The Abomination Trailers

A mother obsessed with mind-altering televangelism consequently vomits a pulsating growth that slithers down the throat of her son during the night. Upon spewing the parasite, the son is driven by an uncontrollable force to murder and feed corpses to the now-multiple-toothed monsters manifesting throughout the house. This gory, shot-on-Super-8 regional rarity is a micro-budget salute to H.G. Lewis and H.P. Lovecraft. — Evan Husney, Drafthouse Films

It is interesting even when nothing much happens, which is for most of its 3-hour running time. Read full review

I actually enjoyed this movie to an extent. I mean, the gore was actually very decent. The acting, however, was the exact opposite. It was horrible. It did indeed suck crap from a straw, but it had it's moments. What I want to know is why it showed all of the killings and stuff at the beginning? That was really my only complaint. I love the idea of the movie. A guy is mad at his mother because she is believing everything a TV evangelist is saying and all that. Then, she coughs up this weird little tumor. Then, it miraculously makes it into her son. It turns into a big funny looking monster and it's habitat is his cabinets and washing machine. Anyways, he is possessed, and the thing supposedly makes him kill people so he can feed "The Abomination!" What's really funny is the overrunning commentary where he's talking to a psychologist or whatever kind of doctor it is. I really don't recommend this movie at all. I just strive on total cheesefests.

Pious Catholic lady watches a TV sermon given by a shady televangelist, which apparently causes her to hack up a bloody lung cookie. The slimy little tumor wanders about for some time, and ultimately grows into an absurd looking thing which resembles a gooey cousin of H.R. Pufnstuff with long spiked teeth. The flesh hungry beast takes residence within her kitchen cabinets and telepathically enslaves her son, forcing him to commit murders to feed it. It's really hard to believe that this preposterous storyline actually made it off the drawing board to materialize as something somewhat similar to a motion picture. Bear in mind, THE ABOMINATION is entirely under-the-barrel in countless ways, but to think that someone believed they could make a legit feature about this huge, lumpy puppet is bewildering...it's the most rubbish excuse for a monster since THE CREEPING TERROR(and even THAT one looks good next to THE...*cough*...ABOMINATION). Mercy, there are SO many things to mention(yes...all bad)...the cottage cheese rolling out of the headless neck...the ultrasubminimalist Casio score...the montage at the start of the film that shows you everything you're about to see...the actress named GAYE BOTTOMS(poor girl... *snicker). In short, this is something SPECIAL, folks. Oh, yes it is. Special in that magical "short-bus kid" sort of way. Bear it and grin...this is a die-laughing experience.

OK I love bad horror , really bad Z horror..really bad "so horrible it's funny" type movies...but this movie is BORING....The thing is this movie has some hillarious moments of bad acting and dialogue "i'm feeling extra poorly"..or "IT WAS THE ABOMINATION"..but god this movie was a 90 minute bore fest...the movie drags drags drags..and all the good parts are in the very begining..including Cody waking up at least 10 x's on repeat...don't waste your time even to see gore...it's too damn boring...I fell asleep..I didnt even see the rest of it

There is NO reason to see this film. Not only are the effects super cheesy, but the acting is horrible, the 'suspenseful' parts are lame, and the film has little to no continuity. The Abomination makes 'Bloody New Year' look like a Scorsese film. I recommend watching paint dry over this movie.
