Beneath the streets of New York city there are hundreds of miles of subterranean tunnels unfit for anything human...until now. Something horrible is loose in the sewers of Manhattan and the city's homeless have begun to mutate into 'Cannibalistic Humanoid Underground Dwellers'. They are C.H.U.D. - mutated by radiation, hungry and headed for the streets!A city with mutated homeless that take locals into the sewers and then eat them? Count me in.
C.H.U.D. has its gore scenes, but the only thing about this movie is that you don't actually see any C.H.U.D. until the middle of the film. I think you see more mangled body parts than C.H.U.D. The times when you do see them, they look frightening.
You just gotta love low-budget horror flicks.
The movie was filmed above and below the streets of New York City, so the scenes where the actors are in the sewers, are actually real. [I could smell them already!]
Watch this movie if you have the time. Government cover-ups, mutated homeless, and a bit of gore... sounds like a good B-monster movie to me.
