Summary: Slither is an edgy blend of heart-stopping terror, wry humor and surprising humanity from genre-bending screenwriter James Gunn, whose "Dawn of the Dead" became one of 2004's most surprising hits. (Universal)
Fun, but not as incisive as I'd hoped. There are some nice twists on the standard possessed/zombie plot, but a distinct lack of zip in the bulk of the dialogue. This is not down to the performances which are quite amusing, especially Fillion who injects his usual undercutting charm. There are still some chuckles to be had between the splatter and I think I spotted Banks' nipple, so, you know, bonus!
A derivative but ceaselessly entertaining bit of B grade fun with vivid characters and a great sense of humor that only stumbles at the climax. Worth watching.
Generally I wouldn't argue for camp being a positive trait, but this takes the whole Body Snatchers concept and mixes in influences like John Carpenter's The Thing, Junji Ito's Uzumaki, and various Cronenberg -- all with a great sense of humor and self-awareness. The result is pure entertainment. "Meat. :)"
I found Slither to be pretty stylishly done. Great make-up effects, an easy-to-follow, not-too-convoluted story with some likeable (and unlikeable) characters. Michael Rooker is great, as usual, and the rest of the cast falls in line and delivers a good way to spend an evening if you have an above-average stomach.
Interesting mix of comedy and horror, although the horror is undermined and the comedy shines more here. Still, worth a watch for fans of the hybrid genre.
