Synopsis

A mother obsessed with mind-altering televangelism consequently vomits a pulsating growth that slithers down the throat of her son during the night. Upon spewing the parasite, the son is driven by an uncontrollable force to murder and feed corpses to the now-multiple-toothed monsters manifesting throughout the house. This gory, shot-on-Super-8 regional rarity is a micro-budget salute to H.G. Lewis and H.P. Lovecraft. — Evan Husney, Drafthouse Films

alistairc_2000 When some people watch a horror movie they expect it to be a slasher or it is not a horror movie. This movie is heavily influenced by Shivers. What it keeps it original is it mixes this with Christianity. The abomination features one of the most original monsters I have seen in many years.Also the music is superb and sets the movie up very well.The basic story is that a man is having problems with his mother watching an evangelist. After this the mother coughs up a tumour which turns into this monster the abomination. The son has to keep the abomination alive and to do so he needs blood, sinew and flesh. He goes around killing as many people as possible to quench the abominations thirst for blood.This is a really low budget shocker and if you like you movies really cheap and off the wall this might be for you.
trashgang I searched a long time to find an uncut version of this flick, unavailable here were I am living and on the net you could only find VHS versions but in the NTSC format. Luckily I met a guy who could deliver me the DVD of it. This is odd, the editing is weird, some shots are used a few times again and again. Then suddenly he's running after the girl again he killed earlier, same sequence. But somehow the movie didn't bored me like it did with others. i have seen worser then this, count on that. it's up to you to choose. You can watch the 2 minutes before the starting credits. They have edited all the gore in it, just like a trailer or teaser. Or you can watch the movie and see all the gore again. The storyline is easy to understand, mom has a tumor and by coughing it comes out, but somehow the tumor lives, made me think of brain damage only here they used real effect, brain damage was stop motion. The tumor find his way to her kid, he swallows it and start becoming a killer. But before he kills the movie is half way, before that it's blah blah and driving around, only 2 killings, the gore appears in the second part. The blood flows frequently and in a gory way. Any how, i was happy to see this cult flick and I even had to laugh with it sometime, wait until the preacher is in the toilet-room. Be sure to have a decent copy because it's a transfer from NTSC VHS to PAL DVD.
cool_cool_1 The abomination (1986) is a ultra cheap and rare horror movie!!! It's about this young man called Cody who lives with his religious mother, the mum coughs up this tumour which starts turning into a monster, the monster controls Cody to kill his friends and bring it food to make it stronger, can Cody fight the monster or will he be just become another victim!!! The film is so bizarre, ultra low budget, it throws in some really fake gore and there's this music that keeps turning up during the movie, music that seems to stay in your head for ages!!! The Abomination is very bad, no doubt about it, but it's really funny and has entertainment value, it's in the "so bad it's good" bracket, and therefore i'll give this Abomination 5/10.
EyeAskance Pious Catholic lady watches a TV sermon given by a shady televangelist, which apparently causes her to hack up a bloody lung cookie. The slimy little tumor wanders about for some time, and ultimately grows into an absurd looking thing which resembles a gooey cousin of H.R. Pufnstuff with long spiked teeth. The flesh hungry beast takes residence within her kitchen cabinets and telepathically enslaves her son, forcing him to commit murders to feed it. It's really hard to believe that this preposterous storyline actually made it off the drawing board to materialize as something somewhat similar to a motion picture. Bear in mind, THE ABOMINATION is entirely under-the-barrel in countless ways, but to think that someone believed they could make a legit feature about this huge, lumpy puppet is bewildering...it's the most rubbish excuse for a monster since THE CREEPING TERROR(and even THAT one looks good next to THE...*cough*...ABOMINATION). Mercy, there are SO many things to mention(yes...all bad)...the cottage cheese rolling out of the headless neck...the ultrasubminimalist Casio score...the montage at the start of the film that shows you everything you're about to see...the actress named GAYE BOTTOMS(poor girl... *snicker). In short, this is something SPECIAL, folks. Oh, yes it is. Special in that magical "short-bus kid" sort of way. Bear it and grin...this is a die-laughing experience.
