ClassyWas Excellent, smart action film.

Numerootno A story that's too fascinating to pass by...

GL84 After returning to Earth, the radioactive contents of a spaceship fall into a small community in Long Island and turns the rodents into a breed of man-sized, vicious killing machines and forces a pair of scientists looking for the fallen spaceship into trying to stop the rampaging beasts.Considering its resources, this one didn't turn out that bad. Among the many enjoyable elements to consider here is the numerous technical limitations that don't seem to affect the actual on-screen content. This one really scores nicely with the idea of the radioactive contents of a crashed space-ship being spread throughout a small community and turning the creatures into ravenous killing machines. It's a fantastically cheesy type of setup that might actually get played out. This one generates some solid action scenes here due to that, from the boys' initial encounter out in the swamp where it takes them out one-by-one to the hit-and-run accident that severed its arm. The remnants of the severed arm itself lead to some rather fun searching of the house to find it as well as the antics afterward that are certainly far more exciting than expected throughout there. The later half, where it introduces the deranged scientist and his plan for world domination using the contained radioactive chemicals in his work manages to bring about some exceptionally cheesy work. The whole aspect of his character appearing out of nowhere and derailing the general fun of the creature attacks with the scenes down in his basement lab holding them hostage and explaining his plan the way all good mad scientists do which in turn leads to the real fun here with the final mutations to arrive. Consisting of the mutated assistant that appears to sprout a rodent-like face and claws in human form while coming together with some solid action featuring all the sides brawling with each other in the ruins of the facility and really generating some solid fun to be had in the grand confrontation. From the emergence of the giant creature to the battle with the mutation and the series of foot-chases with the final mad doctor in the swamplands outside, it ends this one on a rather nice note. These here manage to hold it up as there wasn't a whole lot to dislike about it. Frankly, those here really tend to revolve around the low-budget special effects and presentation here, which is the elephant in the room with this one. There's some laughable material here, from chunky meaty blood, doll parts for human remains and obvious food substituted for spilled innards which is all completely obvious about its usage. The rat costume at the end oddly looks like it's falling apart from the beginning and the giant rat costume used for the creature's appearance is clunky, stiff and barely mobile enough to pose enough of a threat to the lone victim that's attacked. It's somewhat embarrassing, yet again the circumstances surrounding it do manage to give this somewhat of a pass moreso than most others. There's also the main flaw here of the needless inclusion of the mad doctor that does nothing for the film as a whole. It comes out of nowhere and seems to halt the momentum of the film to introduce this segment that doesn't really belong there. This was working fine as a creature feature rather than introduce this rather off-kilter segment, so placing it here is somewhat jarring. Otherwise, this one isn't that bad.Rated R: Graphic Violence and Graphic Language.

Scott LeBrun A NASA space probe returns from Venus, carrying a cargo of radioactive goop. When it crashes back onto Earth, the goop is allowed to infect the nearest possible victim: a weasel. The weasel was already not doing so hot since it was rabid in the first place. It is then transformed into a big ugly mutant monster that claims a couple of victims. Not to fear, for an intrepid inspector named Cameron (John Smihula) is on the case.Granted, it is cool that Nathan Schiff, apparently just 16 years old when this was made, was actually able to get this completed. That in itself is an achievement, especially if this little offering has attained any sort of cult status. That still doesn't negate the fact that, objectively speaking, the movie *is* a turd. It's a slowly paced, exposition heavy, terribly acted clunker with oodles of stock music, truly tacky special effects and splatter, and an inane script. It's hard to believe that "Weasels Rip My Flesh" is as crude as it is, until one sees it for themselves.Still, it's somewhat fascinating in spite of itself. Hell, it's even pretty funny on occasion. Fred Borges is an absolute hoot as the deranged Dr. Sendam, who hopes to exploit the monster for his own ends. And it *does* have an absolutely hilarious twist ending.Recommended only to the most patient and adventurous of B movie fanatics.Five out of 10.

TheRetardedVacuum I'm pretty sure I heard somewhere that Nathan Schiff was sixteen when he made this movie, and he was able to get adult actors and crew to work for free in his movie, now that's an accomplishment!As far as the movie itself... let me try to explain it. The movie opens with a Manos-style opening sequence (though not nearly as long) with a voice that sounds like it was recorded over a phone reciting a speech about "life and it's purpose" that's way too deep for a movie called Weasels Rip My Flesh. Then two drunk girls enter a house, then get killed with a knife by some guy with frosting on his hands. After the opening credits, there is a model spaceship with rocks on fire sitting next to it on top of a black garbage bag. The movie then shows a guy walking in a completely black atmosphere and picking up a sample of green slime and puts it into a container. The model rocket then takes off into space and crashes on earth in the water.As we find out later, turns out the model rocket was supposed to be a real rocket ship, and the rocks on fire on top of a black garbage bag, that was the planet Venus. A NASA space rocket was on an expedition to Venus to collect a highly radioactive specimen, and upon returning to earth, crashed into a lake.Two boys then find containers of the stuff in the water, one of the boys gets bit by an animal, the other boy finds it's hole and pours the stuff into it (sorry if that sounds wrong). The weasel inside (which looks like it's decaying and was probably made with paper Mâché) gets the stuff on him and transforms into a giant monster and runs loose. Then some interesting stuff happens, I don't want to spoil it.Some of the stuff I said in the plot description, you wouldn't know this is what is happening unless you rewound over and over again and studied the scenes hard because some scenes are shot in such a strange way or are so blurred that you can't tell what the heck is going on. I had to rewind the movie about four times before I realized that what looked like a pile of blood, discarded body parts and pus that then transformed into a monster was in fact the weasel.Don't let that fool you though, I really did like this movie. It's really silly, surprisingly entertaining and it has a surprisingly fair amount of gore. It's really worth watching for the climactic battle and the ending alone. Looking forward to watching Nathan Schiff's other movie They Don't Cut The Grass Anymore.

Boba_Fett1138 Never seen an $1 budget movie before? Well, here is your chance. Here is a low-budget movie if there ever was one. But what's especially shocking; it's not just only cheaply done but also horribly! Of course I can enjoy and appreciate a low-budget horror flick every now and then, especially when it got made in the '70's and is featuring killer animals. But even if you're a fellow lover of the genre, you'll have to admit that this movie is just horrible and a complete waste of time, even though the movie is just over an hour short.The movie totally looks like an amateur film, put together by a bunch of friends, after school was out. And actually, that also really was the case with this movie. I hope for them they had fun making this movie, fore I surely didn't had any fun with it and the fun also doesn't really show in this movie.They obviously went over-the-top and overboard with things, just for the fun of it but this doesn't make the movie a fun one as well. It instead makes it look more like a clumsily one. All of the effects are quite horrible really and truly look like they came up with it on the spot and put things together from stuff they had lying around in their kitchens or garages. Paper-mache monsters, fake pink blood, a lamp that is supposed to be a space rocket and even a stuffed shark, it's all present in this movie. But summing all these things up makes it sound like more fun than this actual movie was to watch.It's painfully obvious that none of these guys and girls had any experience with making movies, prior to this. They most likely had no idea what they were doing. It's not just the movie its concept and script that is bad and silly, in all honesty it's something that could had worked and something that has worked in other similar type of genre flicks but it's more so that the directing, acting, camera-work and editing is all so painfully bad. Nothing in this movie really clicks with each other, or works out for the movie and its entertainment value. It's just a total mess in every way thinkable. Also highly annoying that you keep hearing the sound of the camera rolling. Once you notice it you'll keep hearing it throughout the entire movie. Also funny how they weren't even able to do a decent close-up. Every time the camera gets close, the screen gets all blurry. Not that it matters though, I doubt anything good was to be seen during its blurry moments.It's so disappointing that a movie with a title such as "Weasels Rip My Flesh" completely failed to entertain. I at the very least expected some good weasel action but it ultimately was just all very disappointing and totally amateur-like.1/10 http://bobafett1138.blogspot.com/
