“A cross between Deliverance and Dawn of the Dead.”

When a toxic chemical spill tears open the ozone above rural Texas, backwoods locals mutate into drooling, slime-choked ghouls with an insatiable appetite for flesh. Environmental science student Arlene and hitchhiker Kevin stumble into the madness as small-town life collapses into a grotesque carnival of green vomit, yellow pus, and blood-soaked carnage.

Director Matt Devlen’s infamous Super-8 splatter oddity—sister film to Bret McCormick’s The Abomination (1988)—remains a true DIY regional relic, long overshadowed by its limited VHS release in the late ’80s via Muther Video. Overflowing with dubbed dialogue, surreal padding, Americana weirdness and gallons of inventive practical gore, the results are both unforgettable and stomach-churning.
