Review of Forbidden World (1982) by David W — 24 Apr 2011

Despicably unpleasant 80's "Alien" knock-off, bursting-at-the-seams with utterly vile splatter effects, loads of gratuitous female nudity (Not that there's anything wrong with that!), plentiful poorly-lit, low-rent, soft-core sex-scenes, & a simple-minded, extraneous plot ( A motley group of geneticists attempt to corral a slavering, murderous-mutant escapee from their lab with very unsuccessful results-), mainly present as an excuse to showcase the slightly pornographic & VERY moist & slimy goings-on.

This is Producer Roger Corman's sleaziest effort ever (And that says alot!!), and I love it!! SPOILER ALERT: The drooling "Alien"-Imitation menace is finally done in at film's end by feeding it some cancerous tumors from the terminally-ill wacky-professor character (Joyously-hyper Fox Harris, in his ever-present mung-drenched lab coat-).

They, of course are removed from him without the aid of anesthesia, & in very bloody close-up shots! Mmmm-mmmm!!! Somebody get me a spoon!!
