CGiii Comment

The title says it all - yes, the monster is gay. 

The monster is a cheap plastic model that wouldn't scare a paranoid kitten.

It pokes fun at every horror, sci-fi, superhero movie - the unfortunate thing is that it's just not funny.

Dahlin has made little else - so, this is possibly a made-for-personal-laughs project...if so, it works perfectly.

Shame it was released for general consumption.

The(ir) Blurb...

Monster is a spoof of horror/monster films. After several people and a dog are found dead in their closets a "mild-mannered" reporter, a college professor, her son and a befuddled professor band together to uncover the mystery but not without involving the U.S. Army and mass panic.
