Viewing Notes

Picked this up (the recent Scorpion DVD) in hopes of finally viewing it last month for 31 Days of Terror but couldn’t squeeze it in. Glad to see it now as it’s been on my watch list ever since I bought the movie poster a few years ago.

Not a great film by any stretch but a nice slice of canuxploitation. Weird premise with the mongoloid children growing up to be a monster stuck on an island. Teenagers get stranded there and the monster murders them. Pretty straightforward stuff and some brutal kills. Someday I’ll check out the commentary.
