Audience Member A bunch of people are marooned on a tiny island in the North Atlantic that's populated by tiny rubber monsters. Dear God this is a terrible movie. So many many mistakes ... the film is set in the 1920's, which is an odd choice because it means this dime store movie had to spend money on costumes that the plot didn't require. The little rubber monsters are clearly supposed to remind you of that Zuni fetish doll from "Trilogy of Terror", but you need to be able to shoot and edit effectively to make a small, inarticulate threat work. This just has a ton of scenes of people clearly having little rubber dolls thrown at them or holding them onto their own limbs and pretending to be attacked. I'll give it one thing ... the ultra cheap gore effects are probably the least bad thing about it.

Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/22/23 Full Review Audience Member My video review can be seen here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yDmAArj-ZKA Attack of the Beast Creatures is a "good bad movie." The flick is a lot of fun to watch in spite of the bad acting or the absurd looking "beast creatures." You would think a movie where the cast is simply wondering around in the woods, would get boring, but for some reason, the whole thing works. I think one of the reasons this is so, is because the script is a simple one. You can't lose with a simple survival story. I suggest watching this movie and then watching a movie like "Evil in the Woods (1986)." You will see the juxtaposition of two indie flicks where one works, thriving on a simple, straight forward script and another script that attempts to Jam three different stories into one movie, tries to jam bigfoot, witches, and zombies (?) into one film. You will see the difference between a "good bad movie" and a movie that simply fails on all levels, starting with a script that should have been heavily re-edited or scrapped altogether. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 01/13/23 Full Review Audience Member Before "Troll 2" there was "Attack of the Beast Creatures" Those are some mean carrots Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/18/23 Full Review Audience Member Igazi egyfilmes produkció,- szerencsà (C)re - a và (C)geredmà (C)nyt látva nem túl meglepÅ'. A színà (C)szi játà (C)k amatÅ'r nagyon, ez párszor mosolyt csalt az arcomra, továbbá a gonosz 20-25 cm magas kis vörös bestiák is szórakoztatóak. Ajánlom a filmet a Túlà (C)lÅ'sziget rajongóinak, ami gyakorlatilag ugyan ez, csak itt több kis huncut là (C)nyecske van, nem egy nagy (aki kà (C)pes alakot váltani). + van kà (C)t gyanúsan magyarosan hangzó nà (C)v színà (C)szek közt Robert Lengyel à (C)s Robert Nolfi. Sajnos mivel ez az egy filmjà 1/4k volt, így sok információt nem tudtam kideríteni sehonnan róluk. Azà (C)rt gratula nekik. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/06/23 Full Review Audience Member Remember the Zuni fetish doll from that "Trilogy of Terror" movie? Well, picture a couple dozen of those, with glowing eyes (and TEETH!), on an island with a bunch of hapless castaways, and you've pretty much got "Attack of the Beast Creatures." This movie is hilariously bad. (I challenge you not to laugh at some of the scenes of these amateur actors "struggling" against a bunch of foot-tall puppets.) Basically, if you're the kind of person who likes to get friends together and joke about a movie's flaws, MST3K style, you'll find a lot to love here. "Attack of the Beast Creatures" is often unintentionally a laugh riot in its own right, but it's a prime target for some good riffing too. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/03/23 Full Review Read all reviews
