002016-10-13T08:02:42.815-05:00You haven't seen Tremors?
