Kattiera Nana I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.

Grimossfer Clever and entertaining enough to recommend even to members of the 1%

Married Baby Just intense enough to provide a much-needed diversion, just lightweight enough to make you forget about it soon after it’s over. It’s not exactly “good,” per se, but it does what it sets out to do in terms of putting us on edge, which makes it … successful?

Nicole I enjoyed watching this film and would recommend other to give it a try , (as I am) but this movie, although enjoyable to watch due to the better than average acting fails to add anything new to its storyline that is all too familiar to these types of movies.

Scarecrow-88 The body parts of Chinese labor workers "melded together" thanks in part to a witch's curse (one of the miner's wives was a witch), and this "vengeance spell" has created quite a "gold monster" (an accidental detonation caused a part inside the cave to collapse, not only pinning them inside but destroying them) that is set free when a couple of local yahoos decide to try and get gold deep within it. The mine had been closed for some time, but greedy Billy Butler (Michael Badalucco), allowed to deprive whatever resources might be waiting inside due to his horrible ancestors who owned it for generations, needs financial properties that could exist. When the monster (it emanates a mist-like, gold-colored odor that paralyzes victims before it tears them apart) goes on a killing spree, it will ultimately be left up to a deputy with panic attacks and bad nerves, Todd (Robert Belushi, son of James Belushi!), and a coroner, Theresa (Cathy Shim), a Chinese-American beauty who has been helping him cleanse himself of his issues with falling prey to the incoming stress, to stop it. Jennifer Ruben (Nightmare on Elm Street III) and Marion Ross (of Happy Days) have paycheck bits as a mine health inspector (who can be bought as is the case when Billy offers her gold in exchange for her silence in regards to several off-the-code issues with the mine) and cantankerous speeding old bitty respectively. Both are victims of the creature (which looks like a walking mouth with teeth; its appendages are heads adding to its misshapen grotesque appearance), while the sheriff, Tatum (Carl Savering), begins to realize that stopping it won't be easy. When Billy realizes the monster "bleeds gold", his greed overtakes his common sense, and he decides to try and trap it. Tatum wants it dead, and so Billy will make sure (thanks to handcuffs) he doesn't interfere in his insane plot to capture the creature for its gold blood. Meanwhile, Todd's voluptuous teen sis, Veronica (Evie Thompson), her best friend (and Theresa's sister), Tracy (Olivia Ku), and their boyfriends (one is the sheriff's son, of course) all decide to go up to the other side of the mine for some beer-drinking and necking, not expecting a couple of posse hunters (brought on to help the sheriff kill the creature) to hold them hostage, awaiting the creature.Badly edited monster mayhem, some variable effects sequences of the creature, and dumb characters fit perfectly with the kind of formula often found on the syfy channel. Todd is a fun character, with his debilitating condition that often requires him to use a sack for breathing while his sheriff boss makes fun of him and ridicules him. Lucille Soong also has a rather entertaining part as the Chinese mother of Theresa and Tracy, under the impression that the creature has awakened, but hoping she's wrong about her bad feelings. Her "language barrier" proves to be amusing when Todd realizes she isn't as limited as he was led to believe. She is key to understanding the creature's existence and back story. The back story, I must confess, intrigued me and its tragic components are perfect for the kind of creature that derives from a spell cast by someone with revenge on her heart. Too bad the film is too lo-fi and cheaply made to truly do anything remotely interesting with that back story. Good for a few laughs, but ultimately, Heebie Jeebies falls into the same category of many of its kin: it has lame characters, lame kills, and lame special effects. Butler is your real villain of the film, an unsavory lech with gold on the brain 24-7. His fate is a nice bookend to a film which shows a gold "spiritual mist" representing the souls of those trapped Chinese workers being freed…the absurdity of this whole film is amplified by such an ending.

Gabriel Teixeira Was this a SyFy Original? The production info doesn't mention, but this has Syfy written all over it: terrible acting, hilariously bad dialogue, weak plot, poorly developed characters and a godawful CGI monster. In truth, the monster is one of the messiest creatures I've ever seem. The design is already bad enough, but the awful CGI and the clumsy way it moves on-screen made me laugh way too much. It is a refreshment to see something besides the usual giant animal/hybrids, but c'mon!As often with SyFy pictures, this falls in the 'so bad it's funny' kind of film. The combination of SyFy's usual terrible dialogue/acting makes most of the scenes funny enough to be watchable, especially with the likable Robert Belushi and the delightful Cathy Shim. However, it's Michael Badalucco that steals the show with his over-the-top acting and cheesy one-liners.This little Z-movie (it still has a long way to go to become even a B one) is just your usual SyFy film: ambitious, somewhat likable in its badness, but overall you can easily find something better.

Roddenhyzer The premise: The inhabitants of a quiet little mining town experience some major heebie-jeebies, when a murderous monstrosity is awakened and rises from its grave in an old goldmine to go on a vengeful killing spree. My opinion: To be frank, this movie was exactly what I had expected it to be: A no-frills monster flick made on the cheap, just watchable enough to keep me somewhat entertained for 80 minutes. It even exceeded my expectations in some regards, given that many other Syfy Originals have much worse acting, far more annoying dialogue and worse pacing. This one went by really fast, had predominantly decent actors (with a few glaring exceptions, mind you) and, best of all, a really inventive monster. The "Heebie Jeebie" (it's not actually called that in the movie, but I think it should) is basically just this weird mess of decomposing flesh with limbs flopping all around and a gaping, uh, let's call it a "mouth" reaching all across its body. It's quite rare for a Syfy flick to have something visually interesting in it, so this grotesque, four-armed, multi-headed freakshow was a very welcome breath of fresh air. On the annoying side of things, however, there are a few bad performances, most notably by the protagonist's younger sister and her friend. I also thought that the movie could have done with a few less attempts at comedy, but again, I've seen this handled much worse in other Syfy productions. Oh, and the CGI is complete crap too. Goes without saying, though, doesn't it?In conclusion, general audiences might shrug this one off as cheap TV trash, but if you're a fan of light monster horror and you're fully aware of the generally low standards of Syfy Originals (which my rating of this movie is based on, by the way), then I'd definitely say you should give it a chance, if only for the bizarre creature. It might pleasantly surprise you.

GL84 After a haunted gold mine is reopened, it unleashes a terrifying creature trapped below that continues a rampage of vengeance against the town and forcing the local policeman and a holistic healer to find a way of bringing the rampage to a halt.This one turned out a lot better than expected and actually has a lot of good things going for it. One of the better elements is the fact that this one has a rather intriguing premise for it's monster in scaring them first before going for the kill, allowing the panic that follows to carry the suspense of the attack throughout before the main kill. Those are a lot of fun as well as there's a lot of brutality in the kills and has some real great bloodshed to go along with it, mainly because they're all done in live-action and up-close rather than lame CGI kills which would've been unrealistic. The creature looks scary enough and there's a couple really good action scenes in here that are pretty suspenseful, but it still has some problems in the creature's gold-devouring habits conflicting with it's mission of vengeance, a rather unsatisfying finale and far too much time goes by with it out killing people before they realize something is wrong, and only then they stumble upon the creature which doesn't make them look good. Still, it's a much better film than expected.Rated R: Graphic Violence, Language and underage drinking.
