This is nostalgia at its most wrong, but also, for those of a certain mindset, it might prove a lost treasure from the trash - like the woman's arm that a passing bum finds in Donald's rubbish bin, and repurposes as a crotch- and back-scratcher. Go to Full Review

Kylo W Jun 16, 2017 A fun movie that is deffinetly not meant to be taken seriously. Technically this movie is horrible. It has cheap plastic body parts, a plot that doesn't make sense, and it didn't have much to do with the actual microwave. If you put that aside this movie was highly entertaining, and believe it or not it is actually funny at times. So overall if you just want to watch a nice fun, cheap, and some what funny film this one is perfect. See more
Abraham S Mar 28, 2017 Okay, this one is something that's always eluded me, but man, was I happy to finally give it a spin. The set-up is silly as hell, with a construction worker killing his wife and disposing of her corpse by making a meal out of her, but then he continues to kill, cooking up hookers in various delicious meals for both himself and others. The film,is loaded with tons of corny 'dad jokes' and what was a surprising amount do nudity considering it's just a low budget schlock film, but man, I really enjoyed it. Well worth a rental.

Albus P Mar 25, 2017 One of the strangest movies Ive ever seen. Jackie Vernon's bizarre deadpan performance helps make this utterly inept horror film a piece of trashy comedy gold. See more
Theodore R Feb 13, 2017 A bizarrely bad movie. It's not funny. It's not scary. There are some cheap gory effects, but that's about it. It's hard to believe anyone thought this was good film. It fails at every single level. Avoid. See more
