Never released theatrically, this undistinguished monster film is set in the Florida swamps where an unusual meteor shower has given birth to a group of mutant youngsters who were in the wrong place at the wrong time. The youngsters become horribly disfigured and are overtaken by an uncontrollable need for specific human flesh in order to survive. The sheriff (Buster Crabbe in his last movie role) offers a reward for the "alligators" that are mauling people to death, as a journalist and a game warden pitch to the truth and head to a confrontation with the mutants. ~ Eleanor Mannikka, Rovi

I really like Fred Ray's movies... This one, his first film shot on 16mm with a shoestring budget, is one you can skip... I really tried to like it, but unlike other low-budget horror cheapies (Dead Next Door, Evil Dead) there is really nothing redeeming about the film. It doesn't even fit into the "so bad it's good" category... It's just downright bad and boring... The director's commentary was about the only interesting thing in the whole movie.

This movie was a low budget and that's not a problem, there are many low budget films that are great. What I didn't like about it is how the story line didn't really keep me interested as well as the acting.
