"The film real science
fiction fans have been waiting for!" That's what
we call a lie.
The Deadly Spawn was a
fairly dire attempt to cash-in on the success of Alien
if the voice-over and the alternate titles are to be
believed. You certainly wouldn't ascertain that
fact from the footage.
There are a couple of nice
set pieces in the trailer - the 'inside the monster's
head' camera angle, and the silly dismembered arm joke.
But despite all the rubber monsters and blood, the most shocking aspect of this movie appears to be the
acting.
Favourite
bit: The old lady being bitten on the ankle by a
killer space tadpole. |
