This has to be, hands down, the cheapest movie I have ever seen. They couldn't have spent $50 on this turkey. The computer effects look like an Atari 2600 game and the alien creatures look like sock puppets. I found it amusing that the puppet-aliens were always eating people even though they did not appear to have mouths. Fans of really bad movies will probably enjoy this, as I sort of did, but everyone else is advised to stay far away.

Words cannot describe this film; until 'Feeders' I thought I could handle anything, you name it. I love horrible, campy flicks but this one really just blew me away. Shot on a budget of 50 bucks (I watched the commentary), the film was literally made by 3 guys. The aliens were made out of stockings sprayed with latex, and the entire movie was shot on videotape. The two main actors were the directors, cameramen and pretty much everything else. They actually had to add fake names to the end credits to make it seem more legit, but really, the movies is just horrible. From a cinematic standpoint, the movie just blows, but if you love cheap sci-fi that you can just have a good laugh with, this is really kind of an entertaining film.

Sometimes, I have to admit that I've fallen in love with a piece of crap. Fred Olen Ray's "Scalps" is a damn fine example. But, listen and listen well: "Feeders" really is every bit as bad as people say. What does one need to know? Aliens invade to eat people, and the budget is so low that they couldn't even afford to do fake-ass gore right. I hoped there would be some humor, at least. People making movies featuring obvious stuffed toys as threatening forces out to devour the Earth... these people should know that with a comical twist, it could have had a chance at being at least a grade-Z classick. But what is there to "Feeders"? There's no entertaining elements OTHER THAN those damn alien dolls with big plastic eyes. Even the gore is at such a bare minimum (as well as an ultimate pinnacle of ineptitude), that it loses all its effect and just becomes another boring, crappy part of this boring, crappy movie, with one of the worst scores EVER in a film. I know porn scores that would've worked better. In fact, I know of porn MOVIES that worked better, and, no, there is no nudity or sex, either. There is ABSOLUTELY no reason to see this, unless you just have to, like I did. Just make sure you rent it at a VERY reasonable price, because you will live to regret doing anything other than making yourself sit through it once for your cash. A real turd!

What do you get when you combine the acting/directing/scriptwriting of John Polonia and John McBride, along with the stunning visual effects of Phillip Ogden?

A steaming fen of cinematic s**t, that both amuses and enriches all movie watching after seeing this movie. I've rented this movie 8 times, and I have had all of my friends watch it, as well as my mother and uncle. It seriously is probably the funniest movie I've ever seen. You can't beat special effects that consist of someone drawing stuff on the film with a crayon...

And to all you guys who watch this movie...I have a few funny things you should watch for. Watch John Polonia's socks throughout the movie, especially during the scenes in which they run through the forrest. Watch closely the scene when John McBride gets out of the car to run into the doctors office. Watch closely the scene when they listen to the radio report in the car. Notice the pictures that John McBride takes at the flood site, and pay attention to what he says and than does in the next scene.

This movie is simply fraught with mistakes and bad effects...Just go rent it, you won't stop laughing.

I first discovered this truly amazing movie when my friend, Geraldo, came to me crying like a baby, but yet pausing between sobs to spit out, "This movie, it's, a gift from the heavens." But not till now, as I sit on the toilet, wondering what the jiminy craps it was that I just ate, did I understand just how deep Feeders touched me. From the tense, yet emotional opening scene involving character actor Gary LeBlanc's brilliant portrayal of the hopeless romantic Ranger Gordon, to the nail biting finale involving Broadway veteran Mark Polonia (who just recently wrapped up starring in the national tour of CATS as Rum Tum Tugger) and the amazing Jon McBride, the 1987 Acadamy Award winner for Best Actor as Locker Room Guy #24 in "The Running Man". This movie also has a strong supporting cast, like Grant McDoogle as Skip, the lovable, but aggressive swim coach who just can't seem to get past the fact that he hates the water or Pepe Johnson as Alien #12, who strangely resembled Rocky Alexander as Alien #42, but who cares, this movie was spectacular. A must see for all fans of such movies as "CRAP", "CRAP II: THE CRAPPIER", and "COMPLETE WASTE OF FILM". Don't miss this historical cinematic treasure, this film that will one day be called an epic, this film that us mere mortals know as "FEEDERS".

Ed Wood wrote a script over the top and cheesy-Feeders script is downright bare-bones stinky and laughable. Ed Wood took at least a few actors with some ability and ended up with a bunch of Michael Kaines compared to this film! I work at a video store and this is the only film in the 4 years I've worked there where someone came in upset saying they wanted their money back---To quote the gentleman "This is the worst piece of **** I have ever seen" Because of that, I checked it out-and have done so numerous times to show to friends and watch the disbelief on their faces.

I am not sure how this movie even made it into the legitimate movie rental store I got it from. This is quite possibly brings the standards for amateurs to an all-time low. Grainy picture, acting that would have a middle-school drama teacher in tears, and "special-effects" that could be reproduced on a computer from the 80's. HOWEVER, this was also one of the funniest things I have ever seen, and I would recommend getting it if you get a kick out of terribly done movies.

this movie left me with my brain on fire. my nose was melting and my eyes were glazing over. puppets that look worse than puppets i could make while drunk. acting that was more like actors who weren't good at improv, trying to improve. drama that was about as dramatic as watching paint dry. UG

This film is the very definition of "b movie," and this isn't a bad thing (for that, see the sequel).

Little Feeders come to terrorize, and no one is safe...from this ridiculous film. It's the Citizen Kane of Paper Bag Puppet films. Take a paper bag, dip it in goop, and use sticks for arms and you've got yourself a bona fido Feeder.

What can be said about this film without laughing? The best scene of all involves photos of stuff to try to fool the watcher into thinking those places are in the movie.

This movie has to be seen to believed. Just don't continue the madness and see the sequel unless you hate yourself.

If you're a fan of B Horror films, why wouldn't you like this movie? This film has it all. From the corny but predictable story to its average yet acceptable acting. Feeders was worth making a sequel and hopefully another to complete the trilogy. Keep your eye open for John McBride who shows off his giant 80's hair style in this soon to be classic low budget flick.

I thought that Birdemic: Shock and Terror was the worst film I'd ever seen. Then I saw Feeders. I have never laughed so hard at the absolute ineptitude of these "film makers". It's the kind of film that, once you've seen it, you want to watch other people watch it. I want to see the look of incredulity on the faces of my family and friends. It is so unbelievably bad, you have to see it to believe it.

If you're feeling a bit down, or just in a bad mood, do yourself a favour and watch this film. I guarantee it will make you laugh. But if it doesn't, then you have no soul.

It's a shame that 1 is the lowest score, it really deserves a 0.

Ohh, Feeders.

I've posted some other comments here, but for some reason (though I've referenced this film in them) I haven't come back to this little beauty.

Feeders.

It must have been 96 or so, because dates escape me in my age (and from all the gasoline-milk mixtures I've had over that time), and my sister and I saw this . . . apocryphal miracle in the new releases section of a more-than-common video rental chain. How could we not have rented it?

Feeders. How I miss thee.

It's been a while since I've seen this, so bear with me. Lemme see. Some Commodore 64 special effects, hastily scribbled onto the film strip, signal that aliens have arrived . . . with the noble intention of brutally eating everyone they come across . . . or to burst out of their bellies . .. or to use 'lasers' to raze the whole planet . . . or to impersonate one of the heroic characters . . . any one, or all of these may be their master plan. Since obviously a higher power spurred the creation of this film, who am I to question the intricacies of the plot, me a simple heathen?

My absolute favorite scene is the one with the fat truck driver (well, he might not drive a truck, but I do recall him being obese). This man gets mauled by a 'feeder', and is rescued by the 'heroes', who rush him to a 'doctor', where he 'dies'. I say 'dies' because, as the doctor ceremonially intones 'I'm sorry, this man is dead', and reverently pulls a sheet over his body, THE MAN IS STILL OBVIOUSLY BREATHING -- QUITE DEEPLY! YOU CAN SEE THE SHEET MOVE, PEOPLE!!! Oh, but maybe that's a signal that the alien inside of him is about to burst out, via the magic of uber-superimposed (uberimposed?) post-production editing. The wound, literally, does not overlay the body. It is uberimposed.

Feeders . . . the one. The only.

Two other points -- one being the blowtorching of a 'feeder', which must have been the final scene, seeing as though the feeder puppet is totally ruined, which must have made the special-effects whiz who made it cry like a baby for hours and hours, what, not being told ahead of time that his hand-crafted buddy would be cauterized in such a horrible manner. And the straight-out-of 'Night of the Living Dead' scene with the corpse at the top of the stairs . . . and I mean that as in 'This Scene was directly sheared from the reel of Night of The Living Dead and messily inserted into Feeders', straight-out-of Night of the Living Dead . . .

Feeders . . . where for art thou on DVD? For I would own thee, verily, in a fortnight.

I heard there's a sequel. Taking place during Christmas. But I'll be a Warlord of the Deep if I can't find it here. Or something.

In summary, I would like to say that this movie is apocalyptical; to be collegiate (if at all), I use that term in it's original Greek sense, meaning, rending of the veil. If you see this film, firstly consider yourself lucky. That also means you might have seen other beauties, such as Parts: The Clonus Horror, or Judgment Night, or Rana: The Secret of Shadow Lake, or some other, horrible poison that I haven't sampled yet. And two, realize that, having seen it, you can never go back to how it was before. Now your veil has been torn asunder, and the guttural truth of life pours through . . . Feeders will ruin you, like it did me, with the fact that there are movies like this, being made by people, for some reason or another, and that the only solace comes from either seeing more or drinking the ever popular milkoline.

Feeders. God how I miss you.

One would have to travel for a lifetime, making stops only to use the bathroom and an occasional meal, to find a film that even resembles the genius of this film. The Polonia Brothers are the (and to paraphrase Roger Ebert)"Thinking man's Coen Brothers". Ripe with the essence of Life's little idiosynchracies, "Feeders" succeeds where lesser films such as, "Ordinary People", "American Beauty", and "Terms of Endearment" failed. If you only see one film for the rest of your pale life, die with a shred of dignity and view "Feeders".

This movie makes my brain hurt. It NEEDS to be on the worst movies of all time list. I fear that one day, someone might accidentally pick this movie up in the store without reading the review, and be forever mentally damaged. The only other scary thing about this movie is that it has a sequel. With santa.

Try and imagine all of the positive things one could possibly associate with a movie. Exciting plot, suspense, humor, good acting, cool looking special effects, etc. Its a very rare thing to find a movie that unintentionally contains absolutely NONE of these things. Feeders (and its sequel) are such movies.

I love watching bad movies. I usually find that the really bad special effects and the inept acting found in a lot of movies are hilarious. Although Feeders certainly contained horrible special effects and incompetent acting, there was nothing funny about this film.

After what seemed like five hours the movie finally came to an end. I wasn't angry that the movie sucked. I wasn't sad, or disgusted, or anything else. I wasn't really feeling any emotion at all. It was as if my soul had been killed. And for the rest of that day all of the happiness and color and joy in the world was dead to me.

Don't watch this film just to see how bad it is for yourselves. I did and I regret it.

This was probably the worst movie I've ever seen! Or the best bad movie. Either way, it was hilarious! The alien puppets and super-cheesy computer effects make this a sci-fi/horror movie not soon to be forgotten. Not since Ed Wood has someone achieved this level of filmmaking.

Lo and behold fair film viewers, just when you thought low-budget films couldn't get any more low budget, a little gem named "Feeders" happens along just in time. To be perfectly fair, the budget could not have been any more than $100 maximum, and the alien puppet visuals are so absurd they make for a laugh-out-loud riot fest of epic cinematic proportions. This is one of those movies you see at a local renting chain and feel the urge to rent it to see if it really is as bad as that reviewer told you it was. Believe me, this film really is terrible in every sense of the word. I hope for the love of God that the entire cast and crew was stoned each day while making it, otherwise it would've been a tedious experience for the hapless actors working on this celluloid waste (wait--VHS tape waste). There are a couple of rubber aliens who go mincing around the park area in the film, and they kill many things in the way, and they also attack two bozos on a road trip to the west. That is, I regret to inform, the extent of the plot for the cinematic travesty that is "Feeders". But please, if you insist on seeing this film, do so in the privacy of your own home where no one can see you watching this and blackmail you for it.

The Polonias were never good actors. Unfortunately one of them is taking most of the space in this flick.

I actualy like the effects. The aliens look perfectly fine for me, especialy for lower budget. The ufo looks pretty decent if you ask me. There are some pretty corny effects. My fav kill is of the coroner's.

The problem is the wasting of time in the car with Polonia and his friend. P plays a duche, and we never get free b00bs on the beach they planned to reach. That's a hugh problem, also that nothing happens with these two, they can't converse, and even the music is bad (both too loud and bad choice of track).

Strangely the bad quality only hurts the scenes with John P and his friend in their cabrio. The rest is perfectly fine, could have been a decent movie.

This revolutionary creation from the Polonia brothers defines budget- indie movies. Sure, the aliens are condoms with papier-mache, and yes their hands are radio antennas, and maybe some of the acting could be improved - but it's a really enjoyable film.

The acting quality makes it comical, but it's also quite suspenseful. Also, the special effects, (courtesy of paint), to show the wounds are something else. On a positive note - the CGI isn't half bad - considering it was done in the 90's by 2 people with a low budget...

It's definitely worth the watch as it isn't really as bad as people make it out to be.

This right here folks, this is what you call a quality bad movie. Everything that's shoddy about this movie only serves to making it more entertaining. At the time of (re)writing this review, I recently finished my second viewing of this cinematic marvel in order to properly compare it to its (inferior) sequel. It was every bit as good as I remember it being, if not better.

There are a myriad of elements worth mentioning: the acting, the time captions that make the movie look like a news report, the poorly CGI'd UFOs, the paper mache aliens, one which kills a guy by poking him in the neck (the sticks used to move his arms are too clear to miss), the abduction, the iconic hospital scene, the... actually... I should probably stop there. It's better you see this for yourself to fully grasp the power of these scenes anyway.

The only flaws are some drawn-out scenes where nothing happens, and the alien's growling which gets grating on the ears after a while.

Still though, I cannot comprehend how it is possible for any human being to hate this movie? Do you hate fun? Do you hate laughter? Joy? The fact that the Polonia Bros. were even born is solid evidence pointing towards the existence of an Almighty creator - or maybe two!

I heard that this movie, Feeders, was so bad that it had to be seen to be believed. I saw and now I believe. From the early Commodore Amiga computer graphics, to the stupid goofy looking alien creatures, this movie takes the grand prize in the crappy film category. No, I didn't forget about the cheesy acting, nor the fact that the background music blared loudly and drowned out much of the dialog. To sum it up, this movie really sucked.
