Movies I Want CoMiC to Review
Note:
This was written from Friday March 27, 2026 to Sunday March 29, 2026, before I posted my 199th post and 200th post. It was also written when I still didn’t have Internet ๐, after it was shut off by T-Mobile on Tuesday February 17, 2026. So, keep in that mind while you’re reading, it will still be a work in progress by the time I get it onto my blog. I’ll probably have to make some changes to it if I write something that I can’t research or check without Internet ๐. Hopefully I’ll be able to make the changes a lot sooner than that, whenever I have a decent Wi-Fi connection ๐, if I go somewhere with free Wi-Fi ๐.

Well, I just finished my post recommending movies for Double Toasted ๐ to review on their channel (either as a Bad Movie Roast/Bad Movie Review or Retro Review). It took me three days to write it, from Tuesday March 24, 2026 to Thursday March 26, 2026, because I ended up writing a lot more stuff than I thought I would, I included a lot more movies than I originally added to the list of movies I wanted them to review, a lot of movies I didn’t think while I was initially putting that list together. But, it also took a lot shorter than I thought it would. When I started writing it, and it ended up being a lot longer than anticipated, and I knew it was going to take me longer than a day to finish it, I was worried it was going to take me a whole week to finish it, and then I was going to have to dive into my Cowboy Bebop (1998) review, but no, it ended up only taking three days. Probably because I didn’t add too much extraneous shit that really didn’t have anything to do with the post, the topic at hand, except for maybe the stuff about Iran ๐ฎ๐ท, but the only reason I went off on that tangent is that I mentioned politics because Double Toasted ๐ do talk about politics quite often. More often than you’d think.
Not about that kind of stuff, more so domestic stuff, but still, they do talk about politics. They do get political. Maybe a bit too political for some of their viewers’ liking, but I don’t mind it. I actually like it when they talk about politics, and they’re able to be more real and authentic, instead of ignoring politics, ignoring what’s going on in the world, and just pretending nothing’s happening and focusing on movies. I don’t really like it when reviewers do that, especially if it’s a really big issue that’s affecting a lot of people, that’s affecting the whole country, and the whole country’s on fire ๐ฅ, and they’re like that dog ๐ in that meme going, “Yeah, this is fine.” Far too many Americans ๐บ๐ธ are doing that right now, when we are very much not living in “normal times”…if there ever was such a thing. One person’s “normal times” is another person’s “crazy times.”
Before I dive into my Cowboy Bebop (1998) review, I thought I would take the time to quickly write another one of these posts for another YouTuber, another movie reviewer that I’ve grown quite fond of over the past year or so, CoMiC, a day after finishing the post on Double Toasted ๐. That’s going to be a huge project, the Cowboy Bebop (1998) review, I won’t be surprised if it takes me a week or two to write it. It’ll certainly take me a week to watch the entire series from start to finish, along with the bonus material that’s on the fourth and final disc ๐ฟ on the Complete Series Blu-Ray release ๐ฟ. And I got to watch the movie, Cowboy Bebop: The Movie, and watch whatever special features are available on that to get as information about the production that I can so my review will be well informed. And then I gotta watch a longplay or at least watch the cutscenes for the PS2 game, Cowboy Bebop: Serenade of Reminiscence, which wasn’t released in North America and was only released in Japan ๐ฏ๐ต. So, English speaking fans of the anime couldn’t play the game. There were other Cowboy Bebop games before Serenade of Reminiscence, on the PS1, but that’s the one is generally considered to be the best, and it’s actually canon to the series. In the same way that Futurama game is considered canon to the series. We even got three original songs from that game that are not included anywhere else, and can only listened to on the Tank! The! Best! album, which is a compilation album of all the best songs that were featured in Cowboy Bebop (1998) (according to the people who put the album together), and they just decided to throw the three songs that were featured in Serenade of Reminiscence on that album. In case you’re wondering, if you’ve never played the game, or watched the cutscenes online, or even heard of it at all, those three songs are “Diamonds ๐,” “Pearls,” and “Einstein Groovin’.”
Those songs are actually tied to the plot of that game, at least “Diamonds ๐” and “Pearls” are. That game has a couple of subplots, and Spike’s plotline has to do with him helping this guy ♂︎ find a mysterious song called “Pearls.” Because only “Diamonds ๐” was ever released to the public, or is known to the public, but the artist who did that song made a second song that is a direct counterpart or companion piece to “Diamonds ๐,” “Pearls.” And this guy ♂︎ wants to find that song since he’s such a fan of the song “Diamonds ๐” and of the artist who did it, and Spike decides to help him for whatever reason. Maybe because he’s bored and had nothing else better to do. While “Einstein Groovin’” is just the song that plays over the end credits, though Yoko Kanno, and the band she created to compose the music for Cowboy Bebop (1998) and anything Cowboy Bebop related, Seatbelts did sample the “Diamonds ๐” song while composing the “Einstein Groovin’” song. But, I think I can wait on that part of the review for when I actually have Internet ๐, and focus on the series and the movie for now because those are what I have access to at the moment. The review won’t even go up until after I post my 199th post and 200th post, and all the other posts I wrote in advance of those including this one ๐, so I’ve got plenty of time. No rush.
So, before I dive into that huge project that will take me weeks to complete probably, it would be to do something a lot smaller and will take me less a week to finish, maybe a couple of days at most. But, before I start listing off the movies I want CoMiC to review, I should probably explain who CoMiC is for those who are unfamiliar with him. This isn’t like with the Brandon Tenold post or the Double Toasted ๐ post where they’re both fairly well known, at least within their own little corners of the Internet ๐, and anyone who will read those posts will probably be familiar with their work already. But CoMiC is still a pretty small YouTuber, he’s still a pretty small creator. He hasn’t even hit 20,000 subscribers at the time of me writing, but he is growing fast, he’s building up an audience and I’m sure he’ll get there in no time. So, there will be a lot more people unfamiliar with him and his work than either Brandon or Double Toasted ๐.
Basically CoMiC is a British YouTuber ๐ฌ๐ง who mainly reviews creature features (movies where a creature or creatures are the killer or killers rather than a human or human-looking character like in a slasher film), though he will occasionally do slasher films like the Wrong Turn movies or the Jeepers Creepers movies. His channel name is actually just full name abbreviated, Count of Monti Chris, which is in all caps, CHRIS. So it’s almost like he was destined to become a comedic YouTuber. He doesn’t do any storylines or sketches in his reviews, he just talks about the movie he’s reviewing in that video, and makes jokes about it along the way. Though he does change the names of the characters in the movies he talks about, and will change certain plot points within the movie he’s reviewing in that video. And he does have a couple of characters, Ken, who is a talking stuffed rabbit ๐, and Lieutenant Bacon ๐ฅ, who is a stuffed pig/armadillo hybrid ๐. I’m surprised he named him Lieutenant Bacon ๐ฅ and not Leftenant Bacon ๐ฅ, considering he’s British ๐ฌ๐ง. But, Ken’s the one he interacts with the most and does all the talking.
He’s also kind of the mascot for the whole channel. Him and CoMiC have an interesting dynamic with each other, where Ken’s usually shown as the smart one and CoMiC the dumb one. Ken’s the real brains ๐ง of the operation. They’re pretty fun to watch, they’re a nice little comedy duo. The best things I can compare CoMiC to in terms of what his content’s like are the two YouTube channels, RedEye Reviews and Space Ice ๐ง, where they talk about a movie and kind of change the title or change the plot to make it seem like it’s about something else. Usually something more silly and ridiculous because these are supposed to be comedic videos. What RedEye Reviews and Space Ice ๐ง do for action movies, CoMiC does for creature features. Though CoMiC definitely puts his own spin on the formula, on that type of review. I like watching his content, and am currently subscribed to him, because I just think he’s funny ๐, his videos are pretty entertaining. I watch them when I’m boring and I need something to watch, or I watch them while I eat.
I even saved a few of them onto my external hard drive, my Backup Plus, I downloaded them off the Internet ๐ using these free online downloaders, because I don’t have any Internet ๐ at home, and I want to continue watching his reviews, at least my most favorite ones, though I did manage to download a couple of his new ones like his review of Komodo vs. Cobra ๐, his review of Grizzly Rage ๐ป, his review of Boar ๐ (2017), and his review of Big Ass Spider ๐ท️ (yes, that really is the name of the movie), all of which are pretty good ๐. Well done, CoMiC if you’re reading this. And I like creature features, so really it’s perfect. If you want to know what my favorite review of CoMiC’s is, it would have to be the Boa vs. Python review. It was the review that convinced me that he a reviewer worth watching. And while I have enjoyed all the other reviews he’s done so far, the movies he’s covered on his channel thus far (he’s good at reviewing movies that I never even heard of let alone seen and wouldn’t have even thought of), there are a few movies that I want him to cover that I’m unsure are on his radar yet or has them on his schedule or list or whatever. I can’t directly request a movie to him both because my Internet ๐ is off right now (at the time of me writing this), and I don’t have the money ๐ต to avoid buying a Channel Membership, which is how you can request movies for him to watch and review. So, I’m doing this instead.
It’s just like when I wrote the Brandon post, I wrote it because I didn’t have a Patreon to join his Patreon page and directly request a movie for him to review. I have a Patreon now, but I’m only able to get the free membership, I don’t have any money ๐ต to join any of his tiers, especially the one where you can request movies for him to review. That tier has limited slots, and they’re all filled. So, even if I had the money ๐ต, I still probably wouldn’t be able to join that tier. I wasn’t originally going to do this, and just leave a few comments, requesting movies for CoMiC to review on the current review he’s uploaded for the week, until I realized that I had a lot more movies that I wanted him to cover than just a couple or a few that I could just leave in a few comments. So, I’m writing this instead. It has to be a full blog post. There’s no other option. It’s crazy after this post, I will have completed a whole trilogy of posts where I recommend, or rather request, movies for my favorite movie reviewers to review, and with each one representing a different country. Brandon representing Canada ๐จ๐ฆ, Double Toasted ๐ representing the United States ๐บ๐ธ, and CoMiC representing the United Kingdom ๐ฌ๐ง. It’s funny how that worked out.
Unlike with the previous two posts I’ve done like this, I didn’t create a list beforehand of all the movies I want to CoMiC to review, and I’m just going off that list. I’m going to be writing more of the cuff with this post, just any movie that comes to mind that I want him to review. I might just end up going off my own list of movies, shows, and games that I want to review, and just pick movies that I have on that list that CoMiC hasn’t already reviewed. Or I can check the bookmarks on Firefox to see what movies I have saved on there that I perhaps haven’t added to my list yet. Because even though I don’t have Internet ๐ I can still access the homepage on Firefox and access all of my bookmarks, I just can’t actually visit any of the webpages I bookmarked. And it’ll be strictly creature features in this post because that’s mostly what CoMiC covers on his channel. I don’t want to recommend or request a movie on his channel that he wouldn’t even consider. CoMiC found his niche, and he’s sticking to it, and I respect that.
And out of respect, I will only recommend/request creature features or creature feature adjacent movies. You’ll see what I mean when you read it. Since CoMiC’s a much smaller channel compared to either Brandon or Double Toasted ๐ (Double Toasted ๐’s by far the biggest channel out of the three I’ve these type of posts for), there is a pretty good chance that he’ll actually read this if I tell him about it, so CoMiC if you’re reading this, hi, welcome to my blog, I hope you enjoy your stay and will consider my other posts. And I hope you take all of the movies that I mentioned in this post into consideration to review. I know there’s a good chance you’ll get to all of these eventually, but I want to make sure I actually request these movies to you so that you’ll know to consider them or do them someday. Oh, and if he happens to review any of the movies mentioned in this post before it goes up on this blog, that’s fine, I’ll still post it. So, without further ado, let’s get on with it.
I’m going to start off with a couple of movies that I mentioned in my Double Toasted ๐ post, and it’s fitting because they’re the two South Korean movies ๐ฐ๐ท I have on this list (I have more but let’s just go with it): Dragon Wars: D-War ๐ and The Host (2006). I’ll start with Dragon Wars ๐, Dragon Wars ๐ is a movie that I’ve written my own review already but I want other people to review because it seems so few people have actually talked about this movie and done videos on it. I want Brandon to do a video on it, I want Double Toasted ๐ to do a video on it, and I want CoMiC to do a video on it. Because while it’s not a great movie, in fact, it’s not even a good movie in my estimation, it still has cool stuff in it, and it has stuff in it that someone with a lot of comedic talent, a lot of comedic chops like CoMiC could make some jokes about. I think CoMiC could make a pretty entertaining video out of Dragon Wars ๐, as well as the other movie that director made, Yonggary (1999) AKA Reptilian. In fact, he’d probably have much more to work with on Yonggary (1999) than Dragon Wars ๐, but I still want him to cover Dragon Wars ๐.
The next one up is The Host (2006), which is much more of the type of creature feature that CoMiC usually does on his channel than Dragon Wars ๐ is, which is more of a fantasy epic/kaiju film. Unlike Dragon Wars ๐, or even Yonggary (1999), The Host (2006) doesn’t feature any English speaking actors. I mean, it does, but it’s only a few (about three English speaking actors in the whole movie), and it’s mostly a Korean cast ๐ฐ๐ท and the movie is mostly in Korean ๐ฐ๐ท. That might make it a challenge for CoMiC in terms of how to tackle it because thus far, he hasn’t covered any movie that isn’t primarily in the English language. So, would he do the subtitled version of this movie or the dubbed version. It would probably be a lot easier to make jokes about the dubbed version, not that dub is that bad (at least in my opinion), but it has a lot more opportunities for comedy since the dub definitely plays up the comedic aspect of the movie, and it’s also kind of unintentionally funny ๐ in some parts. Whereas the Korean subtitled version ๐ฐ๐ท isn’t. I don’t know, I’ll leave that up to CoMiC to decide on which one to do if he decides to do The Host (2006), but I really want him to do that movie because I think it’s pretty cool. It has a cool monster, and it’s just a good movie overall. That Bong Joon-ho man, he sure can cook.
The next one up is not a single movie, or a couple of movies, but a whole series of movies: the Maneater series. CoMiC has already done one of the movies in the series, Grizzly Rage ๐ป, which he didn’t like very much. But now he has to do the other films in the series. I even told him this in a comment that I left on the Grizzly Rage ๐ป video, as well as mentioning the 2010 movie, Bear ๐ป, as a killer bear movie ๐ป that’s worse than Grizzly Rage ๐ป. I still want him to review that movie too, even though it’s pretty bad. But you know, he’s willing to suffer a bit for our entertainment. I should probably explain the Maneater series a bit to people who are unfamiliar with it, which probably includes CoMiC. Basically, the Maneater series is a series of films put out by RHI Entertainment for the Sci-Fi Channel, or Sci Fi as it was just known back then. It is an anthology series, meaning that none of the films within the series are connected to each other narratively, they just share an overall theme, which is just man-eating creatures. Some of those man-eating creatures include real animals, while others are mythological creatures or even cryptids. Like they made one about a yeti, called Yeti: Curse of the Snow Demon ❄️, and then they made one about the Jersey Devil called Carny (2009), which actually stars Lou Diamond Phillips, the same guy ♂︎ that was in Bats ๐ฆ (1999)…and also Young Guns, Young Guns II, and La Bamba, those too I guess. Because the films don’t share much of a connection with each other outside of having a similar theme, you could watch any one of these films without even knowing they’re apart of singular series.
Like CoMiC probably didn’t know that Grizzly Rage ๐ป was part of a larger series when he watched and reviewed it, until people like me told him in the comments. The way you can tell if a movie’s apart of the Maneater series is if it has a little sticker on the DVD cover ๐ that has a skull and crossbones ☠️ on it and says Maneater on it. They put that sticker on all of the DVD releases ๐ in this series. And I do mean DVD ๐ since these movies were never given HD releases, on either Blu-Ray ๐ฟ or 4K Ultra HD ๐ฟ, which didn’t exist as a format back then when this series was in its heyday, when these films were actually being produced. It actually is a clever idea to do an anthology series of creature features, even if the quality varies widely between each of the films, with some being better than others. Like for me, the 2007 movie, Maneater ๐
, the namesake of the entire series, is pretty bad, I didn’t like it that much at all, but I enjoyed Wyvern a lot more. It certainly has a funny moment at the end when they actually kill the wyvern by tricking it into attacking an RV that’s on cruise control, and the GPS is on, when the RV drives off a cliff with the wyvern holding onto it, the GPS says “destination” and the creature dies when the RV hits the ground ๐, even though it can fly because it’s a wyvern ๐. They didn’t even clip its wings or anything, its wings are still intact, so it easily could’ve jumped off that RV and flew away when it went over the cliff, but for some reason, it didn’t. I guess CoMiC will determine on his own which movies in the series are good and which ones are bad if and when he reviews them. I won’t list all the movies here because there are so many movies in the series, and I don’t have Internet ๐ to go and write them all down. But I have named a few of them here already, and if you want to know all the movies in the series, just look it up on Wikipedia, they have all the movies listed on the Wikipedia page for the series.
The next couple of recommendations or requests are also series, or rather one of them is a trilogy, but still. Starting off, we have the Mega Shark ๐ฆ series, which includes Mega Shark Versus Giant Octopus ๐ฆ๐, Mega Shark Versus Crocosaurus ๐ฆ๐, Mega Shark Versus Mecha Shark ๐ฆ, and Mega Shark Versus Kolossus ๐ฆ. Mega Shark Versus Giant Octopus ๐ฆ๐ is actually the movie I chose to do for my 199th post after I couldn’t get Anaconda (1997), and The Simpsons Movie is the movie I chose to do for my 200th post. I’m only mentioning that because I know CoMiC is a huge Simpsons fans because he uses a lot of Simpsons clips in his videos. Are you excited for The Simpsons Movie 2 if you’re reading this, CoMiC? Well, even if you’re not, you can still check out my review of the first Simpsons movie, it’ll probably be up by now by the time this finally goes up. But I think the Mega Shark ๐ฆ movies would be pretty good picks for him to do on the channel, I’m sure those movie have a lot to provide as far as material goes. I know Mega Shark Versus Giant Octopus ๐ฆ๐ will for me, when I’m finally able to rewatch it and finish working on the review. And it’s especially fitting because CoMiC did all of the Sharknado ๐ฆ๐ช️ movies, and the Mega Shark ๐ฆ movies were made by the same company, The Asylum, so you gotta do them.
And if he does the Mega Shark ๐ฆ movies, then he can do Mega Python vs. Gatoroid ๐๐, which also stars Deborah Gibson just like Mega Shark Versus Giant Octopus ๐ฆ๐ and Mega Shark Versus Mecha Shark ๐ฆ does. The next one up is a trilogy, the Sharktopus ๐ฆ๐ trilogy, we got our first Roger Corman entry in this post. The Sharktopus ๐ฆ๐ trilogy are a trilogy of movies that I’m surprised don’t get talked about a lot more than they do. They, and the Mega Shark ๐ฆ movies, always get overlooked and overshadowed by the Sharknado ๐ฆ๐ช️ movies, I don’t know. They’re just as crazy. You know, you got a shark/octopus hybrid ๐ฆ๐ fighting other hybrids, like a Pteracuda (a pterodactyl/barracuda hybrid) and a Whalewolf (an orca/wolf hybrid ๐ซ๐บ). Like, what more can you want? And of course, while we’re still doing shark movies ๐ฆ, he’s gotta do Shark Attack 2 ๐ฆ and Shark Attack 3: Megalodon ๐ฆ, but I’m sure he will since he did Shark Attack ๐ฆ (1999). The Meg ๐ฆ movies starring Jason Statham would also be pretty fun, especially the first one, the first one is a lot better than the second one, Meg 2: The Trench ๐ฆ. But given CoMiC, I’m sure he’d able to make an entertaining review out of Meg 2 ๐ฆ even if it isn’t as good as The Meg ๐ฆ. So, I lied, I actually listed off three more series after the Maneater series.
To list off some more individual movies that are not connected to any larger series, I’ll start off with Parasite (2004). Not to be confused with the 2019 Bong Joon-ho movie, Parasite, which is why I put the year next to it to differentiate the two. I actually recommended or requested Parasite (2004) in a comment before on CoMiC’s review of Proteus (1995), so he knows about it, but I want to make it official by mentioning it here. The reason why I chose Parasite (2004) after seeing CoMiC’s review of Proteus (1995) is that it too is a creature feature set on an oil rig, only the creature in this movie is some kind of worm looking thing that looks like what would happened in a snake ๐ got Facehugged and then gave birth to a Xenomorph with no arms or legs, since Xenomorphs take on the physical characteristics of their hosts, as Alien 3 established. I did admittedly kind of mislead CoMiC a bit with my original comment because I told him that creature looked like a cross between a Xenomorph and a Licker from Resident Evil, and that’s not really what it is. It’s more of a worm or an eel type of thing as I mentioned. It has no arms or legs, so it can’t be like a Licker. So, sorry CoMiC if you’re reading this, I didn’t mean to mislead you like that.
But you’ll find out for yourself if and when you review this movie. The other difference between this movie and Proteus (1995) is that rather than being heroin smugglers who got stranded in the middle of the ocean after their boat ๐ฅ️ exploded ๐ฅ and then seek refuge on an oil rig that turns out to be both a research facility and abandoned because the creature killed everyone (and absorbed them into its biology, allowing it to take the form of them since it’s a shapeshifter), the characters in Parasite (2004) are regular oil workers as well as a group of activists who are responsible for every bad thing that happens in the movie because they tampered with the oil rig and shut it down because they’re environmentalists who don’t like fossil fuels ⛽️, they don’t like oil ๐ข️. But them shutting down the oil rig is what causes the creature to get into the facility and start killing everyone, and the activists end up having to team up with the oil workers to survive and hopefully kill this thing.
While we’re talking about movies set on oil rigs, Megalodon ๐ฆ (2002) would be a good one to cover. Even I plan on reviewing it someday. Like Proteus (1995), Megalodon ๐ฆ (2002) is set on an oil rig that’s actually a research station, only this one is near Greenland ๐ฌ๐ฑ, so they’re facing a Megalodon shark ๐ฆ in the middle of the Arctic, in the Greenland Sea. Though it could also be the North Atlantic, I don’t remember. It’s been awhile since I’ve seen this movie. Even though a real Megalodon ๐ฆ probably wouldn’t be able to survive in that freezing cold water ๐ฅถ๐ฆ since a lot of scientists speculate that the reason why the Megalodon ๐ฆ went extinct in the first place is at least partly due to declining temperatures. Megalodons ๐ฆ mostly lived in warmer waters ๐ฆ during their time in the Miocene and Pliocene, and when the water ๐ฆ got colder ๐ฅถ, they couldn’t adapt quickly enough and died out. There were other factors too that led to the Megalodon ๐ฆ’s extinction, but the lowering temperatures was a huge contributing factor according to most paleontologists. So, you’re telling me that a Megalodon population ๐ฆ not only survived into the modern day, but they live in the freezing waters ๐ฅถ๐ฆ around Greenland ๐ฌ๐ฑ? Get out here with that. Now this movie often gets confused with Shark Attack 3 ๐ฆ since they came out the same year, but I can assure you, they’re two completely different movies. They just happen to both be about Megalodons ๐ฆ.
But, tonally and stylistically, they couldn’t be further apart. While Shark Attack 3 ๐ฆ is more intentionally silly and has fun with its concept, Megalodon ๐ฆ (2002) takes itself a lot more seriously. It really thinks it’s doing something. And while the Megalodon ๐ฆ in Shark Attack 3 ๐ฆ is mostly portrayed through stock footage of real Great White sharks ๐ฆ that were digitally manipulated and superimposed onto the footage, except for the end where it is portrayed with CGI, the Megalodon ๐ฆ in Megalodon ๐ฆ (2002) is 100% CGI. In fact, all the creatures in the movie are CGI, because there’s more creatures in the movie besides the Megalodon ๐ฆ, except for that killer fish ๐ that they bring on board the oil rig that bites one of the main characters’ arms. In the Scene Selection on the DVD ๐, I remember that fish ๐ was referred to as a “killer cod,” but I don’t remember if that fish ๐ actually is supposed to be a cod or not. But there is a jellyfish-looking thing ๐ชผ in the movie at point, so that’s cool. There’s even a shot that is identical to one in Deep Blue Sea, where the shark ๐ฆ swims into frame from behind, and we see the back of it, its tailfin. They copied that shot almost exactly in Megalodon ๐ฆ (2002).
I mentioned that nearly all the creatures in the movie are 100% CGI, well the movie itself is almost 80 or 90% CGI. This movie uses a lot of CGI, and there aren’t a lot of live action elements. I bet a lot of times, the actors were acting in front of green screens ๐ฉ or blue screens ๐ฆ. It’s kind of Avatar (2009), James Cameron’s Avatar, where 80 or 90% of it is CG, and some of the creatures are bioluminescent. Only here it makes sense since this takes place in the actual ocean, where bioluminescence is more common. It wasn’t just James Cameron just shoving bioluminescence everywhere he could because he thinks it looks cool or looks pretty, they actually had a reason for it to be there. Yes, I know the second Avatar, Avatar: The Way of Water ๐ฆ took place in the ocean, but still, you get my point. Only it had like 5% of the budget, so it can’t get away with it by saying the CGI’s good because it’s not, it’s pretty bad.
They did not have the money ๐ต to do this movie nearly all CG and have it look good. They probably should’ve used a lot more practical effects. In fact, a lot of the times, the movie looks like PS2 cutscenes, which is fitting because it came out during the time the PS2 was out, and was the best selling console of all time. Still is I think. Well, at least it wasn’t in 3D, probably didn’t have anywhere close to the amount of money ๐ต to afford to shot it in 3D, not that 3D was a popular fad back in the early 2000s. 3D wouldn’t have its big resurgence until the late 2000s with the release of movies like Journey to the Center of the Earth ๐ (2008) (the Brendan Fraser one), Sea Monsters: A Prehistoric Adventure (a National Geographic documentary about prehistoric sea creatures primarily from the late Cretaceous that somehow got a major theatrical release), Coraline, and of course, Avatar (2009), the movie that truly kicked off the 3D fad of the late 2000s and early-to-mid 2010s.
I’d also include Tron: Legacy as an honorable mention because I believe it came out in 2010, the year after Avatar (2009) came out. So even though it was made while Avatar (2009) was being finished and had started its marketing campaign, it’s still a movie that popularized 3D. It’s certainly seen as an exemplar of 3D at its best, which isn’t a huge surprise since like Avatar (2009), it was actually shot in 3D. I think, if it wasn’t, then sure is one of the best 3D post conversions ever made. Since I mentioned it, Journey to the Center of the Earth ๐ (2008) with Brendan Fraser would actually be a pretty fun one for him to do, even it is more of a kid’s movie. There’s another movie that’s kind of set on an oil rig, I think, it’s called Sector 7. No, it’s not a movie about the secret Transformers organization from the first Michael Bay Transformers movie from 2007, it’s a South Korean movie ๐ฐ๐ท. I’ve never seen it, but I have heard of it, I know of it because of Carnage Counts’s video on it. But it looks pretty cool, it has a cool looking monster. But, I’ll only recommend if CoMiC decides he wants to do movies in languages other than the English language. That leave that up to him. But, if he does The Host (2006), then he definitely can do Sector 7.
Next I’d like to mention Red Water ๐ฉธ๐ฆ, which is another shark movie ๐ฆ, only this one takes place in a lake. So, it’s about a Bull shark ๐ฆ attacking people since Bull sharks are one of the few kind of sharks ๐ฆ that we know of that can swim in freshwater and saltwater. They’re also one of the more aggressive sharks ๐ฆ out there, being considerably more dangerous than either a Great White ๐ฆ or a Tiger shark. The males ♂︎ also have testosterone levels that are equivalent or even exceeding that of a male elephant ๐♂︎. So you know Bull sharks never suffer from low T or need to take testosterone supplements to restore their vigor like some middle aged and elderly guys ♂︎ do. And it also stars Lou Diamond Phillips. That’s the third creature feature that he’s been in that I know of. Why is he in so many of these? It’s always weird you see a pretty famous actor in a low budget creature feature like this. Especially one that only played on TV or was released direct-to-DVD ๐. And trust me, I got a few more of those in this list, but first ☝️.
You remember that movie, Frankenfish that CoMiC did a review of a while back? Well, it turns out that it isn’t the only killer Snakehead movie out there. It turns out there are a bunch of killer Snakehead movies, and all of them were inspired by the Maryland pond Snakehead fish incident. Including BTW Frankenfish. You knew you could make so many movies based on one single invasive species incident, one single scare surrounding a predatory fish that mostly unfounded. The Snakehead fish isn’t nearly as dangerous as it was made out to be at the time the incident took place. Like, it couldn’t jump on land, and crawl around for long periods of time. Even though that’s what a lot of these movies depict them doing. They didn’t even make one movie about the Asian giant hornet scare of the early 2020s, where a small population of Asian giant hornets established themselves in the Pacific Northwest region of the United States ๐บ๐ธ, before it was fully eradicated in 2024 before it could really get out of hand. Because these hornets threatened to cause major devastation of the environment and economy of the entire United States ๐บ๐ธ if they weren’t eradicated and if they had managed to spread to the rest of the country, where conditions were right to support them. I’m surprised no one took that and tried to make a movie out of that.
Sure, a movie based on an invasive species problem that happens where in the US ๐บ๐ธ outside of Florida is heavily reliant of timing, so if the timing’s off then, the movie won’t really work. It’ll already be outdated before it’s even released, and it’ll just look silly because it’s blowing something out of proportion, making a mountain of a molehill. But, even if no one made any movies about Asian giant hornets around the time the invasive species problem was happening in the Pacific Northwest, I still have a couple of killer wasp movies that I’d like for CoMiC to cover on his channel. So, I’m going to list them all here: Snakehead Terror, Swarm of the Snakehead, and Snakehead Swamp. Given what I’ve heard about these three movies, it seems like they’re all pretty bad, especially Swarm of the Snakehead, and Frankenfish is the best Snakehead movie that had been made after the Maryland incident. And it didn’t even have Snakehead in its title. So, CoMiC really did start out with the best. Though I’m sure he’d able to get some enjoyment out of Snakehead Terror, since out of three that I just listed, Snakehead Terror is the best. Even though it’s obviously not as good as Frankenfish. It’s also not the only movie in this post that has the word “Terror” in its title, or one of its titles. You’ll see in a moment.
Next, I’m going to recommend/request a couple of movies that I thought were part of the Maneater series, but actually aren’t. Loch Ness Terror AKA Beyond Loch Ness and Bering Sea Beast AKA Beast of the Bering Sea, which actually has a similar title to a movie that’s actually in the Maneater series, Sea Beast. Loch Ness Terror is pretty self-explanatory, it’s a movie about the Loch Ness Monster. You really don’t see too many of those even though the Loch Ness Monster is one of the most famous cryptids besides Bigfoot ๐ซ. One of the people who worked on Regular Show, Benton Connor made a cartoon pilot for Cartoon Network called Paranormal Roommates that was about a Bigfoot ๐ซ and a Loch Ness Monster (with a Scottish accent ๐ด๓ ง๓ ข๓ ณ๓ ฃ๓ ด๓ ฟ of course) living together in an apartment, with a human handler named Harvey, that’s how famous they are, and how well they go together like peanut butter and jelly, or coffee ☕️ and donuts ๐ฉ, or bagels ๐ฅฏ and cream cheese, or hot dogs ๐ญ and mustard. Not mayonnaise because CoMiC hates mayonnaise on hot dogs ๐ญ, and doesn’t think that they go together at all, and I agree. Putting mayonnaise on a hot dog ๐ญ should be punishable by death. But, the design of the Loch Ness Monster in Loch Ness Terror is pretty cool, and that’s reason enough for CoMiC to review. That, and the fact that they don’t make Loch Ness Monster movies that often. Bering Sea Beast on the other hand is about a vampiric sea monster that comes from, where else? The Bering Sea. So this movie probably takes place in Alaska, or somewhere in Canada ๐จ๐ฆ. I don’t know if this is a Canadian movie ๐จ๐ฆ or not, I wouldn’t be surprised if it was. I do got one confirmed Canadian movie ๐จ๐ฆ on this list, and I’ll get to it soon. But, my reason for picking Bering Sea Beast is the creature itself. Even though the creature’s all CG, it still has a pretty cool design, I haven’t anything else like it.
Moving on, while we’re on the subject of cryptids, another movie I’d like CoMiC to review is Bigfoot ๐ซ (2012), which stars Danny Bonaduce and features Alice Cooper of all people in a minor role. He plays himself in case you’re wondering, he’s basically performing at a concert that the Bigfoot ๐ซ crashes. I haven’t seen the movie, so his role might well be just a cameo. But besides its weird cast, the other reason why I chose this one is the Bigfoot ๐ซ itself. The Bigfoot ๐ซ, or Sasquatch ๐ซ, in this movie is way bigger than most other depictions of Bigfoot ๐ซ we often see in movies. This Bigfoot ๐ซ’s about 12 feet tall, or even 14 feet tall. He’s about as big as a Na’Vi from the Avatar movies, maybe even bigger. And for that reason, this Bigfoot ๐ซ is all CG. Which might be a dealbreaker for someone, I still think it’s pretty fun. It’s pretty cool. You gotta do this one, CoMiC, your life depends on it. Another Bigfoot/Sasquatch movie that would be fun for CoMiC to do would be Sasquatch Mountain ๐ซ⛰️, which is a movie I never saw, but is a movie I always saw at the video store, one of the ones in Grants, New Mexico.
It stars Lance Hendrikson, who was in the Bigfoot movie ๐ซ that CoMiC reviewed on his channel already, Abominable (2006), which Brandon also reviewed. To transition smoothly away from the cryptid related movies, I’ve got King of the Lost World, which is an Asylum ripoff of the 2005 remake of King Kong by Peter Jackson. Besides it being King Kong ripoff (as a Lost ripoff), the other reason why I want CoMiC to do this one is the cast, the cast once again. You got Bruce Boxlietner, best known for being in Tron and Babylon 5, and Steve Railsback, best known for being in Nukie, which is an E.T. ripoff set partially in Africa that Double Toasted ๐ did a roast of awhile back, Blue Monkey, the giant killer bug movie that Brandon reviewed during his first Canuxsploitation-A-Thon ๐จ๐ฆ, and Lifeforce, the space vampire movie directed by Tobe Hooper (the Texas Chainsaw Massacre guy ♂︎) Brandon reviewed for his 100th episode (which was a two-parter). What else is there to say? It’ll be fun, even if it’s not a good movie obviously.
Next up is the 2001 TV version of The Lost World starring Bob Hoskins as Professor George Challenge. I had no idea this movie even existed until December of last year, when I randomly stumbled upon a promo for it back in the day. But, despite it being a TV movie and the CGI obviously not being as good as a movie (especially The Lost World: Jurassic Park), it still looks like a pretty good movie. It looks like a pretty decent adaptation of the Arthur Conen Doyle Lost World novel ๐. And it’s from the same people who made Walking with Dinosaurs, so that’s a bonus. That’s another reason to check this one out. It would be a good way for CoMiC to fill his dinosaur quota if he decides not to do Journey to the Center of the Earth ๐ (2008), if that movie’s too kiddie for him. Another dinosaur movie he could is Raptor Island, which I’ve personally never seen but, judging by the cover and what little I read on Wikipedia, it looks like it’s about a group of soldiers or mercenaries who go to an island ๐️ in the South China Sea that turns out to be inhabited by dinosaurs, particularly Velociraptors, which were the most popular dinosaur at the time besides T. rexes. The Jurassic Park movies made Velociraptors a popular dinosaur, and every dinosaur movie made after Jurassic Park had to have them. It looks like a fun movie, I’m sure CoMiC could make something out of it. And then there’s 100 Million BC, which is a time travel dinosaur movie ⏱️ from The Asylum that’s similar in vein to A Sound of Thunder ⚡️, which CoMiC has reviewed on his channel, only this one stars Michael Gross, who of course played Burt Gummer in all of the Tremors movies, and the Tremors TV show that aired on the Sci-Fi Channel back when it was called Sci Fi with no hyphen. And I know CoMiC likes those, especially the first three ๐.
You remember that I mentioned that I had a few more movies on here that feature famous actors, and I mentioned Snakehead Terror wasn’t the only movie on here with the word “Terror” in its title, well here’s another one: Chupacabra: Dark Seas AKA Chupacabra Terror. Yes, we’re back to the cryptid movies, but only for a brief moment. Besides its wild premise of a Chupacabra that’s smuggled on board a cruise ship ๐ณ️ and then it gets loose and starts killing people, the other notable thing about this movie is the cast, or really two cast members: John Rhys-Davies and Giancarlo Esposito. Now, CoMiC has reviewed a few of creature features with John Rhys-Davies in them, Anaconda 3: Offspring, Anacondas: Trail of Blood ๐ฉธ, and Sabretooth (2002). It’s the point where he’s pretty much becoming a regular on the channel. And of course John Rhys-Davies is best known for playing Gimli in the Lord of the Rings movies by Peter Jackson. Even CoMiC refers to him as Gimli in his reviews.
But, Giancarlo Esposito is probably the most shocking person to be in one of these movies. He of course is best known for playing Gus Fring in the hit crime thriller drama TV show, Breaking Bad. That role made him a huge star, and he pretty much just got cast as villains in movies ever since because of it. Like seriously, when was the last time you saw Giancarlo Esposito play a hero in a movie? And he’s essentially playing the villain here as well since he’s the one who captured the Chupacabra and brought it on board the ship ๐ณ️ to drop it in the ocean I guess. But how crazy is that years before ever being in Breaking Bad, being one of the main villains in Breaking Bad, Giancarlo Esposito was in this movie, he co-starred in a creature feature with John Rhys-Davies, a creature feature about a Chupacabra on a cruise ship ๐ณ️ no less?
This movie could almost accurately be described as Gimli teaming up with Gus Fring to take down a Chupacabra on a cruise ship ๐ณ️. Another thing about this movie is the design of the Chupacabra itself. This movie goes for the classic look for the Chupacabra, the Puerto Rican interpretation ๐ต๐ท, which looks more alien ๐ฝ and unlike any animal that exists today, rather than the Texas interpretation that just looks like a mangy dog ๐ with kangaroo legs ๐ฆ. There actually is a Chupacabra movie with that interpretation, it’s a newer one called Chupacabra vs. The Alamo, which premiered on the Sci-Fi Channel, after it changed its name to SYFY. I would also like CoMiC to do that movie too, but not before doing Chupacabra: Dark Seas, the one with the much cooler looking Chupacabra, which is fully practical. The Chupacabra in this movie is portrayed mostly by a guy in a suit, while the one in Chupacabra vs. The Alamo is fully CG. I’ll let you decide which one is better.
Next up is Octopus ๐ (2000) and Octopus 2: River of Fear ๐. Now, Brandon has actually reviewed the first Octopus ๐ movie, but hasn’t done the second one…yet, and I would like CoMiC to review both of them. When Brandon reviewed it, he didn’t really like it. His biggest complaint was that the movie focused too much on the spy thriller stuff and not enough on the octopus ๐, even though of course, Octopus ๐ is literally in the title. It’s literally what the movie is called. And for the most I do agree. I remember not really being into this one as a kid. I got much more of a kick out of the second one, River of Fear, and I feel like Brandon and CoMiC would too if either of them were to review it. It delivers more of what you want from a giant killer octopus movie ๐, even if it does end up kind of being a Jaws ripoff but with a giant octopus. Which is what the movie, Tentacles ๐ (1977) was, but who says you can’t do multiple Jaws ripoffs with octopuses ๐? The first one on the other hand is like the movies, Crimson Tide or The Hunt for the Red October, but if you threw a giant octopus ๐ into them. And maybe throw in a bit of Speed 2: Cruise Control ๐ณ️ in there as well because there’s this whole subplot about the main terrorist in the movie’s buddies hijacking a cruise ship ๐ณ️, and I guess holding the entire crew and passengers hostage and threatening to blow up ๐ฅ the ship ๐ณ️ if the US military ๐บ๐ธ and the CIA don’t release the main terrorist guy ♂︎.
Again, the movie is mostly focused on the spy thriller aspect, and the octopus ๐ is kind of an afterthought. We don’t get much of an explanation of what octopus ๐ is and where it came from, other than it was mutated by anthrax that the Soviets ☭ accidentally dumped into the ocean, during the Cuban Missile Crisis ๐จ๐บ. It also has the actor who played Frost in Aliens, Ricco Ross, who was also in Proteus (1995). This actor was in a lot of low budget creature features in the 1990s and 2000s wasn’t he? I guess being in Aliens didn’t pay. Though he does give a much more over-the-top performance in Octopus ๐ (2000) than he did in Proteus (1995), but it’s kind of that clichรฉ where the black guy ♂︎ freaks out and has a mental breakdown when things get bad. At least they didn’t make him cowardly. At one point, he’s willing to fight the octopus ๐ in hand-to-hand combat, which doesn’t happen unfortunately ☹️. It is kind of ironic that I mention Crimson Tide though because this movie uses footage from that movie, for the submarine scenes since a good chunk of this movie takes place on a submarine, and there’s actually a scene in Crimson Tide where a character jokes about the submarine being attacked by a giant octopus ๐. So, they unknowingly predicted that footage from the movie would be used in an actual giant octopus movie ๐ just 5 years later.
Another killer cephalopod movie that I would like to mention is Kraken: Tentacles of the Deep ๐ฆ, which is more about a giant squid ๐ฆ than a giant octopus ๐, but it’s still a fun movie. The things I remember about it are this scene where the main characters order calamari at a restaurant (because you know, it’s a movie about a giant squid ๐ฆ ๐) and the scene at the end where they kill the squid ๐ฆ while it’s lying on top of their boat. There’s also Eye of the Beast ๐ฆ, which is apart of the Maneater series. I think it’s the first film in the Maneater series if I’m not mistaken, even though you really don’t have to watch any of those movies in order since none of them connect to each other on a narrative level as I mentioned before. It is also about a giant squid ๐ฆ, even though for some reason, they used an octopus ๐ on the cover.
There is one movie I would like to mention, but I didn’t know where else to put it, so I’ll put it here. Since CoMiC has done a killer robot movie, Virus (1999), I would like to suggest, the movie, Shockwave (2006) AKA A.I. Assault. It’s a killer robot movie, and I have seen it, but I don’t remember much from it. I just remember the design of the robots, which look like the Tripods from War of the Worlds (any version of War of the Worlds that has Tripods), only they have more than three legs. I don’t remember the exact number of legs they had, but it was definitely more than three. They’re also manmade, and not made by aliens ๐ฝ. I also remember this one part where one of the robots chops a guy ♂︎’s head off with one of its pincers, because the robots have pincers. I think the reason why I rented this movie is that it was called Shockwave, and Shockwave is the name of a character from Transformers (one of the Decepticons), and I was really into Transformers back then because of the Michael Bay movies. And like I said, the robots remind me a lot of the Tripods from War of the Worlds, particularly the 2005 Steven Spielberg one and the 2005 Asylum one. That was kind of how I chose movies back then. Oh, and it’s from Jim Wyornski. He even co-wrote it, so I’m sure this one will be a doozy.
I’ve got some killer bug movies that I want CoMiC to do, starting with Swarmed (2005), which is the Canadian movie ๐จ๐ฆ I was referring to earlier. But, like with a lot of Canadian movies ๐จ๐ฆ, it’s not actually set in Canada ๐จ๐ฆ, it’s supposed to take place in the US ๐บ๐ธ. But if you’re actually from the US ๐บ๐ธ, you can tell it’s not the US ๐บ๐ธ. I’ve never seen Swarmed (2005) before, but I have seen the trailer, and I saw Carnage Counts’s video on it, and it looks a pretty fun movie, a pretty fun killer wasp movie. I mean, it has a part where this exterminator guy ♂︎ (who’s one of the main characters) torches a bunch of wasps with a flamethrower ๐ฅ, how cool is that? The wasps aren’t giant sized, they’re just regular sized wasps, but they became more aggressive and started attacking people after they exposed to an experimental pesticide. I think the pesticide was specifically tested on them, but it had the inverse effect on them of not killing them, but rather, making them more aggressive and more willing to attack humans. I think CoMiC could make a pretty good video out of this one. The next one up is another killer wasp movie called Dragon Wasps. This one actually is about giant wasps, and the reason why it’s called Dragon Wasps is that these wasps breathe fire ๐ฅ, so that’s cool. Speaking of dragons though, the movie, Reign of Fire ๐ฅ would be a pretty awesome movie for CoMiC to do on his channel. That’s not a killer bug movie, it’s a dragon movie, but it’s still pretty cool. It’s the only dragon apocalypse movie that’s ever been made.
There’s They Nest AKA Creepy Crawlers, which is a movie about killer cockroaches ๐ชณ. They aren’t giant cockroaches ๐ชณ, they’re regular sized cockroaches ๐ชณ that were genetically modified ๐งฌ to feed on human flesh. I think, it’s very similar to another movie from the late 1980s called The Nest (1988), and in that movie, the cockroaches ๐ชณ were genetically engineered ๐งฌ, and that’s why they eat people. Although the scientist lady ๐ฉ๐ฌ who created them fed them dogs ๐ and cats ๐ before they actually started eating people. But don’t worry, she gets her comeuppance at the end of the movie when she gets killed by the giant human sized cockroach queen ๐ชณ, which has taken on a human form. Like, it’s covered in human flesh and skulls ๐. That’s another thing about the cockroaches ๐ชณ in The Nest (1988), they take over people’s bodies, and then can transform into these body horror monstrosities. They even do it to a cat ๐⬛ at one point. I don’t think the cockroaches ๐ชณ in They Nest do anything like that. Just to be safe, CoMiC can do both movies since they are so similar.
Since I mentioned skulls ๐, the next movie I would like to mention, and that I really want CoMiC to do is The Bone Snatcher ๐ฆด, which is a killer ant movie ๐. There already is a killer ant movie ๐ in the Maneater series called The Hive ๐ (2008), even though ants ๐ have colonies not hives, but The Bone Snatcher ๐ฆด is different enough to where I could actually recommend it because the ants ๐ in this movie eat the flesh off of people’s bones ๐ฆด, and then they join together to form the vague shape of a human, using the skeletons of their victims to maintain that shape. That’s why the movie’s called The Bone Snatcher ๐ฆด. They even use skulls ๐ to act as faces for when they do form the shape of human, and use that walk around with. It’s a cool concept, and a unique take on killer ants ๐, and it’s kind of creepy too to have this swarm of ants ๐ that join together to form the vague shape of a human and walk around like a human, with a human skull ๐ as a face or a mask. It’s a very creepy image. And it’s set in the desert in Namibia ๐ณ๐ฆ, so that’s cool. There’s the two giant killer mosquito movies ๐ฆ, Skeeter ๐ฆ and Mosquito ๐ฆ (1995).
There’s also a killer centipede movie I would like to mention since CoMiC reviewed a killer centipede movie already, Centipede! (2004) AKA The Tentacles (don’t know why it’s called that, why that’s the alternate title, but whatever), Omukade, which is a Thai monster movie ๐น๐ญ set during World War II, about these soldiers or rebels who go inside of a cave and face off against these parasitic centipede-like creatures that take over people’s bodies and turn them into body horror abominations. While also facing off against Japanese soldiers ๐ฏ๐ต since this is Thailand ๐น๐ญ during World War II. It’s kind of like the Plaga from Resident Evil, someone in the comment section on the trailer mentioned that, specifically the ones from Resident Evil 5 that look more centipede-ish, Cephalo. But, I’ll recommend this one if CoMiC is willing to do movies that are not in the English language. But, maybe there’s a dub for Omukade, and if so, then it’s fair game. This isn’t only creature feature that doubles as a war movie that I want to mention here.
There’s this Australian shark movie ๐ฆ๐บ๐ฆ set during World War II called Beast of War that came out in 2025, and there’s this other Australian movie ๐ฆ๐บ that came out the exact same year called Primitive War, which is a dinosaur movie set during the Vietnam War ๐ป๐ณ, and is actually based on a book ๐ written by an American author ๐บ๐ธ, which also got adapted into a graphic novel. A graphic novel that was crowdfunded, either on Kickstarter or IndieGoGo. I think it was Kickstarter. And the characters are all supposed to be Americans ๐บ๐ธ, even though they’re all played by Australians ๐ฆ๐บ. The only actual American actor ๐บ๐ธ in the whole movie is Jeremy Pivan, so not exactly working with the best here, and there’s a Canadian actress ๐จ๐ฆ in the movie named Tricia Helfer. It was kind of a missed opportunity on the part of the filmmakers to educate the public about the fact that Australia ๐ฆ๐บ did participate in the Vietnam War ๐ป๐ณ (it was one of the main combatants on the anti-communist side), by making all the soldiers Australian soldiers ๐ฆ๐บ rather than American ones ๐บ๐ธ, even if that wouldn’t have been accurate to the book ๐. At least the Australian actors ๐ฆ๐บ wouldn’t had to put on any phony American accents ๐บ๐ธ and could use their real accents when playing these parts. I would like for CoMiC to review both of those.
Next is Camel Spiders, which is a movie about giant Solifuges killing people, more commonly known as camel spiders, or sun spiders ☀️, or wind scorpions, even though they aren’t actually spiders ๐ท️ or scorpions ๐ฆ at all. They’re their own distinct order of arachnids. It’s directed by Jim Wyornski, and CoMiC has reviewed a couple of his movies, Curse of the Komodo and Komodo vs. Cobra ๐, and this movie looks be in the same vein as those movies only it has giant camel spiders instead of giant Komodo dragons or a giant King cobra ๐. Another sort of spider movie ๐ท️ is Arachnia, which is a TV movie that originally aired on the USA Network ๐บ๐ธ in 2003. I say “sort of” because I don’t know if the creatures in the movie are true spiders ๐ท️ or not. But, the movie’s called Arachnia, so I guess they’re spiders ๐ท️, or spider-like creatures ๐ท️. The filmmakers certainly wanted you to think they were spiders ๐ท️ by calling it that. But the fun thing about that movie is the creatures are portrayed with stop motion rather than CGI like most low budget creature features around that same time. So, that immediately sets it apart, and makes it more interesting to talk about. I’m sure it’ll be fun for CoMiC if he ever takes up my request and reviews it.
That provides an excellent transition to talking about actual spider movies ๐ท️, starting with Ice Spiders ❄️๐ท️, which is about giant mutated spiders ๐ท️ attacking people at a ski resort ⛷️๐ on a snowy mountain ๐️, hence why it’s called Ice Spiders ❄️๐ท️. Next one up is Sting ๐ท️ (2024), which despite the title, is about a spider ๐ท️ named Sting. The movie’s not suggesting that spiders ๐ท️ sting, they bite, it’s just the girl ♀︎ in the movie named the spider ๐ท️ Sting because she was keeping it as a pet before it started growing to gigantic size. It’s got some really gory deaths, especially for the neighbor lady ♀︎, which some people felt was undeserved because she was actually pretty nice, and yet they gave her the most gruesome death in the whole movie. But still, it looks pretty cool and that’s more than enough to suggest CoMiC watch it and review it. And finally, since CoMiC most recently reviewed Big Ass Spider ๐ท️, maybe he could review Spiders 3D ๐ท️, which is very similar to Big Ass Spider ๐ท️ in a lot of ways. It even came out the same year, 2013. Only it’s more of a wacky European movie. It’s probably supposed to take place in America ๐บ๐ธ, but you can take one look at that city, and instantly tell that it’s not an American city ๐บ๐ธ. And it’s in 3D, or it was in 3D at one point but the home release is just in 2D, I don’t know how they managed that. They didn’t have the budget to actually film this in 3D with actual 3D cameras, so it was more than likely a post conversion. Just like the majority of 3D movies were in the late 2000s and early 2010s.
I’ve got a couple killer scorpion movies ๐ฆ, Mega Scorpions ๐ฆ and Scorpius Gigantus ๐ฆ. The interesting thing about Scorpius Gigantus ๐ฆ is that it’s apparently a remake of Carnosaur 3: Primal Species. It’s produced by Roger Corman. Only they replaced the dinosaurs with these giant scorpion-looking things ๐ฆ. The weird thing about this movie is that the plot description on Wikipedia is incredibly inaccurate. It still describes there being dinosaurs in the movie, even there aren’t dinosaurs in the movie, it just has these scorpion-looking things ๐ฆ. Whoever wrote that description clearly didn’t watch the right movie. They were probably watching Carnosaur 3, and thought they were watching Scorpius Gigantus ๐ฆ instead. So, I don’t know how accurate the claim is that this movie’s a remake of Carnosaur 3. I guess it could be since it primarily takes place inside of a warehouse, and it involves a bunch of soldiers or mercenaries going up against the creatures. But it looks pretty bad. It looks very amateurish, even compared to the Carnosaur movies, and the CGI? Forget about it, it looks terrible. Even Pythons 2 looked more professional than this movie did. I haven’t seen it, I’ve just seen Carnage Counts’s video on it. I think CoMiC’s going to suffer if he chooses to review this one. But, Mega Scorpions ๐ฆ does look a lot better. It actually features giant scorpions ๐ฆ rather than giant scorpion-like creatures ๐ฆ like Scorpius Gigantus ๐ฆ does.
We’re going to going back to the killer fish movies ๐ for a moment, starting with Deep Shock ⚡️, which is about giant killer electric eels ⚡️. I’ve never seen the movie, at least as far as I remember, but I have seen clips from it, mainly Carnage Counts’s video on it, and it looks pretty cool. I like the idea of giant killer electric eels ⚡️, you don’t see that very often, and the designs are pretty cool. And the design of the eels on the DVD cover ๐ reminds me a lot of the creature on the DVD cover ๐ of The Cave (2005), which CoMiC has reviewed. Sure, the eel on the DVD cover ๐ looks nothing like the ones in the actual movie, but it still looks cool. I think CoMiC would have a lot of fun with this one. Next is Razortooth (2007), which is about a giant killer sea serpent of some kind that may or may be a fish, that may or may not be a type of eel. But it’s an interesting design, and I’m sure CoMiC could do something with it. That movie actually has a similar title to another movie, from 2005, called Razorteeth, which is about killer piranhas. I don’t know if CoMiC would actually want to review that one because it looks pretty bad. Like, really bad.
It’s kind of like Swarm of the Snakehead, where it’s very amateurish, but it’s probably the most amateurish movie I’ve mentioned in this entire post. And it’s pretty boring from what I’ve heard, like it’s one of those bad movies, those low quality Z grade movies where hardly anything happens in them, and they’re mostly just dicking around to stall for time to get the movie to feature length. Brandon has a lot of experience with those, but not so much CoMiC. The movies CoMiC usually reviews, even if they’re low budget, even if they’re bad, they’re usually more well put together, like there was some professionalism involved whether it’s on the filmmakers’ side or the actors’ side. It’s very rare that CoMiC will review a movie that feels as if the people who made it, whether it’s the filmmakers or the actors, had no idea what they were doing, and the movie is just poorly put together as a result. I’m not sure if I want to put CoMiC through that, so I’ll leave it up to him whether he wants to review this particular movie or not.
But, since I mentioned a piranha movie (as in, a movie about killer piranhas), another movie I would like CoMiC to review is Piranha (1995). Yes, before Piranha 3D, there was another remake of Piranha (1978) in the mid-1990s, that was made for TV. I’m not sure if it was made with Roger Corman’s involvement or not, if he was still the producer. But it was made for Showtime, that’s where it aired. I think the best way to look at it is the difference between King Kong (1976) and King Kong (2005). What King Kong (1976) is to King Kong (2005), Piranha (1995) is to Piranha 3D. The reason why I want CoMiC to cover it, besides the fact that it’s a Piranha movie, is the fact that I don’t see anyone talk about this movie. It’s never brought up, even in discussions about the Piranha franchise. Everyone just talks about Piranha 3D and its sequel, Piranha 3DD, and just calls it a day. Little do they know there was another remake of Piranha (1978) in the mid-90s. It’s funny how I wrote “mid-90s” like that since there’s a movie called Mid90s that was written and directed by Jonah Hill (yes, that Jonah Hill), which I’ve heard mixed things about. Most of critics seemed to like it, but this one YouTuber who I used to watch but don’t anymore, and forgot the name of didn’t really like it. In fact he hated it.
So, I don’t know if Mid90s is even a good movie or not. I don’t know if it’s mid or not in other words ๐. The title is written as one word, Mid90s, but still, it’s called Mid90s. CoMiC could be the first one to do it, he could be the first one to do review of Piranha (1995). When no one else did it, he did it. He could make that claim. And I’ll do it too because I also plan on reviewing Piranha (1995) on my blog when I start diving into the Piranha franchise. I already have the original Piranha, Piranha (1978) on Blu-Ray ๐ฟ and 4K ๐ฟ, I just need the other ones. The other notable thing about Piranha (1995), beyond the fact that it even exists, is it was Mila Kunis’s earlier role. It was her first role in a feature film, and given that this was 1995, and Mila Kunis was born in 1983, she was still pretty young. She was pretty much a child actor back then. It’s also fascinating to see what certain actors’ earliest role what was their first role. Leonardo DiCaprio was in one of the Critters movies, and look at where he is now. He’s an Academy Award winning actor, after he finally got his Best Actor Oscar for his role in The Revenant (2015). The Critters movies would actually be a pretty good pick for CoMiC’s channel, he should do them too.
I’m going to list off a few more shark movies ๐ฆ, since you know, sharks ๐ฆ are fish ๐. They’re a type of fish ๐. They just don’t have bones ๐ฆด, they have cartilage. I actually thought of a title for a potential Jaws legacy sequel if they ever made one, Jaws: Blood and Cartilage ๐ฉธ, as a title for a Piranha reboot/legacy sequel, Piranhas or Piranha: Blood and Teeth ๐ฉธ (I think, I don’t remember exactly what the other title I came up with was besides Piranhas, and I can’t go back see because I deleted the note I made with all these titles I came up in the Drafts app after I deleted the Drafts app from my laptop ๐ป and my phone ๐ฑ; maybe it was Piranha: Tooth and Bone ๐ฆด since piranhas are bony fish and Jaws: Blood and Cartilage ๐ฉธ because sharks ๐ฆ are cartilaginous fish), all in lead up to be crossover between Jaws and Piranha called Piranha vs. Jaws. There’s Blue Demon, Dark Waters ๐ฆ, Shark Hunter ๐ฆ (2001), Shark Zone ๐ฆ, Raging Sharks ๐ฆ, and Shark in Venice ๐ฆ๐ฎ๐น AKA Sharks in Venice ๐ฆ๐ฎ๐น. Raging Sharks ๐ฆ and Shark in Venice ๐ฆ๐ฎ๐น are similar in that they both depict sharks ๐ฆ roaring like lions ๐ฆ or tigers ๐
, even though as most people know, sharks ๐ฆ do not roar. They don’t make any sound whatsoever. They don’t have any vocal cords, they don’t need them because they’re fish ๐ and live entirely in water ๐ฆ. They have gills, they don’t need to come up for air like marine mammals do.
It’s one of the reasons why Jaws: The Revenge was so often mocked. Still mocked to this day. I haven’t seen Shark in Venice ๐ฆ๐ฎ๐น, but I have seen Raging Sharks ๐ฆ and I really didn’t like it. It was so weird, it ends with the main characters sacrificing themselves by rigging the underwater facility they worked at to blow, while these aliens ๐ฝ come down to retrieve this capsule that fell off their ship and crashed down to Earth ๐ and landed in the ocean, and has these orange crystals inside that are making the sharks ๐ฆ go crazy and attack people. They explode ๐ฅ, the main characters die, the aliens ๐ฝ presumably die, all while opera music is playing in the background. It’s one of the strangest climaxes to any film I’ve ever seen, let alone a shark movie ๐ฆ, and it just threw the whole movie off for me. And the whole sharks ๐ฆ roaring thing also kind of weirded me out. I didn’t even get any enjoyment out of the shark scenes ๐ฆ. Like how do you mess those up? Even if everything else is shit, at least the shark stuff ๐ฆ could be good, but not here. But I’m sure CoMiC could still find a way to make an entertaining video out of this.
Shark Hunter ๐ฆ (2001) is another shark movie ๐ฆ about a Megalodon ๐ฆ. I have seen it, I rented back in the day when video stores still existed, and I really don’t remember much about it, other than it was really dark in tone. It really took itself seriously, it was kind of downer. Because I guess it was about this guy ♂︎ who lost his family to the Megalodon ๐ฆ, and he was going after it for revenge. It was kind of a Moby Dick situation, with this guy ♂︎ relentlessly hunting a sea creature, even if it costs him his life because for him, it’s personal. Only here, it’s a Megalodon ๐ฆ instead of a white whale, or a Sperm whale since that’s often speculated to be the kind of whale that’s depicted in Moby Dick. It was certainly the kind of whale in that Chris Hemsworth movie that purported to be about the true story inspired by Moby Dick, the real story behind Moby Dick, In the Heart of the Sea. Shark Zone ๐ฆ is actually pretty fun. For the longest time, I thought it was one of the Shark Attack ๐ฆ movies, either Shark Attack ๐ฆ (1999) or Shark Attack 2 ๐ฆ, but it’s not, it’s actually own separate movie. I just remember the scene at the end where the characters are killing the sharks ๐ฆ by dropping bombs into the water ๐ฆ from a helicopter ๐ . The actual footage of the sharks ๐ฆ exploding ๐ฅ was reused in a whole bunch of movies, including Raging Sharks ๐ฆ.
I know for sure it was reused in Shark Attack 3 ๐ฆ when the main character kills the Megalodon ๐ฆ by blowing it up ๐ฅ with his submarine. I think he blew it up ๐ฅ with the torpedoes he launched from his minisub while the shark ๐ฆ was biting down on it and had it in its mouth, or he set it to self-destruct. Either the shark ๐ฆ dies, and when it does, it’s that same shot from Shark Zone ๐ฆ of pieces of the shark ๐ฆ flying at the camera, including a piece of its jaw. Blue Demon is also pretty fun. It has Jeff Fahey as the main villain, as this evil general named General Remora who lets the sharks ๐ฆ free to go on a rampage to get the project shut down (the Blue Demon project) and that one dwarf actor (or little person actor, I don’t know what the proper term would be for that) who was in Watchmen (2009), he was that little guy that Rorschach kills in the bathroom ๐ฝ just before he escapes from the prison with Night Owl II and Silk Spectre II, and was the angel in that episode of iCarly that was like a parody of A Christmas Carol ๐, or or was like A Christmas Carol ๐, or perhaps more fittingly, It’s a Wonderful Life. He claimed he was helping Carly so he can get his wings, and we’re led to believe throughout the episode that he’s talking angel wings ๐ชฝ, when he was actually talking about chicken wings…for him to eat.
It’s got some funny lines that are supposed to funny I think like “Who let the guppies out?” “I don’t care who let them out, I want them back here now!” and last but not least, “Can you say ‘sushi?’” Which Danny Woodburn’s character, Lawrence Van Allen says before he doing a barrel roll out of the room and closing the door behind him so that General Remora will get killed by the shark ๐ฆ, which has a bomb in its mouth that has a timer and is about to explode ๐ฅ. Instead of running out of the room, General Remora just stares at the shark ๐ฆ as it’s approaching the room with the bomb in its mouth, he gives one final salute ๐ซก with his serious look on his face, and then the shark ๐ฆ crashes into the room and explodes ๐ฅ, dying instantly and killing General Remora in the process. There’s even this funny scene transition where these college girls ♀︎ trying to break into this lagoon that’s fenced off and clearly not meant for the public, so they can do some kind of sorority initiation, or sorority dare or something like that, and they’re attacked by the one of the sharks ๐ฆ.
And just as they’re about to get eaten, the movie cuts to a guy ♂︎ eating a sandwich ๐ฅช and that’s the transition to the next scene. It’s kind of that scene transition in Kong: Skull Island, only this movie did it first. About 13 years before Kong: Skull Island. The only problem is that it’s PG-13, so don’t expect any gore. In fact, this movie is kind of lacking in shark kills ๐ฆ, the sharks ๐ฆ hardly kill anyone in this movie, and that’s largely due to the PG-13 rating. This actually isn’t the only shark movie ๐ฆ I’ve mentioned in this post that’s rated PG-13. Megalodon ๐ฆ (2002) is also rated PG-13, so there’s pretty much no gore in that movie either, except that one scene I mentioned earlier where they’re examining that prehistoric fish ๐ (that may or may not be a cod), and it bites one of the main characters’s hands ✋. I mean, it’s kind of hard to do a gory Megalodon ๐ฆ movie since Megalodons ๐ฆ are so big, they’ll just swallow you whole. They don’t need to bite or tear to pieces like a smaller shark ๐ฆ would.
Dark Waters ๐ฆ is a movie that I rewatched recently. I rewatched around the time I was working on my 99th post, which was a review of Deep Blue Sea, one of the best shark movies ๐ฆ ever made in my opinion, and I kind of hated it. I really didn’t like Dark Waters ๐ฆ, it was kind of a let down for me. It really didn’t hold up after all these years. I think it’s the characters that I mainly didn’t like about it. They’re all pretty unlikable, and kind of criminals. Like the main characters are legit bad people who should be locked up in prison. Especially the main female character ♀︎, Robin Turner, who literally has sex with a minor and openly admits it in front of everyone. And nothing comes of it, she faces no repercussions for any of that. I kind of pissed me off while watching it. I don’t know why they decided to write the characters in that way. If they wanted us to like the characters, they sure started off on the wrong foot. The plot is kind of silly, like the reason why the characters end up in the predicament they’re in is kind of stupid. They’re basically down there to try to prove Atlantis exists, something that they’re unsuccessful at doing. I kind of misremembered this movie for the longest time because I was under the impression that it took place on an oil rig, but when I rewatched it, it turns out that it actually takes place on submarine, a nuclear submarine ☢️ belonging to the US Navy ๐บ๐ธ. And the main villain in this movie is a Navy admiral I guess. He’s the one who commissioned the creation of these genetically modified sharks ๐ฆ๐งฌ, which the Navy wants to use for military purposes. As is usually the case in these kind of movies. The sharks ๐ฆ in Blue Demon were also meant to be used for the military purposes.
That’s why the scientists ๐จ๐ฌ๐ฉ๐ฌ were holding that presentation for all the military guys ♂︎, they were going to show off the sharks ๐ฆ and what they can do, so that they can pitch them to the military guys ♂︎ and see if they wanted to buy them and use them for military purposes. But General Remora was against the project, he didn’t want the military to use the sharks ๐ฆ. So he intentionally sabotaged the presentation and let the sharks ๐ฆ loose so that they would go on a rampage and kill people. So that the military would look at that, and see how dangerous they are and reject the scientists’ ๐จ๐ฌ๐ฉ๐ฌ offer and cancel the project. I don’t know they managed to fit an entire shark tank ๐ฆ inside of a submarine, even a nuclear submarine ☢️ because that’s where they’re keeping the sharks ๐ฆ. The only thing I actually remembered for sure about that movie, besides the sharks ๐ฆ swimming in this tank that looks like the inside of a swimming pool ๐ is this one moment where they reference Terminator 2: Judgment Day, because one of them is using a gun that vaguely looks like one of the guns from that movie. I think it was the SPAS-12 shotgun, the shotgun that Sarah Connor uses at the end of the movie. You know, the one with shells on top of the gun? That shotgun was also used in Jurassic Park, it’s the one that Robert Muldoon uses that has that collapsible stock. It’s pretty iconic shotgun, and a pretty kick ass one, which is why it was used in so many movies after Terminator 2, including Dark Waters ๐ฆ. Even though the shotgun they use in that movie that made them reference Terminator 2 isn’t actually SPAS-12. It just looks vaguely similar.
Since I mentioned The Cave (2005) earlier, I’m going to recommend/request a couple more cave movies. First is The Cavern (2005), which came out the same year as both The Descent and The Cave (2005). Yes, there was a third cave movie that came out in 2005. 2005 was the year of the cave movies, just like 1998 was the year of the space western anime ๐ค , Cowboy Bebop, Outlaw Star, and Trigun. All three of those space westerns ๐ค , and each one is pretty different from one another, although Cowboy Bebop (1998) and Trigun are a lot more similar to each other than Outlaw Star is to either of them. You’ll see what I mean when I get around to reviewing Outlaw Star, after I do my Cowboy Bebop (1998) review. And each one finding a different way to say the word “cave,” or “going down into a cave” in the case of The Descent. They also all have the word “the” in the title, The Descent, The Cave (2005), and The Cavern (2005). I wonder why that happened, why they all had the word “the” in title followed by a single word. I guess to make it official ๐คท♂️. The notable thing about The Cavern (2005), besides the fact that it went straight-to-DVD ๐ rather than being released theatrically like either The Descent or The Cave (2005), is that it was directed by Olatunde Osunsanmi, the same director as The Fourth Kind, that alien abduction movie ๐ฝ starring Milla Jovovich that tried to make it seem like it was based on true events, even going as far as to feature “archival footage” and have the actors and the director come out and do wrap around segments where they essentially say the majority of the movie is a dramatic reenactment of what really happened in Nome, Alaska to this psychiatrist ๐ฉ⚕️ named Dr. Abagail Tyler. Did she really see aliens ๐ฝ or was she just hallucinating? Is she crazy? Did she kidnap her own daughter, or was her daughter abducted by aliens ๐ฝ? Or even, was her husband really murdered or did he just commit suicide?
When in reality of course, it’s completely fictional, there’s nothing real about that movie whatsoever, none of those events actually happened, and those people don’t actually exist. The “real” Abigail Tyler in the “archival footage” was just another actor playing a role, she’s no different from Milla Jovovich, except she’s way less famous. If you want to really able to tell that this movie’s bullshit, they didn’t get Nome, Alaska right. Nome looks nothing like how it does in the movie in real life. The movie depicts Nome, Alaska was this picturesque town with a kinds of mountains ⛰️ and trees ๐ฒ, just an absolutely beautiful location, when Nome in reality is just a barren icy wasteland ❄️๐ฅถ. There’s nothing there. It’s as cold and desolate ๐ฅถ as you can get, it’s the closest you can get to feeling isolated and away from civilization. It’s like that town in 30 Days of Night, which is also set in Alaska, that’s how Nome looks in real life.
It’s funny how 30 Days of Night, a movie that doesn’t at all try to pretend that it’s not fictional, is more accurate to Alaska (or at least, parts of Alaska) than The Fourth Kind, which tries so hard to convince you that it’s real and that’s based on real events that actually happened, when that it isn’t and they didn’t, it’s completely fictional. 30 Days of Night would actually be a pretty cool movie for CoMiC to do on his channel now that I mention it, I mean vampires ๐ง♂️๐ง♀️ count as a creatures don’t they? I might even consider reviewing it myself just so I can watch it because I’ve never seen it. My sisters have, but I haven’t. I’ve just seen reviews of it on YouTube, particularly the one by GoodBadFlicks, which went into detail as always because GoodBadFlicks is very thorough like that. But, it would be pretty interesting to see a cave movie from this director. I haven’t seen it, and I really don’t know what it’s about beyond the fact that it has to do with a cave. It wouldn’t be a cave movie if it wasn’t. I don’t even know if it actually is a creature feature or not. I hope it is, otherwise it won’t qualify for this list.
If not, I’ve got a couple of other cave movies, starting with The Devil Below, which stars Will Patton, who played Chick in Armageddon ☄️ and was also the skeptical sheriff in The Fourth Kind. He’s usually a supporting player, but this is a rare leading role for him. Also, when I hear that title, The Devil Below, I just think of that monologue that Remmick gives to Sammie in Sinners (2025) while they’re in that lake next to the Juke Joint, because there’s a part where he says “A god above and a devil below.” Even though of course, the creatures in The Devil Below are not the Devil or demons, but rather some kind of subterranean monster that builds nests, has a colony and has a queen like ants ๐ or termites. But they’re not killer bugs, they’re some kind of made up creature. Speaking of made up creatures, we have The Deep Dark, which is a French movie ๐ซ๐ท I believe.
I’ve heard mixed things about this movie, like some people don’t like it and think it’s a bad movie, but the creature in it is pretty cool. It has a pretty cool looking creature, and a creepy one too. Or at least, the sounds it makes are pretty creepy. It’s also portrayed by a puppet, like it had strings attached to the arms and they puppeteered it like a marionette puppet. It’s actually pretty cool. I know said “cool” a lot in this part of post, so I’ll stop. I think there’s a good chance that CoMiC might do The Deep Dark because he already reviewed a French movie ๐ซ๐ท, Under Paris, which is a shark movie ๐ฆ on Netflix that CoMiC didn’t like very much. He gave it a pretty negative review. So hopefully he likes this movie a lot more. But, since he did review Under Paris, maybe there is a chance he’ll review those other non-English language movies I recommended/requested, so long as they have English dubs. He could also do The Descent, that would pretty good too, especially since it’s often considered the best of these cave movies. He could even do the sequel, The Descent Part 2.
I’ve got some more mammalian creature features, starting with Pig Hunt ๐, which is a killer boar movie ๐. I’m only recommending this movie because CoMiC recently reviewed the movie, Boar ๐ (2017), which is an Australian killer boar movie ๐ฆ๐บ๐. So, he’s willing to do killer boar movies ๐. Pig Hunt ๐ is an American killer boar movie ๐บ๐ธ๐, and I was confused at first because I was introduced to this movie through Carnage Counts’s video on it, and it took a long time for the boar ๐ to actually show up. It looked more like a manhunt movie, like one of those Most Dangerous Game movies like Hard Target, Surviving the Game, The Hunt (2020), Ready or Not, Ready or Not 2: Here I Come, even The Pest. And then the boar ๐ showed up, and I was like, “okay,” and I became a lot more interested. I feel like CoMiC probably wouldn’t like it as much as Boar ๐ (2017), but as always, I’m sure he could still make a pretty entertaining video out of it. Next is Chaw ๐ AKA Chawz ๐, which is the American title ๐บ๐ธ. I think “Chaw” is either pig ๐ or boar ๐ in Korean ๐ฐ๐ท. This looks like a pretty fun movie, I’m sure CoMiC would get a kick out of this one if he reviewed it. If he’s willing to do non-English language movies that is, but like I said, if he was willing to do Under Paris, then I’m sure he’d be willing to do this movie too. I would mention Razorback ๐, but I feel like I don’t need to because when he reviewed Boar ๐ (2017), there were a bunch of people in the comments telling him to review Razorback ๐ next. So, if it wasn’t on his radar before, it definitely is now and I think there’s a good chance he’ll probably review Razorback ๐ someday. Simply because so many people asked him to.
Next up is the killer lion movie ๐ฆ, Prey ๐ฆ (2007), which stars Bridget Moynahan. It’s basically about this woman ♀︎ and her two stepchildren who get trapped on a game reserve in South Africa ๐ฟ๐ฆ, and have to survive both the intense South African heat ๐ฟ๐ฆ๐ฅต and a bunch of hungry lions ๐ฆ that want to kill them and eat them, with their own refuge being the Jeep that they came in. The driver who brought them there gets killed by the lions ๐ฆ pretty early on. It’s kind of like Cujo, but in South Africa ๐ฟ๐ฆ and with lions ๐ฆ instead of a rabid dog ๐ (I know this isn’t a St. Bernard, but this is one of the few dog emojis ๐ has, so we’re going with it). If CoMiC was willing to do The Ghost and the Darkness, which he loved, then I’m sure he could do Prey ๐ฆ (2007) as well. Since I mentioned Cujo, I’m going shift gears and mention a couple of killer dog movies ๐, because believe it or not, there a few killer dog movies ๐ out there. Starting with The Breed, which is about this group of people, this group of young people, who go to this island ๐️ that is inhabited by a bunch of killer dogs ๐ that developed a taste for human flesh, and they basically have to try to find a way off of this island ๐️ before they all killed by the dogs ๐. I have seen this movie, or I’ve seen parts of it, and I have seen the behind-the-scenes featurette about it.
I don’t remember much about it beyond the basic premise, and the fact that it reminds me a lot of the often mocked 1950s monster movie, The Killer Shrews, only if you replaced with the giant killer shrews with dogs ๐. Which is fitting I guess since the shrews in that movie were portrayed by dogs ๐ wearing shrew masks, shrew tails, shrew feet, and shrew hair. To think, there was probably a whole costume department just for the dogs ๐ that were playing the shrews in that movie. The other killer dog movie ๐ I would like to mention here is Rottweiler (2004), which is a Spanish movie ๐ช๐ธ and looks like one crazy ass movie because the killer dog ๐ in the movie, the Rottweiler, isn’t a real dog ๐, it’s a robot dog ๐. Yes, you read that right, a robot dog ๐. I saw people in the comments of Carnage Counts’s video on the movie that it’s like a Terminator dog ๐, and that’s the best way to describe the movie, it’s like The Terminator but if Skynet sent a Terminator that resembled a dog ๐ instead of a person. CoMiC’s gotta do this one, it’s a must.
I’ve got a few more killer bear movies ๐ป. I already mentioned Bear ๐ป (2010), but there’s a couple more recent ones as well as one older one that I’d like for him to cover. It’s crazy, 2010 is even recent anymore. That was a long time ago now, but it still feels pretty recent. It’s crazy how the 20th century feels more distant and a long time ago, like the 1980s and 1990s, but especially the 1980s, feel so long ago, and yet the 2000s and the 2010s still feel so recent. Even in the decade we’re living in now, the 2020s, it feels like hardly any time has passed at all, and yet it has. 2020 was six years ago now, 2021 was five years ago, 2022 was four years ago, 2023 was three years ago, and 2024 was two years ago. Even within the time between the decades in the 20th century feels longer than the time between the decades in the 21st century, like 1954 and 1984 feel pretty far apart, when it’s only a difference of just 30 years. 1984 was just 30 years apart from 1954. The same amount of time has passed between 1996 and 2026, and that feels a lot shorter than 1954 and 1984. Maybe it’s because the world changed so drastically in the years in the time between 1954 and 1984, while the world really hasn’t changed that much in the time between 1996 and 2026. I mean, there were changes, plenty of them don’t get me wrong, but not as many changes in the time between 1954 and 1984. The world did not look at all the same in the 1980s as it did in the 1950s. While the world for the most part looks the same in the 2020s as it did in the 1990s. There’s just not as much of a difference.
But anyway, sorry I went off on that tangent, I just had to write about it because it’s been on my mind lately. Let’s talk about those bear movies ๐ป. There’s Grizzly Night ๐ป, which came out in January of this year, and Savage Hunt ๐ป, which came out some time last year, in 2025. Prophecy (1979), which is about a mutated bear ๐ป, and is from the same director as the 1996 Island of Dr. Moreau movie with Val Kilmer and Marlon Brando, John Frankenheimer. The only reason I’m recommending/requesting this movie is the hilarious sleeping bag kill, where the mutant bear ๐ป kills a kid in a sleeping bag giving him a slap that’s powerful enough to launch him into the air, and then the sleeping bag explodes ๐ฅ when it hits a nearby rock ๐ชจ ๐คฃ. I even found a polar bear movie ๐ป❄️ called Unnatural ๐ป❄️ (2015), you don’t see too many polar bear movies ๐ป❄️ do you? Usually when someone makes a killer bear movie ๐ป, it’s usually a brown bear ๐ป like a Grizzly bear ๐ป. Never a polar bear ๐ป❄️, even though polar bear ๐ป❄️ are supposedly the largest land predator currently in the world right now, and they have one of the strongest bite forces in the animal kingdom right now. They’d be the perfect monster for a creature feature, and yet this movie, Unnatural ๐ป❄️ (2015) is so far the only one I could find. Whenever I hear that title, all I think of is that monologue that Palpatine gives to Anakin when they’re sitting in that opera house, watching whatever they were watching, and Palpatine is trying to tempt Anakin to the Dark Side, and succeeding more or less, in Star Wars: Episode III – Revenge of the Sith. There’s a moment during that monologue (the “Darth Plagueis the Wise” monologue), where Palpatine says, “The Dark Side of the Force is a pathway to many abilities some consider to be unnatural.” That’s what I think of when I see that title or hear that title, Unnatural ๐ป❄️ (2015).
There is one movie I would like to mention here. It’s not a killer bear movie ๐ป, but it is a mammalian creature feature. It’s called Shakma, it’s a movie about killer baboons. I’m only recommending/requesting it because CoMiC reviewed a killer baboon movie already, Primal Force (1999) starring Ron Perlman. So, what’s another killer baboon movie? While we are talking about movies with primates, why not have CoMiC review the movie, Primate that just came out in January this year. I don’t know if CoMiC would interested in doing that movie or the orca movie ๐ซ that came out that same month, Killer Whale ๐ซ (2026), but it would be interesting for him to talk about. See him review a movie about a chimp that gets rabies and starts killing people in a house. A mansion more like since the family that the chimp belongs to and starts attacking are clearly rich ๐ค from the size of their house, the look of it, the fact it’s in Hawai‘i and where in Hawai‘i it’s located. It’s on the edge of cliff, just like Tony Stark’s mansion was before it got blown up ๐ฅ by A.I.M. in Iron Man 3. It’s pretty much Cujo, but with a chimp instead of a dog ๐, and a swimming pool ๐♀️ instead of a car ๐. There’s also The Red (2024) AKA Rippy, which is about a zombie kangaroo ๐ฆ. Hey, CoMiC reviewed Zombeavers ๐ฆซ which was about zombie beavers ๐ฆซ, so why not review this too?
I would also like to recommend/request The Wolfman ๐บ (2010) while we’re here. CoMiC has reviewed a werewolf movie ๐บ on his channel, Dog Soldiers ๐บ, which is from the same director as The Descent, Neill Marshall (another reason to do that movie), so I feel confident in recommending/requesting this one. I actually saw The Wolfman ๐บ (2010) in theaters with my late grandpa when he was still alive obviously, when it came out, and even though it got bad reviews from pretty much every major film critic back then, I still liked it. And to this day, it still holds a special place in my heart ❤️. You can’t go wrong with Benicio del Toro, Anthony Hopkins, Hugo Weaving, and Emily Blunt, and the CGI transformations are actually pretty well done. I know a lot of people tend to dunk on werewolf transformations ๐บ that are done in CGI, usually preferring practical transformations, but I the ones here looked pretty good in my opinion. The gore is pretty good too, there’s a lot of gory kills in this movie, which is you want in a werewolf movie ๐บ. If you’re going to do a werewolf movie ๐บ, you might as well make it gory. Also, there’s this mustachioed old man ♂︎ with a top hat ๐ฉ in the movie, he’s part of the initial hunting party that tries to go after Lawrence Talbot when he becomes a werewolf ๐บ for the first time, and he just makes me laugh ๐. Everything about him just makes me laugh ๐, and his actual death scene is pretty fun. You see, Werewolf Lawrence ๐บ is chasing after him in the woods ๐ฒ, and he runs into a lake or a pond, and ends up getting stuck in it, and just as Werewolf Lawrence ๐บ is approaching him, the old guy turns his gun on himself and tries to shoot himself in the head to avoid getting killed by Werewolf Lawrence ๐บ, only to find that he’s out of bullets and he has this look on his face like “Oh shit ๐ฐ,” and then Werewolf Lawrence ๐บ just kills him anyway by decapitating him with a single swipe from his claws.
It’s kind of like that scene in Deep Rising where Kevin J. O’Connor’s character, Joey Pantucci gives Wes Studi’s character, Hanover a gun because he sees that he’s being devoured by the creature, the Octalus, and he wants to give him the chance to give himself a more merciful death. Put himself out of his misery. But then upon receiving the gun, Hanover shoots at Joey just as he’s walking away, and then when he does turn the gun on himself, and tries to shoot himself in the head, he finds that it’s out of bullets. He wasted the last bullet in the gun on trying to shoot Joey, and just ends getting fully devoured away. In both instances, it’s like the creatures had a twisted sense of humor, and waited until their victim wasted their last bullet and tried to shoot themselves to escape a more painful death, only to find that the gun is empty to actually kill them. Although Werewolf Lawrence ๐บ still gave the old guy ♂︎ a quick death by decapitating him, compared to Octalus in Deep Rising, who gave Hanover (and everyone else it ate) a slow and painful death by swallowing them whole and then slowly digesting them. It’s very rare that you get a big budget werewolf movie ๐บ. You don’t get a lot of werewolf movies ๐บ that often, especially not big budget ones, vampires ๐ง♂️๐ง♀️ are so overdone. So, when you do get one, and it’s really good, you gotta cherish it. Because you never when the next big budget werewolf movie ๐บ will come out. And I do cherish it, and I hope CoMiC does as well.
Next up, I’ve got some more reptilian creature features since I know CoMiC likes doing those. Starting with the two Alligator ๐ movies, Alligator ๐, which is the second movie with Robert Forrester I’ve mentioned on this list besides Dragon Wars ๐, except in Alligator ๐ he’s the main star, and its sequel, Alligator II: The Mutation ๐, which a lot of people say isn’t as good as the first Alligator ๐, but I’m sure CoMiC would find a way to have fun with it. I’ve got a few more alligator movies ๐ here, The Bayou AKA Gator Creek ๐, Crawl (2019), which I have seen on his shelf full of DVDs ๐ and Blu-Rays ๐ฟ so he might do it someday, The Flood (2023), which is another alligator movie ๐ set during a hurricane ๐ in Florida. Meth Gator ๐ AKA Attack of the Meth Gator ๐, which is of course a Cocaine Bear ๐ป ripoff obviously, there’s a lot of those actually including this movie called Cocaine Shark ๐ฆ AKA Kanizame Shakurabe ๐ฆ๐ฆ, which actually isn’t about a shark ๐ฆ that does cocaine, but rather a crab/shark hybrid ๐ฆ๐ฆ, which is what the Japanese title ๐ฏ๐ต roughly translates to: Crab Shark ๐ฆ๐ฆ.
They just slapped the Cocaine Shark ๐ฆ title onto it because Cocaine Bear ๐ป was really popular and they wanted to cash-in on it ๐ค. Simple as that. Even if calling it Cocaine Shark ๐ฆ is just straight up false advertising because the crab/shark hybrid ๐ฆ๐ฆ never does cocaine once in the entire movie. They didn’t go back add cocaine elements to the story to make the title make sense, they just changed the title and called it a day. Come to think of it though ๐ค, there really aren’t that many creature features about crabs ๐ฆ, lobsters ๐ฆ, or even shrimps ๐ฆ are there? You’d think there’d be more, but there aren’t. I guess people don’t want to creature features about things that they eat, but if that’s the case how do explain Black Sheep ๐ (2006) or the countless killer boar movies ๐? Sure, people don’t eat wild boar ๐ on a daily basis, most of the pork we eat comes from domestic pigs ๐. But, they’re still pigs, wild pigs, they’re where domestic pigs ๐ are derived from, so they still count.
But don’t worry, the alligator ๐ in Meth Gator ๐ actually does do meth. I don’t know if CoMiC should do Cocaine Shark ๐ฆ, it’s not one of my personal recommendations/requests, but if he wants to, he can. I ain’t gonna stop him. There’s also this 2016 alligator movie ๐ called Freshwater ๐ฆ that I think CoMiC oughta consider. Next up is Dinocroc, Supergator, and Dinocroc vs. Supergator. All of which were produced by Roger Corman. Word of warning if you do these movies CoMic if you’re reading this, especially Dinocroc vs. Supergator, the Dinocroc and the Supergator look nothing how they look in their individual movies, in fact, they look way worse. Then there’s this movie called Xtinction: Predator X AKA Alligator X ๐, which is about a Pliosaurus, a type of prehistoric marine reptile that was often referred to as Predator X in the years after it was discovered. Don’t know why, but it was ๐คท♂️. So, the alternate title is wrong because the creature isn’t an alligator ๐ at all. And to close this section, I’m going to recommend/request a killer snake movie ๐ because I know CoMiC likes those, Mega Snake ๐.
We’re almost done, we just got two more sections left ✌️, so let’s get through this. The next section are a bunch of hybrid movies, movies about hybrid creatures. I already mentioned one ☝️, Cocaine Shark ๐ฆ, which is about a crab/shark hybrid ๐ฆ๐ฆ, and of course the Sharktopus ๐ฆ๐ trilogy, but there’s also Hammerhead: Shark Frenzy ๐ฆ AKA Sharkman ๐ฆ AKA Hammerhead, just Hammerhead. Hammerhead is basically about a shark/human hybrid ๐ฆ, specifically a hammerhead shark/human hybrid because based on inaccurate science, the mad scientist ๐จ๐ฌ in the movie, Dr. King believes that hammerhead sharks are the smartest sharks ๐ฆ in the ocean. Smarter than even Great Whites ๐ฆ. He created it because his son was dying of cancer, and as a way of curing his son’s cancer, he combined his DNA ๐งฌ with shark DNA ๐ฆ๐งฌ because sharks ๐ฆ apparently never get cancer (according to Deep Blue Sea and this movie), and turned him into this hybrid abomination. Now he’s obsessed with getting his shark/human hybrid son ๐ฆ to reproduce by impregnating women ♀︎ that he kidnaps and brings to the island ๐️ where he’s conducting his experiments, so that he can create more shark/human hybrids ๐ฆ so they can replace the human race. All in hopes that he can eventually create a real life Atlantis one day populated by these things. So, that’s the second shark movie ๐ฆ I’ve mentioned in this post that has to do with Atlantis in some way.
But, the main plot involves Dr. King inviting his former colleagues to the island ๐️ under the guise of showing off his latest research, when really, he just wants his son to kill them all, as revenge for not doing enough to save him. So, they have to try to find a way off the island ๐️, and kill Dr. King and his shark/human hybrid son ๐ฆ, who has lost all his humanity and become nothing more than a savage beast. The main reason I’m recommending this movie besides the bonkers premise, is Jeffery Combs’s performance. He plays Dr. King, and is one of the highlights of the movie, besides the creature itself obviously. He’s Resident Evil villain material I would say with his crazy ass plan. It kind of reminds me of Morpheus’s plan in Resident Evil: Dead Aim. And yes, the main villain in Resident Evil: Dead Aim really is named Morpheus. He turns into a B.O.W. (Bio-Organic Weapon), a Tyrant looking thing with electricity powers ⚡️ that has a rather feminine appearance (complete with feet that look like high heels ๐ ), which I guess fits in with his plan of trying to make the world more beautiful or something. I would recommend/request Creature (1998) AKA Peter Benchley’s Creature which is also about a shark/human hybrid ๐ฆ, but the only problem with recommending/requesting Creature (1998) is that it’s a miniseries and not a movie. I mean, I guess if CoMiC really wanted to review it, he could review all the episodes together as if it were a movie. Most people probably do that anyway, that’s kind of what binge watching is. But, it looks pretty good, and the creature looks awesome. It was designed by Stan Winston, so it’s not a surprise that it looks good, and that alone makes it worth watching.
The next one up is Snakeman ๐ AKA The Snake King ๐, which I don’t even know why it’s called Snakeman ๐ or why it’s even considered a hybrid movie because the snake monster ๐ in the movie isn’t a snake/human hybrid ๐. It’s a giant multi-headed snake ๐, like a Hydra. It doesn’t even look like a snake ๐, it looks more like a legless lizard, in fact it kind of looks like the Basilisk from Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets if it had multiple heads, which was actually based off of a legless lizard rather than a snake ๐. But the next movie is an actual hybrid movie, Mosquito-Man ๐ฆ AKA Mansquito ๐ฆ. It’s basically about this escaped convict who gets turned into a mosquito/human hybrid ๐ฆ after being experimented on I guess, and once he turns into a mosquito/human hybrid ๐ฆ, he goes on a rampage, killing anyone he comes into contact with. Even though of course, male mosquitoes ๐ฆ♂︎ are not the ones who bite people and drink their blood ๐ฉธ, only females ♀︎ do that because they need the protein to produce their eggs. The males ♂︎ just drink nectar. If a man ♂︎ really did get turned into a mosquito/human hybrid ๐ฆ, he’d be pretty harmless. All he’d want to drink is nectar. The only things he’d be a threat are flowers ๐ผ๐ธ๐บ๐ชป. But whatever, it’s just a movie.
I think it would be more fitting if they made a Mosquito-Woman ๐ฆ movie, or Womansquito ๐ฆ, since as a female ♀︎, it would actually drink blood ๐ฉธ since the woman ♀︎ would share the same sex/gender as the mosquitoes ๐ฆ that do drink blood ๐ฉธ. But, maybe in the future, some will do that. I might even write a story about that. CoMiC if you’re reading this, I occasionally write short stories, and I wrote one about giant killer bed bugs that will hopefully be up on my blog by the time this goes up. If it is, I’ll link it here for you to read…if you’re interested. Since I mentioned women ♀︎, I would to recommend/request Splice ๐งฌ (2009), which is from the same director as Cube (1997), Vincenzo Natali, which I know CoMiC has seen since he mentioned it in his Boa vs. Python review when listing off the things David Hewlett has been in, and has often been compared to the movie, Species (1995) even though it’s really nothing like it other than the basic idea of a genetically engineered creature ๐งฌ created in a lab that looks like a sexy chick ♀︎…at first. Although Species (1995) would be another good one for CoMiC to review on his channel, along with all the sequels, Species II, Species III, and Species – The Awakening.
But, I like Splice ๐งฌ (2009), and I think CoMiC would probably like it too, especially if he liked Cube (1997), or any of David Cronenberg’s work, which this is heavily inspired by (unabashedly so), especially The Fly ๐ชฐ (1986). It’s got some scenes that I feel like are intentionally meant to make the viewer uncomfortable, like there are parts of the movie that feel like they were designed to make you uncomfortable, like the scene where Adrian Brody’s character, Clive Nicoli has sex with Dren, the genetic chimera ๐งฌ that he and the female scientist ๐ฉ๐ฌ, Elisa Kast created, and the part at the end where Dren turns male ♂︎ and rapes Elisa and impregnates her ๐คฐ, even though Dren was created using some of her DNA ๐งฌ. So it’s like incest and bestiality at the same time ๐ฐ๐คฎ. I’m sure CoMiC would probably comment on those moments if he reviewed the movie. I also found Elisa to be kind of annoying in the movie, like it was her idea ๐ก to create Dren in the first place because she wanted to repeat the experiment of mixing the DNA ๐งฌ of different animals to create new organisms with Fred and Ginger (these gross worm looking things) but with human DNA ๐งฌ, and she’s constantly making decisions that put them in more danger.
Like, when Dren becomes too difficult to control and they probably should kill her, Elisa doesn’t want to because she sees Dren as her daughter, until all of a sudden she does want to kill Dren, and she makes Clive out to be the bad guy after he has sex with Dren. I mean, he’s still kind of in the wrong for doing that ๐ฐ, but he was the voice of reason up until then telling Elisa that it was a bad idea to create Dren (which it was), and she constantly makes him seem like the bad guy for even suggesting that creating Dren was a mistake and they should kill her before she truly becomes a threat. And then she all of a sudden does want to Dren, she once again makes him out to be the bad guy, and acts morally superior even though she very much is not. And to make it even worse, she doesn’t even go through it. And then Dren does come a real threat, proving Clive right all along ๐คฆ♂️. She’s probably the worst character in the entire movie, and she faces very little consequence for any of her actions, and she kind of drags the movie down. But, on the plus side, it’s got David Hewlett, as Clive and Elisa’s boss, William Barlow. He dies at the end, Dren kills him when he shows up at the barn that they’re hiding her in, to confront them after they accidentally gave him DNA samples ๐งฌ from Dren instead of Fred or Ginger ๐คฆ♂️. This is when Dren changes sex and becomes a male ♂︎, just like Ginger did.
For the last section, I’m going to list off a few movies that don’t really fit into one category but I still want to list here anyway, as well as a couple of movies that skirt the line of whether or not they really count as creature features. First off is Unseen Evil 2 AKA Alien 3000, which is a sequel to another alien movie ๐ฝ called Unseen Evil AKA The Unbelievable AKA Unseen. I’ve never seen the first Unseen Evil, just the second one, and for the longest time, I didn’t even know it was a sequel, because when I rented it at the video store, it was called Alien 3000. I genuinely thought it was an Alien movie because it was called Alien 3000 and the creature on the cover looked like a Xenomorph. Imagine my disappointment when I actually watch the movie, and the creature looks nothing like that. The only thing I remember about the movie is the main character, this girl ♀︎, kills the creature using a sword, and then at the very end, a spaceship ๐ธ lands and a whole bunch of the same alien creature ๐ฝ walk off the ship on that little ramp. It was pretty bad, but even though it is pretty bad, I still want CoMiC to do it because I think he can make some excellent jokes with this one. He can make a bad movie entertaining. Since he’s doing the second Unseen Evil, he should probably do the first one first. I would give me a chance to finally see what it’s all about.
Since I mentioned a fake Alien movie, or a movie pretending to be an Alien movie, why don’t I mention a couple of legitimate ones: Alien vs. Predator (2004) and Aliens vs. Predator: Requiem. I think those would both make for some fun reviews, and I’d be really curious to see what CoMiC thinks of them, since they kind of have a mixed reputation within the Alien and Predator fandoms. Some people like them, others really hate them and feel they both damaged the Alien and Predator franchises. I’d be really curious to see CoMiC lands on that spectrum. And then maybe he could also review Predator 2. I mean, he reviewed the first Predator movie with Arnold Schwarzenegger, so why not do Predator 2? It’s equally as good, at least in my opinion. In fact, I actually prefer Predator 2 to Predator, though that’s just a personal preference of mine. I mean, it’s directed by the same guy ♂︎ who directed The Ghost and the Darkness, Stephen Hopkins, that’s got to be enough of a reason to check it out.
Oh, and since he did Gargantua (1998), which is often considered to be a ripoff of Godzilla (1998), why not actually do Godzilla (1998)? I know he probably doesn’t like that movie since he loved a comment ❤️ deriding the film in the comment section of his Gargantua (1998) review, I like Godzilla (1998) and I think CoMiC could do a pretty entertaining review of it. I mean, it’s got three Simpsons voice actors in it, that’s reason enough to do I think. But of course, if he does do Godzilla (1998), he’s gotta do Yonggary (1999), since that movie’s also considered a ripoff of Godzilla (1998). It was trying to be to Yonggary (or Yongary with one “G”) what Godzilla (1998) was to Godzilla. There were a lot of movies trying to rip off Godzilla (1998) weren’t there? Probably because they thought it was going to be the next big thing, when it ended up being a dud. But like I said, I still like it, and I have a lot of nostalgia for it to this day. I hold a lot of sentimentality towards anything that came out in the year 1998 because that was the year I was born. It’s what got me into Godzilla. That and Godzilla Against Mechagodzilla.
There’s Anonymous Rex, a movie about dinosaurs that disguise themselves as humans and live amongst humans. The best way I can describe it is that it’s like the anime show, Wolf’s Rain ๐บ but if you switched out the wolves ๐บ with dinosaurs. Which is a huge upgrade in my book ๐. It’d be a huge upgrade in Brandon’s book that’s for sure because he loves dinosaurs. It’s based on a book ๐, which I didn’t know until years later. I’ve only ever seen it once, but it always stuck with me all these years because of its wild premise. And I think it would an interesting movie for CoMiC to cover because it is such a unique movie with a unique concept. There’s a killer bird movie I would like to recommend/request, it’s called Kaw ๐ฆ⬛, which is about a bunch of killer ravens ๐ฆ⬛ or crows ๐ฆ⬛ that attack this small towns. It’s kind of like The Birds, but if the only bird was ravens/crows ๐ฆ⬛. Harpies, which stars one of the Baldwin brothers, Stephen Baldwin, and was actually executively produced by none other than Stan Lee (the Marvel guy ♂︎) if you can believe it.
There’s also this movie called Bad Hair ๐♀️ (2020), which is about women’s hair ๐♀️ that comes to life and starts killing them. It’s in a similar vein to movies like Zombeavers ๐ฆซ or Slotherhouse ๐ฆฅ, where they’re quirkier creature features that are more self aware about how ridiculous they are and are constantly winking at the audience ๐ instead of just playing everything 100% straight like a 1990s or 2000s creature feature would, that came super prevalent in the 2010s and 2020s which Bad Hair ๐♀️ (2020) is. It’s a year 2020 movie. But, the concept is fun, and the gore is pretty good from what I saw in Carnage Counts’s video on it, so it’s a movie to consider. Rawhead Rex would be a good one. Brandon and Decker Shado have both done reviews of it already, the only ones who need to do it are Double Toasted ๐ and CoMiC of course. I can already imagine the jokes he’d make about the golden shower scene, where Rawhead pees on that priest who becomes his minion as a way of “baptizing” him. The priest literally rips open his shirt, exposing his chest, and then Rawhead lets it rip. Sprays him down. Being baptized by Rawhead pretty much means you get a golden shower from him.
Then there’s Evolution (2001), the Ivan Reitman alien movie ๐ฝ starring David Duchovny, Orlando Jones, Julianne Moore, and Seann William Scott. The only reason I’m not sure about recommending/requesting this movie is that it’s a comedy, and I’m not sure if CoMiC is willing to review a comedy, even it does have creatures in it, some pretty looking creatures. That’s why I find recommend or request Men in Black or any of its sequels because those comedies. Although the first Men in Black is the one out of the four (yes, I am including Men in Black: International) that is the most like a creature feature because the main villain of that movie is a giant alien cockroach ๐ฝ๐ชณ, and he reveals his true form at the end, and it’s essentially K and J fighting a giant bug. It becomes a giant bug movie. The last couple of movies are the ones that skirt the line, starting with The Mummy (1999) and its sequels, The Mummy Returns and The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor ๐๐น๐ผ. I would for CoMiC to do a review of The Mummy (1999), but I don’t know if I should recommend it/request it because it is more of an adventure movie rather than a creature feature. But, mummies count as creatures, they even refer to Imhotep as a “creature” when he is a mummy in the actual movie. So I say “Why not?” Go ahead and do it. And do the sequels too. And now we get to the one that really skirts the lines, Ghosts of Mars AKA John Carpenter’s Ghosts of Mars. I know it’s not really a creature feature, but CoMiC if you’re reading this, I would like for you to cover this one. I would love to see this movie get the full CoMiC treatment, I think it would be a lot of fun.
