Parasite (1982)
3/10
Parasite: Looks great, but simply isn't very good
30 November 2017
Parasite tells the story of a doctor infested with a parasite, he is able to keep it under control but desperately seeks a way of removing it and preventing the creature from hurting anyone else.

Starring Demi Moore in her second movie at the young age of 20 this sci-fi horror simply isn't very good.

To it's credit it looks really good considering it's age but the storyline is a combination of generic and unexplained.

With a drab cast and an uninspired script this by all rights should have been better, if only a little bit.

I'm sure this will appeal to some film junkies but as for me, this was very definition of mediocre.

The Good:

SFX are quite good considering the age

Film has aged well

The Bad:

A lot is simply left unexplained

Somewhat dull

Things I Learnt From This Movie:

The way the old man invited our hero in for coffee made me very uncomfortable

Moore was in this movie to scream and repeatedly get knocked out
