I remember seeing this B-flick back in the early 90s on Cinemax. Has anybody seen it?

It kind of felt like a rip-off of Gremlins to me but still... I kinda liked it... 2 stars? I don't know, I'd have to see it again.

Is that the one where the front cover of the VHS has the little monster coming up from the toilet?

I think the first "Munchies" had one of the creature clinging to a woman's leg and looking up her skirt. Or some "Gremlins" rip-off film did.

On IMDB, the second one has a box with some fo the cast, including Loni Anderson looking up at the creature dressed in a leather jacket standing on top a a pizza tray. It also says there's a third one.

Think I saw parts of the first two on late night TV years ago. Seemed more like bad kids movies.

Did the Munchies have Harvey Korman in a dual role? Man, that's the sign of a quality film.

I also have a vague recollection of some scheme to recycle Agent Orange into orange drink, because, well, it has orange in the name, so it must be something like oranges. Lovely writing.

Korman was in the first one; what was the last good movie he was in? "Blazing Saddles"?
