Welcome to Sci-Fi 100!
100 Sci-Fi movies in 100 days!
"Creepozoids (1987)" is a super duper low-budget turd written & directed by David DeCoteau. It stars Linnea Quigley, Ken Abraham, and Michael Aranda. A quote I read online from one viewer stated "possibly the worst movie ever made." Well, I've seen plenty worse than this one. But this is pretty awful. But I'm the kind of guy who likes these uber cheesy low-budget dung piles of movies.
This movie is supposed to take place in the future (1998) where War War III had been over for 6 years and the nukes have reduced the world to rubble and a few bands of wandering survivors are all that's left on planet Earth. Well, one of these groups stumble upon an abandoned government research lab. They set up camp inside. Just as they start to feel safe for once, they are attacked by a leftover "experiment" from the lab. This film is a rip-off of the movie Alien.
The rubbery creature costume resembles the Xenomorphs from the Alien franchise. It's hiding in the giant lab facility that has lots of rooms and a basement. One twist is that when the creature kills you... you come back as a zombie. Oh, and there are giant rats in the facility that a few people have to battle.
The no-budget effects reduce the actors to wrestling with a stuffed animal. Seriously. It's that bad. There's even a mutant baby that comes out of a creature's stomach and attacks people.
Looks like the used a plastic baby doll and had the actors wrestle with it too.
Creepozoids is no-budget '80s horror filmmaking at it's worst (or best if you're a fan of like me.) Watch it if you dare!
