Gross-out horror comedy is my least favorite genre, but this movie's so skillful I have to take my hat off to it.

I'm zombied out.

[A] delightfully disgusting comic horror film.
Bruce Diones, New Yorker
Rotten
The problem with making a smart horror parody -- and James Gunn's Slither is a smart horror parody -- is that it's kind of like doing a virtuoso performance of 'My Way.' The skill of execution tends to be eclipsed by the tedium of the material.

There's something winning about this grab bag of orally fixated invertebrates and mucus-covered Noids.
