The performances transcend the film's tropes, grounding it in characters that feel more complete than this subgenre often produces.

Exactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.

This is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.

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.

I don't know what to think or expect from a title like this, but as long as you don't expect any greatness or high level film making then you should be okay and you might even find this strange weird looking movie quite enjoyable as long as you lower your expectations. Even from the opening with a hunter running through the woods and then realising that he's missing his arm, was just hilariously stupid and that really sets the tone of what's to come.Fast forward a few years later and the plot is that a suburban husband is sleeping with half of the bored housewives of the local neighbourhood and unknowingly spreading a sexually transmitted virus to the women, turning them into hungry cannibals who first start to eat their own children and then go on a rampage throughout the quiet town, and then it's up to the remaining teens to try and stop them and the local doctor to find a cure before it's too late.This is just dipped in pure cheese through and through, and the film itself looks bleak and rather ugly. The acting of course is as bad as the direction and this movie is in dire need of funding looking at those effects or lack of. But honestly this is trashy fun and despite none of the cast being able to act, they were still okay and the teens look about late 20's early 30's and one of the girls when she stood next to her mother they looked the same age, which was hilarious and there is a bit of action in this flick that does keep things moving. It's a great idea and does have a pretty good strong start to it, but does lose steam a bit in the middle and the awful dialogue was a hoot, especially when two of the mutated mothers stop and have a conversation. But on the whole it does feel lifeless and lazy.All in all "Flesh Eating Mothers" has somewhat of potential but doesn't have the intelligence to become a cult classic and falls short in almost all areas, but it's an okay bit of cheese just not something that I would return to in the future.

Man, this movie is bad! So bad that it is pretty funny to watch. Bad acting, bad dialog. I just finished watching it and I have to say that I was just shaking my head in disbelief at the whole entire mess. Don't get me wrong, I love movies like this. And believe it or not, it's not the worst one I've ever seen. Hence, only a score of two stars instead of one. My dad and I use to rent movies based on the poor reviews and silly titles. I hope some of the actors went on to bigger and better things and put this one behind them. Far, far behind them! -SPOILERS!!- Is it just me or by the end of the movie did some the mothers look a little bit like the Joker with the stretched out mouths?

This is a fine example of bad acting and effects taken to just the right extreme to make for a cult classic! There's one bad line after another to make you chuckle and of course plenty of scenes that make you say "What the heck was that?" or "Wait a minute...what just happened?". The plot is good...a sexually transmitted disease is spread around town by the local gigolo which is only effective in women who have had children. The result? Biddies that bite! This little gem leaves very little to the imagination arms are chewed off, babies are eaten, and penises are devoured! A lot of fun...great to watch while you're drinking!

No real spoilers, just mention of two plot events.Flesh eating mothers. What can one say about a film that starts off terrible and actually gets worse from there? IT'S GREAT!!! Now seriously, what does one really expect from a movie with this title, it has to be bad. Bad acting, bad direction (I take that back, there's no direction), and the most laugh out loud special effects and sound effects ever to grace the silver screen. **I have a piece of trivia about the movie. Several reviews mention the park scene where the kids crack up laughing then they talk about their mothers eating their baby brother. Turns out that was the best take they could get. The actors knew they were in a crappy movie and just could not get through the dialog without laughing. :) ** The bad film work, sound, acting, effects (including the animated virus under a microscope that put pacman to shame), and premise of the film makes it a must for anyone who loves terrible movies. I know you are out there all you z grade movie fans, so rent this one and you won't be disappointed. Well you will be disappointed, but that's the whole point :)
