There is, somehow, an interesting story here, as well as some good acting. There are also some good scenes

Blistering performances.

The joyful confection is coated in a sparkly gloss, bright enough to gleam from the darkest, most cynical corners.

This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.

In my search for cool low-budget horror films I have come across tons of crap, so it makes a refreshing change to find one this good. Attack of the Beast Creatures is another one of those low-budget obscurities that'll never be very well known, but will be lapped up by bad movie lovers everywhere.A more suitable name for this might have been Attack of the Tree Dolls, because that's what these so-called "beast creatures" really are. They live in trees, and boy are they ferocious! They run in such a way that is absolutely hilarious. The film never threatens to get boring, although slightly verges on the tedious towards the end. There are many excellent scenes that more than make up for any faults. My favourite is when the delirious man thinks the woman's hair in front of him is one of the creatures, and we see a dolls face that looks back at him and "laughs". He then starts attacking the woman, runs off and melts away in an acid pool. Another great scene is when you can see the creatures' eyes in the dark. First one pair, then another... then there's loads of them. There's also a great scene when the tree creatures are huddled around some sort of statue that looks like a giant cracker, sadly this is only shown briefly. The musical score is also good and adds to the atmosphere. So far I think there's only bootlegs available - keeping checking ebay and you may be able to find one. There's also a website devoted to the film, where you can buy a DVD or poster: http://www.beastcreatures.com.

This was a real treat. The film starts off a little slow, so hang in there because once the action starts you will probably choke on your beer or mountain dew out of sheer hysterical laughter. In my journey through "grade Z" movies, it is movies like Attack of the Beast Creatures that make it all worth it. This is the type of movie that I put on that "special shelf" for the friends that don't want to have to think or invest much of themselves into a film. For those friends who you would like to impress with a movie so bad, that it is just beautiful. This was made at a time when bad films were at least still shot on film. Now days "grade z" movies are shot on daddy's new digital camcorder, so they don't have any real cinematic quality. This has some cinematic quality...OK, cinematic quality in a really "grade z" kind of way.If you want Freddie Kreuger, Jason, or The Ring Meets the Grudge Part 4, then go to your local Blockbuster. Leave the trash to us trashmongers...I love it!

I have in the past seen terrible reviews of this flick, I could never figure out why. I can see via other comments that this movie isn't as hated as I once thought. True the budget is almost non-existent, but considering the results, the director is a genius. The film is generally creepy throughout, some of the scenes don't work...But surprisingly most do. You will be entertained, and really who could ask for more than that?
A group of ship wreck survivors lands on an island in the middle of no where. Much of the islands water will cause their flesh to dissolve!! A tribe of creepy, hungry little folk inhabit this island...And want to devour the survivors! Not a good day. Get this movie if you can and give it a watch. 7/10

Despite what you may have read or heard, this silly low-budgeter is a great rental despite whatever shortcomings it has. However, you might have an impossible time trying to track down a tape because this has been out of circulation for years.Filmed in 1983, this concerns the struggle for survival among a small group of shipwreck survivors on a secluded island (really inland Fairfield, Connecticut, where this was filmed). A seemingly innocent water stream is actually full of acid as one poor parched man soon finds out, and worse, the island is home a cult of small, killer, TRILOGY OF TERROR-style dolls. The dolls have red faces, long black hair, glow-in-the-dark eyes and sharp pointy teeth. Their jaws open so they can screech and their arms move up and down when they scurry through the woods, but other than that, they are hilariously immobile.I don't want to get too much into the story, but some of the assault/ambush techniques devised by the little critters are very amusing and the low-level POV camera-work and eerie music score service the entertaining story very well. This film is a blast!Score: 6 out of 10
