Sam Panico Lithis is a lot like Godzilla. He comes from radiation, he's green and he wants to make humanity pay. But really, the comparisons stop there.Shot over twelve fifteen-hour days, Slithis seems like it was hell for the actor who portrayed the monster, Win Condict. He had to be sewn into the rubber Slithis costume at the beginning of every day and stay in it until shooting was done. There were no buttons. No zippers. Only Slithis.The monster's rage starts with dogs, who frankly had nothing to do with his condition. Please join our dog Angelo in his protest of movies that use threatening and murdering dogs to cheaply draw our attention.My biggest question is why is Wayne Connors' (the hero of the film) wife named Jeff (Judy Motulsky from the little known Idaho Transfer)?The entire first hour of this movie concerns the boring research and tracking of the creature. By the time they find him, it's shocking just how well done the costume is. It doesn't need hidden, so why did we have to wait so long to see it?No, instead the film forces us to watch a turtle race. I kid you not. You know what? That's actually kind of awesome that instead of telling a gripping, horror-filled tale, the directorial choice was to show the entirety of a race between animals that are classically known as the slowest around.

drsmcduncan This amateur movie, which somehow made it to late-night TV is without a doubt the worst monster movie I have ever seen. The story is incoherent and the main characters overshadowed by long sequences dominated by one-dimensional minor characters. I am sure that it is no coincidence that all but a few of the actors in this film never appeared in another and for all but a couple of those who did, Slithis was their final effort. The monster is ridiculous but not as ridiculous as the story or the acting. I hesitate to call it the worst monster movie ever only because I cannot claim to have seen every monster movie ever made. So bad it's really just bad.

DFHaleIII This film came out around the same time that "It's Alive," "The Incredible Melting Man," and "Bug," among others, were coming out. There was a whole slew of these cheesy B-Horror Flicks being released, and this one stands out in my memory as a fun time at the movies. With a monster akin to the Swamp Thing, it had the horror aspect, with plenty of that late 70's, Russ Meyer-esque titillation thrown in for good measure. Not too heavy on plot, it makes up for it with what they believed at the time to be grossness. They did a fairly good job of it. If you like B-Horror Flicks, you'll like "Spawn of the Slithis."

veggeta This movie is basically something you want to avoid.Unless you're a die hard cheap horror fan.And event then the movie is still not enjoyable.The film is as one would expect overloaded with bad acting,ridiculous scientific explanations, and annoying stereotypes.Its a good film to bypass.Instead see 'They Bite' or 'Humanoids from the Deep'.
