Attack of the Adult Babies

....says it all really!!! A crude, fun, gruesome, vulgar rollercoaster of a movie that I would definitely recommend to fans of obscure British horror. Just when you think you couldn't be shocked anymore, then comes the claymation scene, which was my favourite part! Bit of a disappointing ending, but the build up more than made up for that. Who would've thought that Paddy from Emmerdald had such a twisted sense of humour?! Well done to all those involved, will love to see what Joanne and Dominic come up with in the future.

The Adult Babies that is, in case you were wondering. Now the movie itself had the title "Attack of the Adult Babies" when it played at Frightfest, but just calling it Adult Babies makes more sense. Well if you can put this movie and sense in one sentence. That's actually almost impossible and very untrue/false. And despite any "moral" message this supposedly is giving us, there is not many merits to get from it.

Unless you set the bar really low and like practical effects that is. Especially the latter are the one thing that made me give it an extra point and not go for the lowest score. Having said all that, the filmmaker clearly wanted to make something people have fun with and there is one punch line (delivered by a Human Centipede "alumni") that made me laugh. So even if you don't like the movie like me, don't be mean to the people who made this. They are nice people and they just do what they like most, no matter how we perceive it. I'm saying this because some people attacked (verbally/written comments) the filmmakers personally and that is not cool at all.

So to sum up, some will like this, because it's brainless "fun" plus gore and won't mind the low quality in general. For everyone else: You should know after the trailer or after a couple of minutes ... don't put yourself through it

If I travel 40 years back and take this movie with me, there must be something fresh. Poor direction, acting, scripting, VFx etc. Makes it really boring to watch. A very non realistic gore scenes confuse you as if it was intend to be a comedy or real slasher. Avoidable movie.

Adult Babies tries way too hard to push the boundaries of shock and horror into the realms of farce. It does however succeed in moments, but as a whole the film is quite flawed. It seems desperate in its attempt to become a cult classic - and this its downfall - rather than be driven by a strong narrative that actually has some significant impact its just a series of badly-strung, cheap jokes that are mashed together.

Despite this, there are momentary glimpses of potential, and the plot, if nothing else, is fairly original.

If you look past the shock value you won't find much there - but if you take it with a grain of salt and look at it with a lighthearted glance you might get a few laughs over the sheer insanity it entails.

Whilst certainly *not* a film for the whole family to enjoy I'm sure some people out there will find it appealing. (To each their own).

3 Stars - *Just Plain Bad*

A fine grotesque movie - for certain not for the mainstream audience. Lot's of dark and bad taste humor, some splatter and gore and on top a well done production and well working cast.

What else!? If you like the horror unusual, this one may be made for you - if sexy nurses, rich men in diapers and slashing people (including a heist gone wild) sound attractive to you. Remembers me somewhat a little of Eat the Rich from 1987.
