Review of C.H.U.D. (1984) by Sean Michael S — 24 Dec 2012

Tramps, streetpeople, vagrants, bums, drifters, hobos, urchins, ragamuffins, and other assorted displaced persons start to disappear, especially those which have chosen to live underground (ala the mutants in New New York).

When the wife of a high-ranking police officer goes missing, the investigation into the multiple disappearances becomes a focus of the police force. With cover-ups at the highest level, the true reason behind the missing persons remains secret until the cannibalistic monsters become more brazen above ground.

Of course, this being the 80s, the reason the monsters were created was through mishandled nuclear waste. Decent for the budget, watch with Street Trash, Slime City, I Was a Teenage Zombie, Deadbeat at Dawn, Combat Shock, and Brain Damage.
