The title is Cocaine Crabs from Outer Space, and that's EXACTLY what you get!
OK, I'm going to level with you. If the title appeals to you, check out the trailer. If it still looks appealing to you, it's going to be a hell of a good time. However, this isn't your type of movie, you're going to be MISERABLE!
This is without a doubt, a very low budget (probably $5000 or less) extremely independent horror comedy from the same director that brought you the preposterous and hilarious superhero comedy, Boardwithanailinitman!
Despite the low budget and ridiculousness of the movie, it's got humor that almost always hits, and the 2 main characters work well off of each other.
I HIGHLY recommend this film to lovers of low budget, self-aware, so bad they're good horror or comedies!
An extremely rare 10/10!

My girlfriend and I sat down to watch a movie and stumbled upon this work of art. I adore B movies and she agreed to give it a try.
When I say that this was a great film, I mean it. It took itself just the right amount of serious (not at all), had tons of laughs and had fun moments I will remember to come.
Some reviews for this movie are not so pleasant, but maybe they just weren't ready for the most beautiful passion project. A "Congratulations for quitting smoking" cake for a baby IS funny, if you came for a movie with Hollywood budget, what did you expect when you saw plastic crabs? 10/10.

First off, one simply can not and should not expect much from a literal No-budget film called, "Cocaine Crabs From Outer Space." If you go into it thinking it's going to be anything but bad, you need to adjust your expectations.
I went into it expecting the worst but hoping for the best. It was somewhere within that realm.
"Attack of the Killer Tomatoes" had 1,000 times more production value than this. The acting wasn't intentionally bad, it was just bad. I did chuckle a few times, and the press conference at the end was actually kind of funny. And once you reach the third act and have adjusted to the toy crabs with no movable parts and the overwhelming cheapness of this opus, it gets easier to hang in there until the end.
This IS a terrible movie, make no mistake. And I really wish reviewers who give it a 10 would please not do that, because you're only screwing with the system. Look, there's absolutely nothing wrong with presenting a low-sorry-NO budget movie as long as it has some entertainment value. "Cocaine Crabs From Outer Space" really didn't bother me in its awfulness, because in spite of it all, it still entertained me. I got the joke, I didn't expect much. I think 4 is a fair score.

Do you like underground, B Rated films? We'll guess what? It's not even B Rated. It's like Z Rated.
It's like someone just filmed everything on an iPhone and they didn't even know how to use an iPhone because they're used to pagers.
It was just so bad. So so bad. It's got it all:
-Unfocused shots -horrible cuts and editing -do you like the sound of wind? Cause there's a lot of that!
And the budget? Must have been $100.
I'm not gonna do any spoilers or anything cause I'm not that guy, so if you're REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY bored, go for it.
3/10 (on here. 2/5 normally)
Only gave it 3 because I dig homemade movies, but man, it's bad!

HEY EVERYBODY ITS ME (4) and today we review ....my last diagnosis ....THE MOVIE !!!
Dont cha just hate when you get crabs ? ... well maybe not in this case ... SO here we have ...WOW the definition of a B-film ....this almost seems like one of the many drug fueled animals films that have been coming out lately since COCAINE BEAR you say ? .... well this predates that movie by a whole year ? ... yea so who ripped off who mr.bear ? ... now this here crabs from space eating the mountains of snow ....is ...low budget for sure ...so low in fact i have a feeling they literally found some plastic crabs at the local thrift shop and said " you know what ... i can make a movie out of that" .. BAM ...here we all are ... and i can respect that... (thats literally how my "season of the witch was born lol)
SO lets get to it shall we ? ... the story is loose ...just randomly tossed together enough to make something make sense .....the acting is terrible ....the FX are - PLASTIC CRABS ..and some REALLY bad green screen ....its out of focus sometimes (i know how that goes for sure lol)... this movie is great ... it KNOWS what it is and doesnt try to be anything else ....and THAT makes a good movie ... the biggest problem indie films make is trying to be a million dollar film when they are a 100 dollar film ... BE funny ...BE rough around the edges ....BE yourself ... and own it .... this movie has fun, it is fun , its silly (obviously) ...i give mad respect to these people, everyone involved did a great job , its not easy making this stuff happen so you all get a gold star ....
7/10
the colors are nice by the way ... sound is good ...
