Believe me, I understand the pain of hiding malformed troglodytes in containers.
Beyond the poor lighting, audio engineering, schlocky acting, and production lies a solid tragedy presented with an absurdist horror veneer
Something weird is going on in apartment 7
What can you say about it? The title says it all
A film I love to hate. Makes me laugh more than it scares me, but what’s so wrong with that? A true B-movie through and through.
Schlocky, entertaining horror movie with some charmingly bad effects and a - ahem - unique premise.
A pretty classic 80's b-movie. Beyond ridiculous and pretty funny. Any horror fan would most likely enjoy this movie.
Behind the terrible lighting and sound there is a bonkers movie with some holy shit effects.
B movie cult classic. I want belial as brother.
Completely ridiculous with really fun home made special effects.

A young man carrying a big basket that contains his deformed Siamese-twin brother seeks vengeance on the doctors who separated them against their will.
Having eluded the authorities after a series of grisly murders, the pair find sanctuary at the palatial home of Granny Ruth, an eccentric philanthropist who rallies the cause of "Unique Individuals". But even amongst "friends" the pair soon find themselves having to confront their murderous past.
Henelotter ups the ante in the final part of his trilogy by introducing a new member to the family: the potentially monstrous fruit of hideously deformed Belial's loins. With the pair still enjoying relative anonymity and comfort in their new found home (presided over by Granny Roth), things however take a downward turn on a trip to the Georgia Clinic of Uncle Hal, which leads to an encounter with an especially nasty redneck sheriff and his similarly blinkered band of merry men.
