Slime City Massacre (2010)


Slime City Massacre (2010)

Desperate fugitives Cory (a solid and likable performance by Kalan Patrick Burke) and Alexa (an equally sturdy turn by pretty blonde Jennifer Behl) seek refuge from a totalitarian government in the bleak ruins of New York City seven years after a major bomb explosion. Cory and Alexa encounter fellow survivors Mason (well played by Lee Perkins) and Alice (an outstanding portrayal by the great Debbie Rochon). The quartet discover a hidden cache of booze and yogurt which has the unfortunate side effect of causing them to mutate into murderous slime-dripping subhuman freaks who are possessed by the spirits of the dead. Complications ensue when a band of mercenaries are sent in by ruthless real estate developer Ronald Crump (a funny cameo by Roy Frumkes) to clean up the neighborhood.

The two humorous and cricket-obsessed characters were played by Naunton Wayne and Basil Radford. ... The duo became very popular and were used as recurring characters in subsequent films, in BBC Radio productions, and eventually in their own BBC television series."
