Scanialara You won't be disappointed!

filippaberry84 I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.

Portia Hilton Blistering performances.

Sienna-Rose Mclaughlin The movie really just wants to entertain people.

tvsgael2-2 I often laugh out loud when I read reviews that are completely by uneducated cheeseheads (those who's vocabulary consists of one word to describe a movie like this.. cheese. To fully appreciate this film, you to look at it's history regarding uncut, cut, good print, bad print, etc. I was very frustrated trying to find a great, full screen print of this movie until I found it on AMC, but of course it was heavily cut. So I took scenes from two other sources that were uncut, but not as good quality, and ' Frankensteined' a print that I could appreciate for all it's glory, something that nobody reviewing this film can fully understand, and that's why they write based on ignorance.

brad kittleson If you are going to sit down to watch this expecting some top notch special effects, intense acting, and a character driven plot, you deserve to be disappointed. Movies like this cannot conceal what they are or mislead people, so to criticize it for being cheap, hokey, and cheesy is sort like complaining that Star Wars takes place in outer space.If you are hoping to be entertained, then this movie won't let you down! A reminder of how creepy these old movies can be if you were lucky enough to see it when you were under age 12, movies like this always benefit most when the viewer can suspend their cynicism and imagine they are 10 years old. The lack of any sets used in the film is probably because the actors chewed all the scenery, the gore, for its time, was pretty darn shocking, and the monsters are somehow easily destroyed by the same thing they eat.Yes, skeletons shouldn't remain whole when the flesh is eaten off them. True, CGI effects blow away the lousy FX. Of course, a woman wouldn't tear off her shirt while the men stood by, still in their shirts and gawking when someone needed makeshift bandages. And I agree, Nazi scientists were not hiding out on Long Island in the 1960's. If you can accept these facts, and forgive the movie in spite of them (and many, many other similar flaws), you won't be let down for one second! Also, the song playing on the transistor radio in the opening scene, performed by a band called "The Teen Killers" is so catchy you won't stop whistling it for weeks!!!

randylanders I'd never heard of this flick until I managed to catch it late night (okay, early, early morning) on AMC. I must admit, that despite some of its cute hokeyness--three out of the four females manage to find away to strip down to their bra or less, mad scientist whose motives are muddled--and some outright implausibilities--a sea plane and a cabin tent which manage not to get blown away during a hurricane--it was vastly entertaining. I simply refused to go to bed until I watched the thing to the very predictable evening, but that to me is the mark of an entertaining movie. Sit down with a bag of popcorn, put on your suspension of disbelief caps, and enjoy this one!

ferbs54 Truth to tell, I had not heard of this movie until recently, but after reading several laudatory reviews in various film books, and after hearing a coworker buddy of mine rave about it, I quickly put it at the very top of my list of films to rent. And boy, am I ever glad I did! "The Flesh Eaters" (1964), as it turns out, is nothing less than a horror minimasterpiece; a genuine sleeper whose relative obscurity may soon change, thanks to this crisp-looking DVD from the fine folks at Dark Sky. In it, an alcoholic actress, her hotty blonde assistant and their hunky-dude plane pilot are forced to land on a barren island near NY's Long Island, right before a hurricane. There, they encounter a scientist played by Martin Kosleck, who is working with the teensy critters that give this film its name. Kosleck, a German Jew who nonetheless excelled at portraying weasly Nazi types throughout the '40s, is superb in the lead role, but then again, all the actors in this film are surprisingly fine. The film also boasts beautiful, high-contrast B&W photography, utilizing bizarre camera angles and point-of-view shots; some highly effective gross-out scenes; and some truly original-looking monsters, both large and small. The film gets wilder and wilder as it proceeds,and offers some real surprises toward the end. Thus, this little independent shocker is just dynamite, and a real find for the jaded horror fan. It's also suitable for the kiddies...say, from 10 and up. It'll warp them a little, but they won't soon forget it, and will probably rave about it to THEIR coworkers one day...
