Average Rating: 
Rating:  - Being a monster
One the best low-budget horror film. Effects are not bad for its time. Directed by the great Jackie Kong, the guy who gave us Blood Diner.
Rating:  - Terrible and not in a good way
When it comes to cult movies you'll be hard pressed to find a bigger fan than me. While I do enjoy mainstream movies ever since I was a child I always favored cult flicks. What most seem to write off as trash I see the greatness in. But The Being was pretty much for me a complete waste of time. I do understand the appeal; again being a fan of cult cinema I normally like these movies, but The Being was just flat out bad.
I wasn't expecting a brilliant masterpiece; I was expecting a cheesy ... Read More
Rating: - Fantastic B-Horror with Martin Landau!!
The Being is not a great movie. It's not even a really good movie. But as an absolutely enjoyable, laugh-aloud funny, cheesy B-level horror movie, this is possibly unbeatable!! Martin Landau is at his scenery-chewing best and gets to explain to viewers (as a government-hired expert on such things) how dumping radioactive waste into the local town water supply has no harmful effects (!!!)

Rating:  - "being"so bad it's good
i have to be fair this is really a fun movie to me. it's cheesey, and just bad, but i think it's the funniest movie i have seen in a while. martin landau still years away from oscar gold in "ed wood" must have really needed a job to even be seen in this one, and i'm sure he really loves the fact that thanks to dvd we can see the movie in all it's cleaned up widescreen glory.
oh kay here we go , the town of pottisville, idaho has been having some problems of late. it seems like after the toxic ... Read More
Rating: - the uninportance of "The Being"
any movie that starts in the middle can't be oscar worthery the lead actor's voice is dubed by James Keach (not sure if spelling is right), brother of Stachy Keach (see above),husband of "Dr. Quinn", and producer of "Walk the Line". I did enjoy ruth buzzi's death scene tho!!! Still i did find it very funny and great for a bad movie night with friends!!! (talk back to the screen as much as you like)
