VHS Movie Reviews of Humanoids From Deep
Movie Review: Fishmen want human women with big boobs
Summary: 4 Stars
Barbara Peeters classic 80's HUMANOIDS FROM THE DEEP is a real hoot from start to finish. A classic "B" movie with stalwarts like Doug McClure, Vic Morrow and Ann Turkel. Attempts to increase salmon production at a fishing town in the Pacific northwest has terrible results when the experimental fish escape to the open seas and are consumed by another fish -- which causes it to mutate and take on it's principal competitor: humans. It also drives it to mate with human females (well endowed human females I might add). The ending blatantly rips off ALIEN. The Noyo Festival featured a famous Monterey area Dixieland band, Jack Stock and the Abalone Stompers.
Summary of Humanoids From Deep
The peculiar genius of schlock-king Roger Corman is in full bloom with this extremely gory, pointedly offensive homage to 1950s monster movies (with a generous helping of Alien thrown in for good measure), in which a legion of mutated salmon-men terrorize a small town in their search for unwilling female companionship. (Potential viewers should be warned that this movie goes to great lengths to show what earlier films in this genre had only implied.) A guilty pleasure for exploitation fans with a strong stomach and a twisted sense of humor. For what it's worth, director Barbara Peters has claimed that additional shock scenes were inserted by producer Corman without her knowledge. The glop-intensive special effects were devised by Rob Bottin, who later went on to gross out the masses with his work on Seven, Robocop, and John Carpenter's graphic remake of The Thing. --Andrew WrightCult Movies VHS Video
