Review of Winterbeast (1992) by Anthony L — 02 Apr 2007

4/3/07- VICTORY!!!

The "Lord of the Rings" of shitty movies! Or "Star Wars" or "Gone With The Wind" or whatever your poison, this reigns supreme. I have seen this film more times than I dare count and reveal, and each time I am in utter awe at the complete awfulness of it, but in an oh so good way! This is bad people, but not in that dirty, Uwe Boll sorta way. No no no no no, this is in a class all by itself. The sheer ineptitude of every aspect of this film defies mere explanation. Winterbeast must be seen to be believed, and deserves a great DVD release that would surely gain it the cult status it desrves. Claymation monsters, flamboyant gay/Jewish villain, bizarre dance number, off synch dialog, 180 rule breaking, awful camerawork, nonsensical plot, the list of beautiful offenses goes on and on! And let's not forget the title creature itself, a drunken stumbler of a monster who swats ineffectually at the "heroes" as they desperately attempt all the random acts they can to pad out the length of the movie before walking off laughing despite the death of dozens of people.

But the laughs never stop for us. There has never, and likely WILL never, be a better shitty movie than this, and believe me when I say I call it that with love. You absolutely MUST check this movie out! You WON'T be disappointed.
