Slither

 

USA / Canada 2006, 96 minutes
Dir. James Gunn
Rating: [R16]
Genres: Horror, Comedy / Invaders, Walking Dead, Splatter

 

Aroview: The small American town of Wheelsy is visited by a slithery space squid, which sends a variety of parasitic slugs out to invade the bodies of the unassuming populace, who are then transformed into zombie-like helpers in service of the greater conquest.

It's a big-budget B-movie parody that boasts an expert knowledge of the horror-comedy genre, striking a balance between eye-popping gore (and slime) and smile-inducing dialogue, with brisk, then frantic pacing as the invasion proceeds. Dir. Gunn cut his teeth as a writer at TROMA before graduating as scribe of the successful DAWN OF THE DEAD remake.
