Dan First things first, with a title like Monsturd you pretty much know this isn't going to be a serious movie and not the kind of film you'd probably watch with your future in-laws. What you do get however is one kick ass movie made on a budget that has everything horror fans looks for in a film. For me this is what low budget independent movie making is all about. The story is simple, an escaped serial killer Jack Schmitt dies a mysterious death in the city's sewage treatment plant, deep, dark trouble comes to town. A horrifying accident at a nearby genetic research laboratory results in the blood thirsty killer's resurrection and soon, using the county's sewer system as his underground lair, Schmitt exacts his odious revenge on the frightened townsfolk. Thats right folks, Jack Schmitt becomes a walking talking killing lump of s@#t with attitude. How's that for a storyline!.Don't think however this film is just an excuse for toilet jokes, it isn't. Yes it is a horror comedy and yes there are some funny moments but this film is much more than just 80 minutes of c@#p and s@#t jokes. What the writer/director pairing of Dan West and Rick Popko have created here is a brilliant piece of independent movie making. The acting throughout the film had a great relaxed and natural feeling and it's hard not to enjoy the film for what it is, a good fun movie. It's also thanks to the acting from the cast that some of the less plausible scenes just fit in and work, for example two scientists pouring chemical waste down a sidewalk storm drain in broad daylight in the middle of a residential area or the scene where a small girl describes to the local sheriff's and a police sketch artist the giant turd that killed her father, or my personal favorite where the two local deputies, played by our writer/director duo of Dan West and Rick Popko, find the remains of a sewer worker and spent the next 30 seconds throwing up, just brilliant. Monsturd is the first full length film from 4321 Films but having checked out their site I see there already well into production into their next film RetarDEAD and it's planned for a video release for this winter. RetarDEAD see's the evil Dr Stern, the creator of the s#$t monster return from the sewer to unleash his latest evil scheme on the students of Butte County Institute of Special Education and having just watched the trailer for this next project I'm already looking forward to picking this one up too. I'll wrap this little review up with a couple of lines from the brilliant title song from Monsturd...I'm here to warn you though it must seem absurd To be aware of a giant Monsturd When the s#$t goes down he may be in your town Don't get caught with your pants down Don't be a fool, don't drop the kids at the pool Oh yeah he's one cool stoolViolent but deadly, you'd better be aware He might just be in your underwear Best hold your breath, no don't breath that noxious vapor Make sure you've got some toilet paper Dan/hmandm.com

BookOfGeek I love movies, I do, I love even really dastardly bad ones. But this one, was one of those very few, that are so bad you can't even laugh at their stench (pun intended). This is House Of The Dead bad. I go into a movie called Monsturd and yeah expect a really bad movie, but it could have at least been a bad movie that had excellent acting, or a bad movie that had good camera angles. This movie had not even one saving factor. Yeah, it made me laugh that the moronic prison guards were obviously fooled by a mop with a fake painted doll under it. I haven't seen this in a while so if I'm incorrect about some of the detail there I'm sorry, it's not like it would matter. Nothing can possibly make this movie worse than it is. The sound is terrible, even Cannibal The Musical rivals it (I like that movie, but the sound is still bad) . Again, showing that there isn't even one saving grace for this movie to be near watchable. I love offensive movies, I really do, I like The Toxic Avenger, and Class Of Nukem High, because they are A class stink fests but at least they are shot semi-well. Anybody could shoot a movie like this with their dad's old hand-held camera from the 60's. It might have even saved it if it were black and white, so you could avoid the fact that nothing was done to even give it art direction. Ever seen the movie Slashers? That movie was so bad you could laugh, this movie takes you right into the land of the not even stupid enough to be funny.

artemis2854 This is a thoroughly enjoyable movie inasmuch as it never takes itself seriously.It's full of sight gags, burlesque and double entendre throughout. This is truly a send-up of all B-horror movies.I read about the film makers and it appears they wanted to make a film something like "Jack Frost," but with a "character" that was 180 degrees apart from the sanitary Jack.***SPOILERS*** Don't miss the bit with the ventriloquist dummy and take note of the name of the serial killer.Well done and entertaining. A "don't-miss" for any aficionado of satire.

jayro The makers of Monsturd set out to make a movie that would be so "crappy" it's funny. They even tried adding jokes in and funny bits. Oh they're funny, but just because grown people actually spent hours of their lives dedicated to this. Here's the thing, if you like horrible movies with horrible acting for the sake of laughing at it, this is one to see once and probably only once. If nothing else it'll make you feel a lot better about what you're doing with your life. Also, the more people you're watching this with the better. I'd give a grade or a star to this movie, but it's not even worthy of that. In fact, it's not even worthy of being called a movie. It's just, Monsturd...the biggest piece of crap man ever created. So yeah, go rent it.
