Review of Parasite

Parasite (1982)
5/10
Post-Apocalyptic Snoozefest...
30 April 2006
Warning: Spoilers
I typically dig the "post-apocalyptic" 80's films where apparently the future will be over-run with mullet-sportin', bad-music-listenin'-jerk-offs...but this one was pretty damn dull.

A scientist is infected with some sort of parasite. The parasite escapes (of course) and causes some havoc. A young Demi Moore is in it. End Of Story...

This wasn't the worst film I've ever seen, but it really has nothing going for it either. Apparently it was shot in 3-D but I didn't see it that way, so who cares. Semi-amusing for the bad acting and "futuristic" ray-gun elements (including an old Lamborghini Countach that sounds like a jet plane...), and for an early debut by Moore, but nothing I would bother watching again. Supremely mediocre - 5/10
