Prey For the Beast

Now days, you don’t see many horror flicks with monsters parading around in rubber suits in attempt to scare you. It just doesn’t stand to reason to use this method, with all the CGI and special effects available which, when combined, can give a person more of a cheap scare than rubber and latex ever thought about doing. This micro budget monster movie revolves around a rubber suited monster which massacres unsuspecting people who’ve dared to venture into its domain. The movie seeks to trek backwards in time in the 50s and 60s era of movies in which rubber suited monsters were believable. It does pulls the whole thing off.. with mediocre flair.

As it stands, a not so believable rubber suit will always trump a poorly choreographed CGI creature or scene, because the suit is real. Even though it’s not 100% realistic, it’s okay, because we’re speaking about a B-monster movie.
