Humanoids from the Deep, AKA Monster, is one of those notorious movies that circulated amongst my group of friends when I was a kid. Only one of the gang had seen it, but the telling of the tale he gave made this live on in infamy.
Monsters come out of the water and seek hot chicks to mate with. And you see boobs! What more does a boy of 10 need to know!?!
The flick fell out of circulation, but I was lucky enough to find it this Friday eve. A Scotch, several glasses of wine, and some mighty fine gin and tonics later, I took down his bad boy. How does it hold up? Stick with me!
This is everything a growing boy needs! Cheesy monsters, which are actually men in suites, plenty of scantily clad victims (this was directed by a woman, so don't hit me with a #metoo) and plenty of corny dialogue and false bravado. This was made at a time when men were men, damsels in distress were the norm, and creatures came out of the deep to mate with them.
This movie is boobies and gore. 'Nuff said.
Humanoids from the Deep is pretty much critic proof. Either you dig what it's selling or you don't. It's far from Oscar material, but who the fuck wants to watch that shit? Not me! Not on a Friday night! And not when I'm three sheet to the wind!
Given I am three sheets to the wind on a Friday night, this is a Good. And I'll probably catch it again sober, and enjoy it too.
