"Most absurd reason for censorship cuts to a horror movie in the 00s":

The ending was a little out of left feild, I agree. I'm going to see it again tomorrow to see how it holds up to a second viewing.

I though it was a tight, frightening little flick let down only by the deja vu of the original. On the plus side, I wasn't able to put a 'death list' together as I genuinely didn't have a clue as to who would survive and what order they would snuff it.

Great film, reminded me of the gore drenched 80's movies. Stupid and really disgusting!

Bad Biology made me laugh - I'm not sure how much of a fan I am of R.A. the Rugged Man's input, and it's not a patch on Brain Damage or Basket Case. But there's still plenty to like about it - many laugh out loud moments and twisted visuals. It's fun.

I rate "Storm Warning" quite highly and not just because it ended up on the list of "Banned Movies" in Germany- in its "softer" Austrialian theatrcial version

Forgot all about "Teeth" and "Slither". yes, those two were fun too!

Haven't gotten round to "Bad Biology" yet, but so far no Hennenlotter film since the great 80's-fest "Brain Damage" did really float my boat...
