Parasites

PARASITES has been bullied upon and unfairly tarnished by some of the reviews here. Seems to me if a picture was so bad as described therein, it would not generate any review at all; but that is not the case. Quite the contrary, PARASITES has had some extraordinary positive things said about it worldwide and PARASITES is at least an unforgettable and thought provoking story, whether you are open for it or not. It saddens me some so-called "reviewers" would go to the extreme measure of spoiling the films ending, for whatever reason, probably out of spite that the film actually got under their skin and bothered them; they do not know how to handle it, so they strike out like a spoiled child woken from a nap. Real adult viewers will be enriched by it all and be able to digest it for what it is, a bold, brave and perhaps true piece of great low-budget American film making by a promising director.

parasites! randomly came across this movie while searching for another one, glad i did. i always read SOME reviews for every horror movie I'm about to watch, never really giving any bad review a 2nd look. Id re-watch this movie just for the score, and id recommend this movie to anyone worthy because of the ending, an homage to a great film. go in with zero expectations, listen to a few dope monologues, and just enjoy.

Raw and guerrilla style filming. What a crazy ride.... this film makes you feel like you're in the dark streets of Los Angeles. I enjoyed everyone's acting and the dialogue seem very real. I really like the gory death scenes.

This film is going to make you uncomfortable. If you're a gore-hound or adrenaline junkie, you'll definitely get what you want. You'll also get a head full of disturbing social-psychological horror that will leave you thinking for days. The story seems simple at first. Three innocent young men run afoul of a violent homeless gang. But who's really innocent? Who really are the bad guys? The good guys? The situation gets more complex as the action ratchets up. The direction is excellent and unnerving. There's something unique about the look of a Chad Ferrin movie that I can't quite put my finger on. The acting is top-notch. I want to mention that the use of sound and music is excellent and jarringly effective--another hallmark of a Ferrin film. This is a terrific movie, but go in with your eyes open, or you're gonna get gut-punched. You probably will anyway.

I found this movie by chance and a good chance I did as I found this 80's style thriller very enjoyable from start to finish. I would not say much for the story but a little entertainer for a night in with a few cans of beer. Looking back I cannot say I could associate this with any film I have seen in the past but maybe there is something like it out there in somebody's old video collection. I would say if your an 80's kid into John Carpenters 'Assault on precinct 13 to Stephen Hopkins' Judgement Night, I believe you will enjoy it!
