Foreshadowing is a good thing... unless there is
too much of it.I mean, jeez! This movie spends 3/4 of its running time on what
Jaws did in its first 30 minutes! If done properly, foreshadowing can increase the aura of suspense in a film. If done improperly, it grinds the film to a halt, as is the case with CHUD.
There was another thing I noticed when watching CHUD. The original mutant corpse was said to have been killed by a gas leak in the sewer. Said gas is likely to be flammable.
SO WHY THE F**K DO THE POLICE GO AFTER THEM WITH FLAMETHROWERS????!!!!!!That would be the most blatant display of incompetence in the history of mankind, topping even FEMA's response to Hurricane Katrina.
