Summary: Good Gore!!
Comment: This movie is pretty campy, and overall plays out like a childhood fantasy, but it's pretty funny in a gross-out sort of way. And it makes with the red stuff big time, bro. Lots and lots of gore, slime, and guts. Probably ranks in the top 20 goriest films ever made. These slimy aliens that look like R-rated versions of the Little Shop of Horrors plant eat people and slither around. Overall it's pretty cool if you like the B movie sci fi horror. And synapse gives us a great DVD transfer with good extras and all that jazz.

Summary: An original creature...
Comment: This is truly on of the most original sci-fi creatures I have ever seen. The movie is about a meteor that crashes on earth. Some people discover it and in it is a living creature. The creature begins to multiply in numbers and size upon eating its favorite meal--humans. Very cool little flick with plenty of gore, interesting story, excellent creatures. Check it out, it is a worthy addition to your sci-fi/horror library. I don't want to ruin anymore of the story so go on and get it...you will not regret it.

Editorial Reviews:

A group of campers stumble upon the remnants of a meteorite and discover some fanged, worm-like creatures have hitched a ride to Earth. After the "camper" appetizer, the alien spawn take refuge in the basement of an isolated house… and get ready for the main course! With the people in the house now becoming the entrees of an intergalactic monster buffet, a group of teenagers, led by a small boy, decide to take this matter into their own hands… to stop the aliens from reproducing and rid the world of THE DEADLY SPAWN once and for all!

Featuring classic creature designs and gory special effects by John Dods (THE X-FILES: FIGHT THE FUTURE, SPOOKIES, "MONSTERS" TV Series), THE DEADLY SPAWN has been totally re-mastered from the original 16mm camera negatives. With extra materials compiled from the personal collections of the cast and crew, THE DEADLY SPAWN can finally invade your home theatre in the best version ever! Just try not to put this DVD in the basement… you might be surprised what you find down there.
