Blue Monkey [VHS]
Take a fifties-style horror film in the tradition of "Them" and "The Fly," cross it with the spectacular special effects of the eighties and your've got BLUE MONKEY. This bizare tale of horror begins in a greenhouse where a mysterious plant rubs its first victim the wrong way. So wrong, in fact, that he lands at County Memorial Hospital where he gives "birth" to a hideous, worm-like creature!Police Detective Jim Bishop (Steve Railsback) and Doctors Glass and Carson (Susan Anspach, Gwynyth Walsh) manage to contain the "thing, " but within hours, the BLUE MONKEY has developed into a grotesque insect of gigantic proportions. Now roaming the corridors, looking for its favorite food -- human bones --, the creature is virtually indestructible. When it produces an egg-laying female, only one course of action seems apparent.
