Siblings Mimi and Luke unwittingly resurrect an ancient alien overlord who was entombed on Earth millions of years ago after a failed attempt to destroy the universe. They nickname the evil creature Psycho Goreman (or PG for short) and use the magical amulet they discovered to force him to obey their childish whims. It isn't long before PG's reappearance draws the attention of intergalactic friends and foes from across the cosmos and a rogues' gallery of alien combatants converges in small-town suburbia to battle for the fate of the galaxy.

Critics Consensus

Over the top and enthusiastically strange, PG: Psycho Goreman delivers all the cheesy midnight-movie goodness promised by its title.

If you're the generation that grew up with Power Rangers and you're a bit demented, you're gonna love this!! Don't expect any morals and ethics, this is just good old-fashioned 80s/90's style camp horror. It showcases all the death scenes I long for growing up with P.R as a grown adult now. There's some moments you're just so disgusted with the special effects, and then you're just rip roaring laughing. Did I mention it includes an original 80's hair metal song? Just watch the dang movie, it's not meant to be deep.

That H

If you like over the top Comedy-gore….this may be up your alley. Reminds me of GWAR with a touch of a witty/sassy teen. That female teen lead(Nita-Josee Hanna) was perfect as the condescending-wisecracking daughter of a slacker father, who is pretty funny himself. He also is an irritant according to his wife(most couples could probably relate to these two, LOL!). The "monsters" are over the top, as you might expect, but have their moments. If you go into this with no huge expectations and just know it's one of those purposely ridiculous Sci-Fi-"horror"-Comedy…..you may enjoy this. I did. I couldn't get enough of Mimi. She was funny from the beginning when she was playing that game with her brother on the front lawn. Her wise azz comments and facial expressions got my funny bone majority of the time. Good show overall imho

Overall, suppose you're seeking a horror film that's highly brainless, witty and packed with fun levels of creativity in the story, costumes and violence. In that case, Psycho Goreman will deliver some wild entertainment on your big screen. Thanks to many aspects, the film also delivers a fun retro vibe through the instrumental rock soundtrack and a story that left me wanting to see more, especially regarding the leading monster Psycho Goreman. Any issues I have with this film are generally minor and quite forgiving. Having seen the film several times now, I enjoy its level of dark comedy more and more with each rewatch and find myself admiring all that is on display, including the huge effort that has gone into it and the cleverness.

Absolutely ridiculous movie…but my 20 year old daughter and I were up for something silly and this fit the bill. If you are looking for a brainless hour and half of fun and stupidity, this is it. Enjoy this bonkers movie!

Brought me back to my childhood. It has a lot of flaws and overcomes them with buckets of charm. Good if you after a silly time.

It helps that Hanna, Ninaber and the rest of the cast have acute comic timing and know how to sell the material.

"Psycho Goreman" is a hilarious gut-buster in every sense of the term.

Psycho Goreman isn't clever or lively enough to be more than fitfully fun, especially given how much time is spent mocking generic, but painstakingly recreated plot contrivances

Rated: 1.5/4

Tilt Magazine

Oozing with affection, few films manage the dizzying balance of over-the-top gore and childlike exuberance like this.

Deep Focus Review

It's an absurdist oddity: a ghastly movie with costumed monsters and excessive slapstick gore, yet it resists the abrasive edge of a Troma production and feels abnormally silly.

Rated: 3.5/4

Critically Acclaimed Podcast

Its low budget definitely shows, but it is possessed of a gleeful, sick, gore-loving energy that is infectious and delightful. A horror comedy classic.
