Geschichte
In the small town of Wheelsy, a meteor crashes into a wealthy man's property. The local authorities, including Sheriff Bill Pardy and his deputy, are called to investigate but soon become infected by an alien parasite that turns them into zombies and mutates them into various monsters. Meanwhile, the infected wealthy man's wife, Starla, survives the initial outbreak and teams up with her estranged husband's handyman, Mike, to fight against the growing number of mutants. As the infection spreads throughout Wheelsy, Mike and Starla must use their limited resources and knowledge about the parasite to save themselves and any remaining uninfected townspeople.
Zusammenfassung
Slither is a horror-comedy film directed by James Gunn in 2006. Set in the small town of Wheelsy, the story revolves around an alien parasite that arrives via meteor and turns residents into zombies and various mutant creatures. The plot follows several characters as they attempt to survive and fight back against the infection. While not explicitly stated in the provided sources, the film is known for its over-the-top gore, dark humor, and blend of horror and sci-fi elements. Slither serves as a tribute to classic B-movie horror films with its campy dialogue, exaggerated performances, and creative creature designs.
