Roger Moore Tribune News Service Parents should have it on their Netflix instant queue, ready to buttress their "If you go to acting school, you COULD end up taking your clothes off for some hack for a movie like this." Rated: .5/4 Jan 15, 2013 Full Review Ethan Gilsdorf Boston Globe Deep in the swampy hearts and minds of some filmmakers, embarrassing stereotypes still fester, gathering moss and slime. Rated: 1/4 Sep 10, 2011 Full Review Neil Genzlinger New York Times Doesn't throw in the kind of wit that can turn a formulaic creature feature into a pleasant diversion along the lines of "Lake Placid." Rated: 1/5 Sep 10, 2011 Full Review Sean Kernan We Got This Covered Creature has no merits to speak of but I am comforted by my ability to overcome my disorientation long enough to recognize how lacking Creature is. Rated: 2/10 Mar 1, 2013 Full Review R.L. Shaffer IGN DVD An awfully made, awfully acted, awfully plotted, and awfully boring more. In a word, Creature is awful. Rated: 2/10 Apr 1, 2012 Full Review Felix Vasquez Jr. Cinema Crazed Tedious and overly complicated... Oct 1, 2011 Full Review Read all reviews

Audience Member Like pulling nose hairs out for 90 minutes Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 02/22/23 Full Review nikita y If only it was a porn movie... Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 03/30/23 Full Review Audience Member For a movie with such a renowned direction in the horror genre and its use of the story boards to tell the story so precisely, It felt like someone telling a story. This movie can be summed up in two words sloppy and disjointed. So for this not a great movie overall but had potential in being a good movie, I give "Creature" a C-. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 01/31/23 Full Review Audience Member Plagued by terrible acting, illogical plot points, and no self-interest to be a good film that tries, Creature is a horrendous abortion, a deformed swine that exists in the darkest corners of cinema Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 02/06/23 Full Review Audience Member a pretty good creature movie, not the best but still pretty good Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/07/23 Full Review Audience Member Love the concept, hate the movie.
