Plot:

Only when the body count begins to rise and a slug expert from England begins snooping around does it begin to look like Mike had the right idea after all. IMDB

Review:
I'm not sure if this was originally in Italian, but some of the actors are dubbed while others aren't... So, I'm not sure what that is about..

This movie is... it is... a very strange movie.

It starts out well! If you like bad movies, this is the way to go.. the first hour is pretty good: over-acting, an unbelievable plot ... it has everything. And the special effects are actually very decent, though.

But after everyone believes them that killer slugs are taking over the town, like in every other similar movie, the story, action, excitment goes downhill. It is still very easy to make fun of, but we just got a little tired of it.

If you like other movies like it, then I definitely suggest it!
