Slither: 2.5 Stars. My curiosity about this film was piqued when I saw that it (at the time) had a 90% score on
rottentomatoes.com. I think this is a classic example of a movie exceeding its expectations, much like it fell short of mine once I saw the glowing reviews. There's a lot of good stuff in this film: fun effects, gory deaths, slimy slugs slithering to and fro,
Nathan Fillion. But even
Capt. Mal Reynolds couldn't do too much to make this film anything more than watchable. The great
Michael Rooker also looked horrible even before he got infected. Fortunately he looks healthier on
Thief, so I imagine they wanted him to look like
Montgomery Burns, but I can't see why he went along with it. Lastly,
Elizabeth Banks is hot. Real hot. So show some skin, this is a horror movie fergoodnesssakes!
