Just watched the new Saturn's Core release of this SOV horror film directed by the eccentric David "The Rock" Nelson. I was unfamiliar with Mr. Nelson prior to this release but was aware of this title because how could I not be. It mainly consists of Conrad and his brother chasing down a werewolf in a cemetery (in broad daylight) with plastic Uzis and baseball bats. This movie is unsurprisingly pretty terrible, but I couldn't help but to laugh along with the movie. It has that DIY Don Glut energy of pure Monsterkid joy which I found infectious, but instead of being made by teenagers, it's by old men running around in a graveyard with a cheap werewolf costume. But the movie itself has it's tongue planted firmly in it's cheek. It's clear that they spent a day or two having a blast making a silly monster movie capitalizing off of Brooks' namesake. And boy, Brooks makes damn sure you knew he was in Plan 9 in this film. I still haven't checked out the deleted scenes also on this disc, but I can't imagine what DIDN'T make it into this.
