Tagline: Are you eating it or is it eating you?

Plot: A new ice cream-like product becomes immensely popular, taking the entire country by storm. Finding their livelihood threatened, a group of ice cream moguls employ an industrial saboteur (Moriarty) to uncover the creamy sensation's ultrasecret formula. Teamed with a fallen cookie entrepreneur, he learns that, although it doesn't have any calories, the stuff possesses one highly undesirable side-effect; it turns people into murderous zombies. With time running out, the two must wrest the world from the grip of this deadly delight. High camp humor is employed to the extreme in this schlock classic from genre guru

external linkA really cheesy and entertaining movie. If you enjoyed the Blob remake that came out of the 80s then you'll probably like this film. Watch it with an open mind. 6/10


external linkWhat we have here is a good premise given poor execution as the whole thing just feels pretty shoddy with moments of poor editing, a few really lousy moments, a fairly lame finale and effects that are only so-so. 1/4

external linkIt's "Invasion of the Body Snatchers"-meets-the Pepsi Generation-meets-"The Blob." There's some cool effects: The Stuff crawls out of people's wide-open mouths and at one point the crap even drowns a man to death.

external linkThis movie is hilarious! Doesn't really show much script wise, but it's so funny. Anyone who likes some of the lesser-known films of the 80's might appreciate this little gem. 3/5
