3 foot tall monsters what's not to love...


It's classified as a horror movie. But, it is about as far from a horror movie as you can get. It's more like if SNL decided to make a monster movie only not even that scary.

The acting was perfect for most of the film. But, toward the end not naming names *cough cough* the blonde lady seemed to have lost it. She sort of had a "you can't be serious" attitude or something. She wasn't mean about it, but it was like she stopped having fun like in the first 23 chapters of the movie, but that was just a minor annoyance. Phil Fondacara was the best reason to watch this. At 3 feet tall he still managed to be quite intimidating. The other monsters not so much even when they clearly had murderous intentions. I hope that everyone in this though enjoys great success in whatever endeavors they pursue, I believe they did great work.

This movie is definitely not for everyone though. Most people pan it pretty badly. I am not sure what they expected, it was pretty clear we were going to be dealing with midget monsters, D list actors and actresses (perhaps some weren't even on a list at all), odd set designs, a plot that makes no sense, quirky dialogue, and a low budget enterprise. I think they took all those elements and made something special and funny. I don't really care how many people didn't see the humor in this film, for me it was off the charts funny.

If you love Cheezits and are 100% proud of it, copy this as your signature.

I agree 100%! It's very funny and Phil Fondacara is just ludicrously good for a movie like this :)
