Crabs!

I know what you're thinking... Another forgettable, low-budget comedy horror. But what if (stay with me for a second) it was actually really, really funny? And "unwoke" for a rare change? I hate to list that as a pro, but it's been exhausting over the last few years and we deserve a break.

Well then, thank God it's still OK to make fun of immigrants, as long as they're white, because otherwise we'd have never met Radu. Is he Russian? Bulgarian? I'm not sure it's ever specified. He starts as a side character, but quickly gets more and more screen time as the film progresses to the point where he actually performs the end credits song. And what a joy that is to listen to, without a hint of sarcasm.

I wonder if that was the filmmaker's plan all along, or if it became obvious they were on to a good thing with that character so started layering him in more. Regardless, we're all winners as a result.

But the dialogue as a whole is very funny, solid cast and passable special effects. Honestly, I turned this on as a "background" movie while futzing around the house, but quickly realized it was going to be way better than the average streaming schlock so sat down to watch.

Will there be a Crabs 2? I for one really frigging hope so, you dirty hole persons!

WOW!! As far as Gremlins rip-offs go, this is up there with the best!

Radu is not the character 2022 wanted but the character that 2022 needed!

What a absolute gem of a man, he can sing, swing swords and buy women with wrenches while making us laugh, cry and feel things we never thought we would feel ever again.

HIs ninja skills, drill using abilities and encouragement single handedly won the war! Like a god sent from the heavens he carried this film on his back like some kind of shell.

Oh and there was some crabs in it somewhere...

A fun throwback to little creature features such as Gremlins and Critters that is not as polished or extreme as it could be.

The acting is alright, with characters that are somewhat bland (with the exception of am offensive comic relief character called Radu, who while fun at times, is definitely too over utilized). But kudos for having a physically disabled character as the protagonist.

The effects are pretty impressive for a film of this budget but it goes too much into camp in the kaju type end sequence.

All in all a fun little romp, but don't go expecting too much.

Campy good fun. If you like to laugh and gross out -- highly recommended. The cinematography, production design, and acting is very good. The edit and score kept perfect pacing to the end. Good work!

It is ocean demons meets the "Gremlins", and then it is Godzilla's horseshoe crab meets the Iron Giant's nerdy brother, with all the zaniness, a pinch of the charm, and none of the sincerity. Who would have ever thought that Dwight Schrute's Ukrainian cousin, Radu, would steal the show? Straight out the gate, following an animated intro, we know we're in for some Sharknado realm calamity with a graphic sex scene and gory violence. It was an entertaining ride, except for the Lord's name used in vain, the overuse of F words and middle fingers, and the fact that EVERYBODY seems to smoke the weezy.
