Crabs!

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.

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...

Regular standard creature feature B movie that is by all means, pretty fun. Monsters, weed, prom setting, mostly likeable characters, hot teachers, practical effects. Pretty fun... for the most part. I'd have given this movie a 5, except for one thing:

Radu

Radu SUCKS. This dude is painfully unfunny, and the movie chooses to keep him around WAY longer. They insist upon him being in every scene he can. They even do a fakeout death, from there I was hoping it would be good from there on out but he just keeps coming with his dated "foreign and maybe mentally slow" humor that would fit better in a 2001 movie like American Pie rather than this.

Like I said, would be a 5, but it's getting a 3 because Radu is THAT bad.

In the quiet seaside town of Mendocino, California, people are having their faces eaten off by horseshoe crabs that were irradiated by the collapse of a nuclear plant, are confronted by these crabs. Radu, a foreign exchange student, Maddy, Annalise, Philip and his brother Hunter have to stop smoking weed and getting drunk. They need to find a solution. This is the perfect B-movie to relax. Yes, the CGI is poor but the acting is good. And an excellent acting performance from Chase Padgett (Radu). Do not get your hopes too high but you will enjoy this movie. This movie reminded me of Gremlins, Godzilla vs. King Kong, Jaws and Transformers. Another reason to watch: Imorium Clustergram and the famous horseshoe crab. Don´t tell me you don´t want to know what these two are? Just watch it and relax.

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!
