Review of Seedpeople (1992) by Jason D — 26 Dec 2008
In another Full Moon "classic" (and I use that term loosely), the Seedpeople combines elements of The Ruins, Invasion of the Body Snatchers, and Critters. As far as believability and how well this movie was made, I'd say it's on the same level as Critters 3.
A state Geologist comes back to his old hick town just in time for an invasion of seed aliens. After being stowed away in giant seeds, the aliens blossom into plants, and try to pollinate with any passerby humans.
As time progresses, more and more humans are "turned" and it's up to a few people to try and save the day. Yeah, this movie is totally a Cheesy B, but it manages to deliver. People use to think these were the bad films of the 90's, but clearly, they had no idea what kind of "low-budget horror" would come out in present day.
Not bad for its time, with decent creature effects by John Carl Buehler, though I would say the visual effects (which are barely used in this, and for good reason) are utterly atrocious. It's got a bunch of no name actors for the most part, but them manage to get the job done.
Not bad.
