Gets a Bad Rap
16 September 2013
A little boy who has an extensive array of pets he likes to call "specimens" finds an alien egg to hatch, somewhat like Horton. The creature manages to use his snout to suck up peanuts and warp time and space with his fingers.

Director J. P. Simon is known for his slasher "Pieces" and horror gem "Slugs". I like to think the puzzle pieces in this one were a reference to his earlier work. Maybe not, but it adds something to the picture for me.

This is a terrible movie ("it stinks") and there is no denying it -- even Simon thinks so. But somehow it has gotten to be #18 on the worst movies of all time on IMDb and that is just wrong. "Final Sacrifice" should be seen as worse. "Hell's Threshold" should be, too. A bit of editing and this could be a workable movie.
