Eve Tushnet Patheos As seamy and strange as its reputation promises. I loved this weird, sad film. Mar 4, 2019 Full Review James Kendrick Q Network Film Desk a fun slice of Reagan-era monster madness that embodies more than a few of its era's political and environmental fears Rated: 3/4 Dec 3, 2016 Full Review Rob Vaux Mania.com Boring in the extreme, lurching along in search of diversion before fitfully delivering what the customers presumably paid to see. Rated: D+ Oct 24, 2014 Full Review James O'Ehley Sci-Fi Movie Page If Woody Allen's Manhattan was a cinematic love song to New York, then surely C.H.U.D. is its hate song! Feb 10, 2009 Full Review Chuck O'Leary FulvueDrive-in.com Rated: 1/5 May 7, 2007 Full Review Kevin Carr 7M Pictures I wanted to see this movie as a kid, but when I finally did, I was disappointed.

Raiodesol S It takes too long for things to start happening and the build up isnt well executed. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 10/28/24 Full Review Frank C An unsung classic from the 80s. Brilliantly capturing the filth and urban decay of 1984 New York City, to the point that the city itself becomes a character, and you can almost smell how bad it was then. NYC is still awful, but today they manage to hide it under a bunch of neon lights. This film is an incredible metaphor for government bureaucracy run amok. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 09/07/24 Full Review jay h This needs to be remade. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 08/17/24 Full Review Jay H Would somebody please explain to me how a C.H.U.D. could fit inside a shower drain??? Rated 2 out of 5 stars 08/10/24 Full Review KING S Another great 80”s horror flick , creepy and sets the viewer in a very dark place below the streets under NY tunnel ways where your always on edge wondering what’s going to pop up , infected homeless or the mutated monsters ? Rated 4 out of 5 stars 07/22/24 Full Review le m The slow-burn, bone-chilling, spine-tingling, genre-redefining gem that saved the party. How many shall watch? Millions, billions even!
