Slime City (1988)

Alex (Robert C. Sabin) is a young artist who is looking for an apartment with his beautiful girlfriend Lori (Mary Huner); they end up getting a sweet
deal which in no time at all he quickly moves into the affordable, clean apartment. Alex is now all set; he finally has a nice apartment to work in and
is close by his Lori's house and, only a few blocks from the video store where he works. He then meets the other tenants in the building, right next
door to him he has a gothic sex crazed hooker called Nicole (who is also played by Mary Huner) and the tenant below him a punk called Roman
(Dennis Embry) who not long after invites Alex over for a dinner at his place. Roman serves Alex a strange green slime jello which he calls
“Himalayan Yogurt”, Alex not being rude gives it a taste test, which it passes and beings to chow into it. Its not long after, Alex goes back home
and he starts to experiences strange side effects that was caused by the green slimy goo Roman gave him, his skin starts to melt, bubble and
slime beings to sweat from his pores causing him to look like a deformed slimy homicidal monster who has only one urge, and that is to kill, kill, kill,
which then transfers Alex back into human form again. Later on in the movie we then find out that the reason the landlord gave Alex the
apartment, and it was to resurrect her father who used to be a cult leader Zachary (Daniel Frye) and all the tenants living in the building are is
former followers who have also been resurrected from the slimy goo, which Zachary made before him and his followers who committed mass
suicide years before. Alex tries to fight off Zachary from possessing his body and also tries to hide the side effects by wrapping himself in bandages
so people can't see his disfigured face while walking the streets of New York. Sooner or later he becomes possessed and the killer instincts of
Zachary comes into play, and he then becomes a brutal killing machine dripping with ooze and doesn't stop killing homeless bums, hookers,
gangsters and until turning those close by him. Can Alex overcome Zachary murderous urges or Zachary will possess his body forever.

Slime City is a low budget ooze fest that was shot directly on film, and is directed and written by Greg Lamberson who i have never heard or seen
Slime City until now.
Slime City was Greg Lamberson's first ever feature film and man does this film leave you sick in the guts. The special effects
artists Scott Coulter and Tom Lauten did a fucking awesome in
Slime City, both guys have also worked on films such as Street Trash and The
Toxic Avenger
, and they're work on Slime City was just as sick as those 2 films. I can handle watching zombies or cannibals rip apart people or
furry little animals and would not faze me one fucking bit. But some of the scenes in
Slime City, man it will make you cringe in your seat while your
gut roll, the scene when Alex starts to transform into the slimy deformed Zachary, his skin starts to sweat this yellow slime pus that's kinda looks
like gonorrhea, just dips out of his skins pores and straight onto the floor, trust me it will turn you off eating custard for life "just check out the
pictures on the left". Also the death scenes are wild, Alex smashes the head in of a homeless bum with a lead pipe, a gangster who tries to mug
him stabs Alex in the stomach with his
Rambo knife while his arm gets caught swallowed and devoured, and the ending which is the goriest scene
of them all which i wont tell you much about it, but it does contains a lot of blood, pus, ooze and several limbs amputated by a meat cleaver.


Naked Fear (1999)

Slime City is also jam packed with extras you have a full length bonus feature film called Naked Fear which was also written and directed by Greg
Lamberson in 1999. Both films "
Slime City, Naked Fear" from Greg Lamberson have audio commentaries, the Making Slime which is about a look
back to the special effects and behind the scenes of
Slime City, Shock-O-Rama - A year of shocks where you will see other actors from other
Shock-O-Rama films at Horror Conventions and that. And not to mention a good handful of Retro Shock Trailers that will give you a good idea what
other fantastic titles Shock-O-Rama have got install for you.

Those who would like to know a little about
Naked Fear, well its roughly about man called Camden (Robert C. Sabin) who suffers from
agoraphobia (the fear of open spaces), where he is confined to his apartment due to a childhood trauma that happened 10 years ago when a
street thug who point blank and shot dead his Camdens parents after he steals his fathers wallet just step 2 feet out of there front door. He then
seeks a room mate Randy (Tommy Sweeney) who suffers from claustrophobia, to keep him company. Camden soon catches on that there more to
Randy and realizes his room mate is a psychopathic killer, who walks the street killing hookers, pimps and lawyers cause there the scum of the
earth. He also tries to kill Camden's girlfriend Julie (Peggy Crow) cause Randy believes chicks are great as long as you keep them in line, but
friends are forever.

Naked Fear was shot on video and isn't as gory or vile as Slime City, but still not too bad to check out, the acting in Naked Fear was a tad bit
better, but personally i rather
Slime City than Naked Fear, but you can't whine about this package. Gorefans will enjoy every drop of Slime City
and if you can't handle the slime well you have
Naked Fear to fall back on. Just a warning though Slime City is movie, that will leave you dry
reaching every time you think about it.
