Review of Parasite

Parasite (1982)
2/10
Bad to the nth degree
2 April 2006
Even for a Charles Band film, Parasite is one bad movie. Band has never been known for high quality product and to be fair, its the cheesiness of most of his films that appeals to me so much. The problem here is that this film isn't cheesy fun, its cheesy bad. The script is absolutely atrocious (it took three people to write this crap?) and the special effects are horrendous. One can't quite believe that future FX guru Stan Winston made these terrible creatures. fans may want to note that Demi Moore appears in her first starring role and that its amazing that she ever went on to anything else. She's just not a good actress here. Some fans may also note future Ghoulies director Luca Bercovici in a supporting role as well. From start to painful 84 minutes later Parasite is poor film-making at its worst.
