Hypnotic, ain't it?

I spent some time reviewing movies with a theme, in this case movies set in swamps.  And, to mix it up, a movie about venom-spitting fishmen capable of turning invisible.


MAN-THING (2005): http://radiation-scarred-reviews.blogspot.com/2009/07/man-thing-2005.html
"The editing was terrible, and in places cut down the effectiveness of the brooding, oppressive bayou atmosphere. I mean, seriously, this film was edited by an epileptic lemur. I particularly like (heavy sarcasm there, folks) the quick little 5-second montages intended to show that the swamp is angry. Criminy, my eyes! My ears! Frigging stupid sound effects to go with the flashy montages..."

SWAMP DEVIL (2008): http://radiation-scarred-reviews.blogspot.com/2009/07/swamp-devil-2008.html
"At first the film led me to believe that this was going to be a horror film along the lines of MAN-THING only to be surprised with a liberal admixture of Freddy Krueger into the Jimmybeast's backstory."

SWAMP THING (1982): http://radiation-scarred-reviews.blogspot.com/2009/07/swamp-thing-1982.html
"Adrienne Barbeau stands out for a slightly different reason. She's a talented actress, sure, but there's a certain very special, very bouncy pair of talents she puts on display here. I believe that this is the cut version of the film, as I only saw demure sideboob, no front view."

THE RETURN OF SWAMP THING (1989): http://radiation-scarred-reviews.blogspot.com/2009/07/return-of-swamp-thing-1989.html
"The Swamp Thing suit is miles ahead of the original. While the Swamp Thing in 1982 looked like a bald, green flabby guy with some moss glued to his nethers, Swamp Thing now is beefy. He's freaking jacked. Muscular. He's also much mossier and vine-coated. He looks like a humanoid figure sculpted out of vegetable matter now."

SEA BEAST (2008): http://radiation-scarred-reviews.blogspot.com/2009/07/sea-beast-2008.html
"The monsters themselves are imaginatively and frighteningly designed. They're described as abyssal fish-monsters, and their large (though not overly-so) dead eyes support this. Interestingly, the monsters are frequently compared to angler fish, and Arden specifically suggests that the monster is like a family of angler fish known as Sea Devils which she describes as having color-shifting abilities like a chameleon. Well, the real-world Sea Devils don't seem to have this ability, but it still makes for a cool monster."

    Earth is visited by a GIANT ANTIMATTER SPACE BUZZARD! Gawk at the amazingly bad bird puppet, or chuckle over the silly dialog. This is one of the greatest b-movies ever made.

    Lesson Learned:
    • Osmosis: os·mo·sis (oz-mo'sis, os-) n., 1. When a bird eats something.
