slow-motion fighters,
what does the future past hold?
sand and some ray guns.
Made in 1982, and set in 1992 after America was destroyed by a nuclear war, Parasite was billed as “the first futuristic monster movie in 3-D.” From what I remember, there’s a scientist running around a mostly abandoned town with a parasite in his stomach, and another in a weird container. Of course, this container is opened, and the second parasite escapes and wreaks havoc on the lamest gang ever, as well as a landlady that wears too much make up. This movie also features demi moore as a bar wench/lab assistant. According to someone on imdb “Seeing her in her tight shorts made this worth a check.” I think it’s just a really entertaining movie. Laser guns are awesome, ya jerks.
Reminds me of that Discovery Channel show (I think it’s Discovery Channel) “The Monster Inside Me.”
It’s nice to hear that someone else out there still owns VHS tapes. I refuse to sell mine because I believe some day they will be worth a fortune.
