The Offspring - Meat is Murder!






Cannibals...who needs em? Certainly not the protagonists of The Offspring, a grimy cheap but in fairness entertainingly wacko horror flick based on some obscure novel. The aforementioned protagonists are a family of middle-class bad actors whose dull but adequate lives are made a bit more entertaining - and shorter - by a feral tribe of gut munching tribesmen who suddenly appear out the forest intent on some human meat to go.

Abysmal acting and cheap production values, plus a weird and random story, but also has some very harsh violence, an effectively sparse score consisting almost entirely of odd atonal sounds (probably took about 10 minutes to score to be fair) and an unsettling 70's style atmosphere. Plus its short, 78 minutes. Short, dumb and mean....like a special needs midget with a grudge.
