Science Crazed (1991)

aka The Fiend

Another contender in the worst-film-ever-made competition, this has been released on video by the same people who released "Things."A scientist injects a woman with a serum that causes her to have a baby that becomes fully grown in an hour. That's the only thing that happens fast in this film. The monster created takes forever walking down a corridor, looped repeatedly, in a building that seems to have an aerobics studio and pool, a chemical plant and a garage, as well as the laboratory. People deliver their few lines s-l-o-w-l-y and then there's always a long pause before the next line. People don't react to being killed or seeing people being killed, or they don't react naturally. There's a detective that seems like a film noir archetype. It was shot on 16 mm and the sound is hard to describe - an electronic droning, foley sounds and the monster grunting all mesh. In one scene, the killer bumps the camera. The establishing shot in the aerobics studio is several minutes long. It's so bad that some of the badness has to have been deliberate, though it may have been thought to be artistic (or something).
