The Relic
Published by Scooter February 22nd, 2006 in Monster Flicks.This movie opens in the jungles of South America. A tribe of jungle people is performing some kind of dimly lit ritual… A white man screams in pain… cut to a shipyard… Then for the next ten minutes or so you have absolutely no idea what’s going on.
But pretty soon you learn that something is loose in Chicago’s Natural History museum! It decapitates people and dogs and eats their hypothalamuses! Towards the end, we see that it’s a giant shapeless puppet with big teeth that drools a lot. It was much scarier being an unknown entity. It looks a lot like Sweetums from the Muppet Show with fangs.
Anyway, there are lots of tense moments in this film, with yowling cats jumping for maximum scaring affect. Just about every plot device is used in this film, yet it’s so cheesy it works! And, this beast sounds exactly like the cleaning woman with asthma. Don’t be fooled!
