Mike Massie Gone With The Twins The end result is a competent little chiller, oftentimes using a less-is-more approach that works remarkably well with its limited resources. Rated: 8/10 Sep 29, 2020 Full Review Felix Vasquez Jr. Cinema Crazed A worthwhile genre entry that's less about science playing God and more about the dangers of losing the ability to distinguish between reality and fantasy. Nov 2, 2014 Full Review Emanuel Levy EmanuelLevy.Com Rated: 2/5 Aug 7, 2005 Full Review Ryan Cracknell Apollo Guide Takes far too long to get to its point.

Audience Member From the bad reviews this got, I was expecting much worse. It's actually quite enjoyable if you're into indie horror flicks. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/15/23 Full Review Audience Member A weird little film tackling the concept of superheroes lives not being all that it's cracked up to be, before Hollywood really started doing it in like every other superhero movie. The creature and makeup effects are on par with anything around at the time, and they still hold up today. They were by the same effects who did the original Jurassic Park. Sadly, the film is really dragged down by a poor plot, and even poorer acting from our main character. The supporting actors do their best, but when I'm supposed to sympathize with him and I don't, there's a problem there. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 01/29/23 Full Review Audience Member fucking stupid ass fucking movie never should watched it Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 01/13/23 Full Review Audience Member Incredibly poor film. Spiderman and the hulk merged into one but with no budget.... Rated 1 out of 5 stars 02/10/23 Full Review Audience Member Though it is not even close to the original storyline, I actually liked this Cronenbergy Fly approach. With some good performances and amazing make up effects by Stan Winston studios, this film is both entertaining and disturbing. Both of which it was trying to aim for. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/08/23 Full Review Audience Member The transformation is pretty gross, but i find old school FX grosser than CGI anyway. There's not much to this, it's OK for what it is but I wouldn't watch it again. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 01/29/23 Full Review Read all reviews
