Creature from the Hillbilly Lagoon (2005)
Shock-O-Rama Cinema
R1 / NTSC DVD
Director: Richard Griffin
Writer: Richard Griffin, Lee Smith & Andrew Vellenoweth.
Starring: Andrew Vellenoweth, Tanith Fiedler & William DeCoff.
A small group of eco-friendly college students head out to the backwoods to run some tests on the local water supply when the trip goes horribly wrong. A group of hillbillies are being chased by some kind of mutant fish-man and both groups find themselves on the run, fighting together in order to survive.
When the "cavalry" is called in to contain the situation they also become moving targets! All hell done broke loose in the hills t'night I tell ya what!!
Wow, this was a shitload of fun. The monsters in this were excellent, they reminded me of C.H.U.D., the gore was gross and meaty and there were sister humpin' inbred hillbillies! Throw in some garish lighting and zany comic-style animated cell sequences ala Creepshow and a pierced, tattooed hottie and you've got yourself Creature from the Hillbilly Lagoon!
After seeing this I'd say I'm definitely looking forward to griffin's upcoming film, The Dunwich Horror.

The Straight Dope:
Two "Creature from the Black Lagoon" spoofs in the same year? POPcinema are mad! Mad I tells ya! Out of the two (Splatter Beach being sorta one of them) I'd say this is the far superior sea-creature spoof. I really enjoyed myself while watching this and I'll definitely watch it again some time. You may find yourself slightly offended by the hillbilly stereotypes but you'll get over it considering you've only got enough brain power to breath.
Sorry, hillbilly joke. Anyhow you've gotta check this out, it was impressive.
Speaking of impressive, check out Tanith Fielder when the clothes come off! HOTTIE!!
Blurbtastic:
"Bloody good! ranks up their with Creature from the Black Lagoon and The Host!"
Movie: 3 / 5
