Fringes of Horror: Woman of Mud (2000)

The Rating System

All opinions are my own. We are all different. What I may think is great, you may this terrible. Don't let my opinios stop you from exploring the vast world of horror in all media.

~Mind Blowing: Search for this movie immediately. It can only be described as pure greatness and possible an instant classic.

~So Good: Highly recommended because for one reason or another it stands out above the usual fair. Put the movie on your radar as it wont disappoint.

~In the Middle: The movie is a nothing special, average affair. It may entertain in the short term but it will be easily forgettable in the long haul.

~Warning: This movie is a cliched driven slop of familiar territory. Only watch if you're really of fan of this type of material.

~Steaming Pile: The movie is absolute garbage, a complete bore, and not worth the time or effort.

Woman of Mud (2000)

Starring: Klaudia Koronel, Carlos Morales
Director: Rico Marie Ilardo

Premise:
A college student goes off to his uncle remote house in the jungle in attempts to write his first novel. He ends up finding a woman that emerges from a giant fruit who may not be as she appears either.

My Take:
A hot, naked woman covered in entrails spawns from a fruit and the first thing I would do is have sex with her. Why not... at least that's what the main characters does. Then it's all downhill from there as she's actually some sort of monster. My wife, who is Filipina, calls this a "sexy movie" as there are a couple of sex scenes and some boobs. Nothing too risque by American standards, but one doesn't see a lot of nudity in the Philippines cinema. It's worth a look if you are looking to round out your world view of horror movies.

Rating: In the middle
