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.

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

Psycho Goreman, Steven Kostanki’s darkly comedic descent into space violence, is extremely fun and charming.

The Stranger (Seattle, WA)

It mocks many of the classic 1980s psychotronic B-movie tropes—exaggerated characters, extra splattery and creative kill scenes, and plot holes for days—but it's all coming from a place of love for the genre and delivered with a knowing wink.

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

Up at 1 am baked out of your mind especially during the month of October? Are you also a fan of 80s monsters and Troma films? Then PG is perfect for you! Tongue in cheek from beginning to end, hilarious characters with amazing comedic timing and oozing with tons of bloody gore makes this homage to B-Movies an instant cult classic for sure. Add great editing and cinematography to the list of why this is one you shouldn’t sleep on, as well as the cool score that rounds everything out

If you can shut your brain off for 90 minutes and like cheap gore, you may find enjoyment here. However, if you can't, you will probably be pulling your hair out 20 minutes into the film. Low quality costumes, cheesy to flatly stupid writing, characters whose personalities seem to drastically change half way through the film, and a lead that is wholly unlikeable after the first ten minutes. Watch it for the sheer camp value if you like that sort of thing, but avoid at all costs if you don't.
