The Abomination Trailers

A mother obsessed with mind-altering televangelism consequently vomits a pulsating growth that slithers down the throat of her son during the night. Upon spewing the parasite, the son is driven by an uncontrollable force to murder and feed corpses to the now-multiple-toothed monsters manifesting throughout the house. This gory, shot-on-Super-8 regional rarity is a micro-budget salute to H.G. Lewis and H.P. Lovecraft. — Evan Husney, Drafthouse Films

Ameriatch One of the best films i have seen
SincereFinest disgusting, overrated, pointless
Sameer Callahan It really made me laugh, but for some moments I was tearing up because I could relate so much.
Jenni Devyn Worth seeing just to witness how winsome it is.
Master Cultist Ultra low budget horror, which is as twisted as it is cheap. The plot is thus - weird looking chap still lives with his Mom. His Mom has some form of cancer. One day, his Mom vomits up the cancer, and it turns out to be some form of parasitical alien lifeform, that now requires fresh human flesh and blood in order to grow. Man sticks the living tumour in a cupboard in the kitchen, and goes out for the meat. And that's it!!! Thing is, as cheap and nasty as it is, I loved it. It's got such a sleazy feel to it, though there is no nudity it must be pointed out, that this was a spine tingling pleasure. Add in the fact that the opening three minutes or so is a montage of all of the moments of gore you are about to witness, and this is a real hoot.
Coventry I feel they should have honored this movie which a much more appealing title…Something like "The touching tale of a boy and his tumor", for example…or maybe even "The barf that ate my friends and family"! Either way you look at it, this has got to be one of the sickest and most demented movies someone ever thought up! Following the good old 80's splatter rules, "The Abomination" totally ignores atmosphere and substance, going straight for an immeasurable amount of gore. The opening sequence alone already contains more blood and guts than a hundred other horror films and easily offended people will immediately stop watching. This vicious intro is a compilation of the film' grossest moments and for some incomprehensible reason it completely spoils the rest of the movie before it even properly begun. "The Abomination" introduces us to a family of white trash in the wastelands of America. An adolescent boy with a dead end job and a mother whose obsessed by a TV-guru. One day, mommy pukes out a tumor and it immediately takes possession of the boy. The constantly growing tumor forces the boy to kill people and serve their bodies as lunch! Call me insane but I somewhat like basic idea… It's more or less a very perverted update of the "Little Shop of Horrors" premise, directed by Roger Corman in 1960. The budget is extremely low and the cast is a bunch of amateur hillbillies with nothing better to do. In case your horror-standards are low, this is perfect gory entertainment. We're talking axes, chainsaws, slit throats, severed limbs, pitchfork-killings and entire buckets of human guts (literally). In the film's most redundant sequence, we witness how the infamous TV-guru takes a dump in his office toilet…. Talking about tastelessness! One piece of advice: this movie goes well with beer. Loads and loads of beer….and vomit bags.
johan_norberg I have seen a lot of movies, but this is definitely the worst without a doubt. DO NOT WATCH THIS MOVIE. It begins with a quick summary of all things that will happen in the movie(then why keep watching?) and a lot of scenes that are duplicated over and over again. And besides that we have a ULTRA weak story, REALLY BAD music that will never go out of your head(I saw this movie a year ago, only one time). Then we have several scenes(OF A HORSE!!!) that has nothing to do with the story at all. And at last there's a scene in which a cat are forced into a toilet with a massive amount of violence... horrible This movie is a abomination itself and IS NOT RECOMMENDED FOR ANYONE.....AND I MEAN IT. It has passed a year since a saw it, and still I'm getting horrible flashbacks...at any time!You should not call this a movie...instead torture of worst kind invented on earth.You cannot describe how awful this movie is... it's an experience...and you should classify it as unhealthy.I give it 1 out of 10, but if it was possible I would give it minus 10000
Baron_21 There is NO reason to see this film. Not only are the effects super cheesy, but the acting is horrible, the 'suspenseful' parts are lame, and the film has little to no continuity. The Abomination makes 'Bloody New Year' look like a Scorsese film. I recommend watching paint dry over this movie.
