While 3-Dimensional Photography was a popular phenomena in cinematic history during the 50's (CREATURE FROM THE BLACK LAGOON, anyone?), its popularity soon fizzled out by the decade's end. One of them being that it was originally shot and released in theaters as a 3-D feature. PARASITE is noticeable for quite some aspects. Well, "future", is somewhat of a debatable topic here, since the movie is set in the year 1992 (while having been produced in 1982). And even though I've liked PARASITE ever since I saw it in my mid-teens, I think I'm not being biased if I say that watching this movie is a worthwhile effort and it's worthy of an honourable mention as an entry in B-movie horror history set in a post-apocalyptic future. It's no secret that I've always had a soft spot for Charles Band's pre-Full Moon stuff. Calling PARASITE a good movie is as arguable as whether or not Paris Hilton has had a breast enlargement.
