Description
Prepare to squirm, shiver, and giggle with this unbelievable camp comedy monster bash! Herman Umgar (Herb Robins), an eccentric club-footed hermit with a fondness for nightcrawlers, lives in an old windmill house on the banks of a dried-up lakebed. Upon learning that only Herman stands in the way of a new condominium development, the town mayor and several businessmen conspire to get rid of this human obstacle by having him committed to the local loony bin. However, Herman's worm breeding pays off when he unleashes hordes of his wriggling friends to infiltrate the town's food and water supply--and soon the entire population goes worm crazy! Audio Commentary by producer Ted V. Mikels; Trailer

3 out of 5 stars My Dinner With Umgar.......2004-04-10

This is a really strange one. Umgar is an old man who wants to be left alone. But when unscrupulous parties want to kick him off of his land, Umgar strikes back.

Umgar has been using his land as a resort (that's a laugh but it gets more characters into the story).

Well, Umgar discovers that if people eat his worms they turn into worm people. Umgar sets out to put worms in the food of the bad guys (like sprinkling them on hot dogs).

Eventually worm people from the lake (unintentional victims) seek either women worm people or revenge on Umgar.

This is a wacky one that makes you wonder how people could not know they are chewing up worms. If seeing people with worms hanging out of their mouths is not for you, you should skip this one.

This film also boasts one of the silliest theme songs around (yup, sillier than the one from The Blob).

4 out of 5 stars HERB ROBINS IS FUNNY! FUNNY! FUNNY!!.......2004-03-30

Bill Murry in Caddy Shack meets Motel Hell! This Robins guy is a great comedy actor!! The reason I did not give it a five star is because the supporting acters are not very good. It's too bad a major film company did not pick up this gem. The worm eating is old hat: you see this on many TV shows. But seeing the characters turn into half worms, plus Robins, make this film. The commentary by producer Ted V. Mikels is interesting. I hope Ted keeps doing this on his DVD editions. THIS IS A MOVIE YOU WON'T FORFGET!

4 out of 5 stars Real, Real Gone..........2002-01-17

One of the strangest films I've ever seen. Unbelievable it was even made. Could only have happened in 1977. I have only seen the VHS copy of this film and it has been a few years, but while I've heard it described as Love Boat on acid, it gave me a real "sick in the head" daze. Lawdy.
