I saw it at the screening in Chicago on Thursday night. Loved it. Very funny dialog, and some nice gross-out moments. I'll definitely be seeing it again.

I have seen Slither and thought it was crazy,horror fun. I also noticedone of the deputy's asked Bill (Nathan's character) if they should bring the gernade and he said no...shades of Serenity flashback boys and girls. Nathan did great.

Went to see it today with the hubby and a friend. We all liked it quite a lot. I thought it was actually funnier than Tremors.

it has an 86% now, and it's definitly an awesome.

a throwback to when horror movies were fun, like gremlins, critters, tremors, yada yada.

Yes he is the mayor. I saw the movie at it's first show at the local theater. I also dragged a freind who is not into horror movies & he laughed his ass off. It has some great effects if you like horror movies. It is also really funny. Laugh out loud funny. Nathan does a great job & I am not just saying that beacuse I'm a browncoat. The mayor can't remember his name is also hilarious. Just a good flick go see it.


Shiny' lets be bad guys!

Just saw it yesterday. It is delightfully disgusting, crazily creepy and wonderfully hilarious. It'll make you want to throw up and laugh while people die. See it! Plus it has the sheriff from the Train Job in it. There is great acting and real characters (which is, of course, almost unheard of in horror movies). Again, see it!

I went to see Slither as I promised, and stood up at the end and wished Nathan a happy birthday. I am not generally one for horror movies, because the people in them rarely have realistic reactions to the crazy sh** that is happening around them. Slither was hi- larious, not just because of the one-liners, but because the reactions were more realistic. I was pleasantly surprised by the movie. Also, from boxofficemojo.com, the production and ad costs are listed as N/A, which sometimes means that the numbers haven't been released, but usually means that they are rather small, so the movie should make its money back fairly quickly.

So who is he?
He's my husband.
Well who in the damn galaxy ain't!

I saw Slither opening night as I promised Nathan. ( I think we all did )
I loved the movie, I am not a horror flick fan, so it was a stretch even though Nathan was in it.
HILARIOUS! I agree with a lot of the responders above, lots of Firefly/Serenity flashes there, with the granade and a lot of the smart ass comments, you know, as if we took Mal, threw him back to 2006 and allowed him free use of the work "FUCK" lmao.

Now, for my rant of the evening ( morning, whatever )

The movie was spoiled for me by one ( or 5 ) little things... CHILDREN! Some idiot parents actually brought their VERY young children to this movie. SO, most of my evening, between laughs and "OWNED" shouts, was muchkins wondering around the theater, and crying about the evil slugs gonna get them. Can we say, NIGHTMARES??? ANYONE???

Nothing that I hate more than stupid parents... I mean jeez, my daughter is five, loves Firefly, and has a great ground on reality. BUT, I wouldnt allow her to see Star Wars Epidode III and I screened Harry Potter before allowing her to see it. "Slither" is NOT one she'll be seeing for the next oh... 12 yrs!

Its all so fancy, and there's some kind of hot cheese over there...

I liked it. It wasn't awesome, but it was good fun. I actually like Lake Placid a bit more, but I'd put Slither in that catagory. Some gory stuff w/ some damn funny lines tossed in there.

Oh, and 1 more thing. It's really great to see Nathan on the big screen again. It suits him just fine. Hope there's plenty more of that (sequel!) *cough* on the way.

People love a happy ending. So every episode, I will explain once again that I don't like people. And then Mal will shoot someone. Someone we like. And their puppy. - Joss
