from Movies at Midnight Hosted by Cody and Nikki
Welcome back to Movies at Midnight!This week, Nikki and Cody are reviewing Slither, directed by James Gunn. In a small town in South Carolina, a meteor crashes down, bringing an alien parasite with it. The parasite takes ahold of Grant, and slowly morphs his body into a horrifying slug-like creature. This new creature births thousands of slug-like parasites that start to take over the minds of the townspeople. It’s up to Grant’s wife Starla, Chief Bill Pardy, and Mayor Jack MacReady to put a stop to the invasion.Released in 2006, Slither marked James Gunn’s first directing gig, which would lead him to direct such films as Guardians of the Galaxy and Superman. Although flopping at the box office, the movie went on to become a cult classic, but does the movie hold up 20 years later? Listen to Nikki and Cody to find out.
