See more Charles B May 27 The so-called critics panning this surprisingly frightening b-film are a little too impressed with themselves. Of course this film was low budget, but that doesn’t mean it’s a poor film. This movie scared millions of kids in the 60s/70s, including me. And even watching it as an adult, I’m impressed by its clever production. The shots of the shrews through the fence and the sound they make is truly creepy. The film has great pacing, decent acting, and is highly atmospheric. This film is visceral — tapping into common human fears, especially those of children. If you’re looking for a good, b&w popcorn movie, The Killer Shrews is a great way to cuddle up with a loved one and enjoy 69 minutes of classic b-cinema on a Saturday night. Btw, audiences loved this film at its release. It grossed more than one million dollars at the box office. Not bad for cheap, drive-in fodder. See more Dallas H 08/19/2024 Wow, the visual design of the shrews is horrendously cheesy. The constant switch back and forth between hand puppets and dogs wearing costumes is laughable. I cannot believe someone thought investing money in producing a sequel and reboot decades later would be worthwhile. See more 08/08/2024 Love it actually! 4/5. I enjoyed it. See more Liam D @Mediawatcher2003 08/02/2024 Even by B 50s/60s movie standards. This is an lazy bordering on unwatchable with effects that are laughable, an terrible story and cheesy acting See more CodyZamboni Z 07/28/2024 Cheap looking, amatuerish, un scary, and poorly acted, Worst of all, it's boring, A silly tale of giant poisonous hungry shrews, snacking on their human creators, See more Read all reviews
