Reviews for H.G. Wells' The Food of the Gods
without even a hint of irony, fun, thrills, imagination, or anything else approaching entertainment
Mosquitos that can puncture a man's entire head. How can you go wrong with that, I ask you.
Schlocky, schlocky sci-fi/horror, circa 1976. And it stars Marjoe Gortner. Say more?
