"Slither" is a grotesque, disturbing, frightening and very funny blend of horror and comedy. When it's funny, it's really funny, with snappy and memorable bits of dialogue and plenty of moments that are so disgusting you can’t help but laugh. When it wants to give you the creeps, it works too. There is a lot of tension during the film, mostly because when people die here they die really ghoulish and unsettling deaths. You’ve actually grown to care for the characters and you don’t want them to die... never mind die the way people do in this film! I hope this movie finds the audience it deserves because this one is not going to be for everyone. “Slither” does not pull its punches. When an alien takes over a body through unpleasant means, not only do they show you enough that you will be squirming in your seat, you will be covering your eyes by the end of the movie because this is one sick, gory movie. Yup, I loved it. It’s supposed to be disturbing and because it actually is, the movie becomes truly memorable. I’ll admit there’s also kind of a sick side to enjoying the film because you’re always wondering what kind of gruesome mess they’re going to pull off next. “Slither” is a very clever horror comedy that stands strong when it comes both to the yuck! Factor, the laughs and the genuine terror. (Dvd, September 21, 2012)
