Review: Slither

Complete review here.

I know Slither is loved in certain circles, but I get the impression those circles are pretty small. Yet it’s a very enjoyable little movie, funny and gory and decently suspenseful–if I rated non-new releases, I’d peg it at a B+. I know it didn’t make back its money, at least not in the theater, but studios need to take a look at this movie’s quality rather than its box office and give James Gunn more scripts. (Unless they’re still punishing him for writing Scooby-Doo and Scooby-Doo 2: Monsters Unleashed. Then they’re doing the Lord’s work.)

I see he’s got a couple upcoming movies, actually. Here’s praying they do well enough to lead Gunn into regular Hollywood circulation, because he’s a talented guy. Watch Slither.
