Rating:  - And you thought steroids were bad for you
Given the right combinations of vitamins/cognitive enhancers, there's no telling what the human body is capable of. Of course, if the formulas of such super vitamins aren't exactly right, you could be in for one bloody mess - and Body Melt is Exhibit A all the way. Some critics see the film as some sort of satire of suburban life, but all I saw was a really weird movie with bad - albeit gross - special effects. It would certainly be possible to impart some kind of actual message into this type ... Read More
Rating:  - A glimpse into Australian life.
Actually, that was just a little joke. 'Body Melt' is one of the best splatterfest/comedies I have ever seen despite the fact that I do believe I once lived in a place eerily similar to the fictious 'homesville'.
Anyone familiar with Aussie T.V will instantly recognise such famous faces as Neighbour's Ian Smith and Blue Heeler's Lisa McCune. Those of you who have no idea what I am talking about can rest assured that this movie is camp Aussie acting at it's best with lots of whacky nudity, ... Read More
Rating:  - If David Cronenberg Made A Comedy....
Apparently Austrailian director Brophy wanted to make a film to rival New Zealander Peter Jackson's gorefest, Dead Alive. The outrageous gore and humor are very Jackson-esque in Body Melt. But this film is crazy-100% nuts. It's not as gory as Jackson's film, but it's alot more off the wall. In fact, I'm surprised this film isn't a bigger hit amongst hardcore horror fans. Must not have had very good distribution or promotion, and that's a shame coz this film should be viewed at least once by any horror ... Read More
Rating:  - Terrible
One of the worst films ever. I consider myself to be fairly knowledgable in the realm of horror movies, even those played for laughs, but this one is just awful. Nothing happens for the first hour of the movie. When the "special effects" do finally show up, they are terribly fake and cheesy looking. Unintentionally hilarious, in fact. I get the attempted point of the film, one of scientific experimentation gone awry, it was just completely botched. There is no need for anyone to waste their time on this piece ... Read More
Rating: - Ridiculous
This flick is a curiosity.Most of the actors are quite known to have performed in series such as Blues Heelers,Home and away ...and see them in a "horror" movie made me smile.The budget sounds not too bad but how weak is the story.Effects are bad.I was expected something a bit similar to the P.JAckson Bad Taste and unfortunately I was wrong. There is more dialogue than horror or fx scenes.Some parts are funny but I am not sure that's the result they wanted at the end.Ridiculous.
