Total classic. Epic splatter schlock, but the audio's really bad. I'll have to see if it's this bad on my physical copy, too.
its really bad lol. whats up with the audio!
Troma never made a better movie.
I've been wanting to watch this movie for years and I finally saw it and I have to admit that I laughed a lot and I was surprised by some gore scenes, but very creative. It's a good B series! I recommend it.
i remember watching this a long time ago and its still super funny, yes lots of gore, but its worth the watch
