It was pretty much a complete mess of a movie, although a thumbs up to the shit monster. Would keep anybody off the toilet for a while

4/10 -> D

My main problem with this movie is that it's so camp and yet it's trying to be so serious. When you have alien that reproduce inside you and then you shit them out how serious can you be?!?!? And the whole Duditz storyline felt awkward.

Until the last third, I was actually digging the sheer insanity and bad taste and conceptual lunacy of Dreamcatcher. I really was. But the Duddits nonsense, climaxing with that weird CGI blob sex which served as plot resolution, ended all my fun. What a terrible ending.

Ditto. It felt so preposterous it was actually good. But when the mystery around Duditz started to get resolved everything fell apart and the movie pooped itself hard.

A really shitty adaptation of a really shitty novel.
