Review of Aberration

Aberration (1997)
7/10
Lizard stomp: the little movie that could
26 October 2019
I found this on VHS at my local thrift store. I expected I night in with laughable nonsense. This is laughable, don't get me wrong, but this is a genuinely good creature feature.

What "Aberration" lacks in plot originality or cliche it more than makes up for in characters, performances, and fun. Lots of zany over the top acting with a sense of self awareness. The characters feel genuine and fun.

What makes Aberration "work" is knowing how to give the viewer what they want: blood, violence, and creature effects. New and creative kills are constantly in motion, though I suspect the film maker and I share a favorite: the lizard stomp.

Check it out with some friends. Bring some snacks and drinks.
