I thought this was great. This was obviously at a time when Charles Band still cared about filmmaking and was putting out quality films with a ton of imagination and employing truly creative people and damn what the critics thought. It's really sad to see Empire movies like this and Re-Animator and then see what Band and Co have become with Evil Bong and Killjoy. The puppets, although not on par with Henson, are really creepy and well done nonetheless. The stop motion is a lot of fun as well as the indoor forest environments and there is truly a disturbing undercurrent to the various transformations that occur that would have surely given me nightmares as a kid. Sonny Bono's sleazeball bachelor character is one of the standouts and got a good laugh from me. Recommended.

Let’s not forget it stars a young Julia Louis-Dreyfus in her first film role, playing perhaps her most iconic character.
