Slither

I saw Slither the other night. Good, fun movie. It’s like an homage to 80’s horror movies. Not the “we’re going to try and give you nightmares” type of movie, but the splatterpunk movies geared toward teenagers. There is a decent plot involved, but it’s loose enough that if your laughing and joking around with friends a little, you’re aren’t going to be completely lost by the end. It’s easy to follow, has decent special effects, and is fun, fun, fun. I really enjoyed it and had a good time watching it. Will I buy it on DVD, probably not? It was fun in the theatre, but I don’t think it has a lot of repeat viewings in its future. Although, it would be a great rental on a stormy night with some friends and some good salty popcorn. If you have the means, I highly recommend seeing it.
