A few thoughts: A cheesy and accidentally funny horror movie about a bunch of people dressed as tiny imp gorillas that live in the walls of a house and terrorize the residents. This is the kind of garbage I watch, for some reason. The running time being roughly 75 minutes makes this an easy sort of thing to put on without having to make any sort of investment, and honestly that's one of the best things about it. This is a dumb movie with dumb characters who do dumb things while being tormented by dumb looking monsters. One thing that isn't dumb about it is the indoor lighting (the stuff that takes place outside at "night" is bad though), which is very reminiscent of Italian horror, skillfully implementing natural light with unnatural greens, reds, and blues. Not spooky in the least, thanks to the monstrous monster design (which is oddly adorable, I might add), but there is a sort of atmosphere that could have worked had they shrouded their villains in shadow and not given them as much face time. It's funny, pretty bad, and very easy to watch. So don't expect much.
I don't really know. Maybe this will be creepy to little kids? Anyone else will probably just find it accidentally humorous, like I did.
My grade: D+
