Gnoran L This movie feels like what would happen if you asked an AI to make a movie out of a chronically online redditor's personality Rated 0.5/5 Stars •  Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 10/15/25 Full Review Irate T Black & White Comedy hasn't been this good since the Marx Brothers This was somehow surprisingly a little bit better than Hundreds of Beavers for me. While I loved HoB's take on Chaplin and Keaton, it didn't have quite enough hardcore slapstick. This, on the other hand, absolutely supplied a couple of full-hearted LOLs. A lot of people say it's Lovecraftian, and yeah, I get it. But I'd say that going into this, just be prepared for a Creature from the Black Lagoon parody. Ryland Brickson Cole Tews is a real genius, no matter what. The writer of this movie went on to direct HoB. But I think they should have shared the same credits; Tews as director/actor, and Cheslik as co-writer. Tews is just so talented!

The gags are relentless and just when you thought it could not get any stranger, It Does! Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 06/01/25 Full Review Tim M Resourceful in its old-fashioned aesthetics to make a memorable low-budget parody, Lake Michigan Monster is exactly the type of nautical nonsense we need. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 04/12/25 Full Review Kevin P A hilarious sh*tpost of a movie that feels like someone took the $20 budget and ran with it, taking advantage of every single frame with as much bizarre gut-busting jokes and surreal camerawork as humanely possible. It’s remarkably impressive for its budget and amateur background and clearly takes great influence from Monty Python and all those bad B-movie serials from the 1960's and 50's. It was neat recognizing sites from Milwaukee and Muskegon that they shot on-location, such as the Lake Ferry Express or the downtown Milwaukee skyline. It moves at a very brisk pace and is so dense with clever gags and interesting filming techniques that makes this movie easily rewatchable and a new underrated Halloween cult-classic. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/25/25 Full Review Mike P Campy creature feature is good for a few laughs... This is just relentlessly satirizing Universal Monster movies from the 40s; a whole venerable subgenre; the kind we all used to watch on Son of Svengoolie back in the day... And the setting; Lake Michigan circa Milwaukee; is so unique for a movie setting, that's it's well nigh irresistible. This is the kind of people watch at a party and get drunk to...very trippy and silly. Recommended Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 09/20/24 Full Review Read all reviews
