Sludge (2017) Reviews

• Clawed Hopper

  shawnblackman2018-06-15

  A toxic substance in the woods has created a beast that instantly screws you over. A bunch of students head to the area to take samples and meet really gross deaths in the process. This one had pretty good make-up effects and gore. A few cheesy CGI effects but over all not bad. The flick suffered however from lack of an interesting plot. After 40 minutes they run out of ideas and the movie fizzles at this point. I did laugh when a guy had been clawed and he starts jumping to get away. I called him a Clawed Hopper! The ending irked me as well which is why I gave it only two stars. You will feel like your eyes should be Clawed out of your head for witnessing such crap.

• Nothing to see here

  Literally, there is nothing to see here in this film. Normally I will give a low/no budget film the benefit of the doubt and will try to watch to the very end. But this film I could only get as far as 15 minutes then turned it off, it was that bad. 9 minutes in and the opening credits start to roll. Before this, a podcaster with a clock ticking so loud to the point it was distracting. The effects were horrid and the acting was very one dimensional. If I could rate this on the negative scale, I would give it a Minus 10, it was that bad.

• needs a bigger budget

  Imagine the blob creature from ''Creepshow 2'', in walking monster form, with the face of Venom from Spiderman, killing technique of Victor Crowley, that rapes women. You end up with ''Claw''. This reminded me a lot of those Hatchet movies, but with a budget too small to go it's full potential. A lot of the times the kills look very choppy, and it makes me wonder if that was done because of lack of funds. Fortunately you're still able to tell what's going on. The camera work at times is super shaky for no reason. It seems like the director just graduated from film school, this is his first big project, and he's experimenting with different angles. Overall it's a silly fun b movie

  Toxic waste dumped in a remote rural area fails to create redneck zombies, but rather a manbearpig..light on the pig. A story was started that the waste has healing powers something added to the story for no particular reason other than to get 90 minutes in the can. Young adults are in the park for various reasons get attacked plus surprise ending. The film quality and effects reminded me of a 1970's film. It appears retro-camp was on the agenda, but was only half way executed making the effect a negative instead of a plus. The film is told as a flashback by one of the survivors of the massacre. Tiffany Shepis is becoming the next Eric Roberts for cameo appearances in stinker films...I understand it's a check. Guide: F-word, nudity, and I presume that was a rape scene.

• Not a bigfoot movie. Apyr confirmed!

  This is not a bigfoot movie. You will not see a bigfoot in this movie. There is no mention of a bigfoot in this movie. There is, however, a mutated demonic freak creature brutally eviscerating everything in its path. Is this a "good" movie? No. Is this a fun movie? Sure. Some things to expect... 1. Apyr 2. CGI vomit 3. Killer mud puddles 4. Breasteses 5. Disorienting camera work 6. Brutal deaths 7. Rapey rapers 8. Toxic waste 9. CGI fireworks coming out of a mud puddle (slow clap) And much more. Do you like low budget indie movies? Do you like SOV horror? If you said yes then you might enjoy this one.
