Hideous! (1997)

How bad is it? It's wildly stupid. And very grotesque.
Should you see it? Yes -surprisingly.

Hey, Robot Monster, we found the rest of your costume.
Charles Band directed films starting in the 1970's, then went on to produce and to start at least two video outlets (Wizard Video, I remember, was one). This is one of his rare later directorial efforts. It's about collectors of human freak abortions discarded in waste - that probably has decided whether you'll see it or not - and one of them finds that his latest find is not dead and can animate the others, which then go on the attack. The best scene in the film has a woman, naked except for a gorilla mask, trying to, well, trust me, just watch this and find out.
