3.0 out of 5 stars Grows On You, October 5, 2010

GROWTH is a derivative, yet satisfying, fun watch. I rented the film. It isn't something I would own at a high price, but it was an enjoyable watch. Mircea Monroe just shines in this film and is a fantastic quirky character. The entire cast does a good job trying to take a typical plot and treat it with dignity and seriousness. The special effects are decent enough. The plot moves at a good pace. It does have a few holes, but this is an expectation in this type of film. It is a fun way to kill some time, but don't expect to be swept away.

4.0 out of 5 stars Open Wide And Say "AAAAAGGGGGHHHCCBBLLLRRZZT!"..., June 13, 2011

This review is from: Growth (DVD)

GROWTH is a sci-fi / horror film in the tradition of FLESHEATERS, BRAIN EATERS, SLITHER, THE HIDDEN, NIGHT OF THE CREEPS, etc., where parasites invade the bodies of the unwary, mutating them into automatons of doom. Jamie (Mircea Monroe) brings her boyfriend, half-brother, and best friend to an island she's inherited. Unbeknown-st to them, this island was the site of a biological disaster 25 years earlier, resulting in many deaths. Now, something is loose and Jamie and company are in for a rather disgusting shock! Not bad for a low-budget effort. The slippery critters are fairly well realized, but CGI always has that synthetic, cartoonish look...

3.0 out of 5 stars Not bad...creatures looks good, October 25, 2010

I was wondering why some scenes just kept going and going, but most of the movie
was pretty good, with good slug effects. Then if you look at the extras you can
see why. This is another ' dont have enough budget ' movie. They did'nt have much
and used all the tricks in the book to have this movie made with what they had.
I have to give all a thumbs up for the good work they did on the film, but the
end product suffers a bit due to all the shortcuts.
So in the end, its a pretty good movie, but i dont think i want to watch it a
second time.
