Slither 2006
Slither was theatrically released in the United States and Canada on March 31, 2006, by Universal Pictures and TVA Films respectively. The film received generally positive reviews from critics, who deemed it "funny" and "creepy", while praising its premise, B-movie conventions, Gunn's direction, script and the performances of the cast, and has since become a cult film.[4][5] However, it was a box office failure, grossing only $12 million worldwide against a $15 million budget.
Slither was released on regular DVD and on HD-DVD/DVD hybrid disc on October 24, 2006.[13] The HD version is presented in 1.85:1 widescreen encoded at 1080p and Dolby Digital-Plus 5.1 surround. In addition to the film, the DVD contains two making-of documentaries, one being solely dedicated to the visual effects. The DVD also contains deleted and extended scenes, a blooper reel, visual effects progressions, a set tour with Fillion, and an audio commentary by Gunn and Fillion. Also included are featurettes outlining how to make edible blood, and Lloyd Kaufman's documentary discussing his day on set, and the shooting of his one line (which was eventually cut from the film). Finally, there is an added bonus entitled "Who Is Bill Pardy?" which is a joke feature made by Gunn with the sole purpose of roasting Fillion, and was shown at the film's wrap party.[14]
Slither was "a box office flop",[5] failing to recoup its production budget[16] following its debut in the United States and Canada on March 31, 2006 in 1,945 theaters. In its opening weekend, the film grossed $3,880,270 and ranked #8 at the U.S. and Canadian box office.[5] Slither grossed $7,802,450 in its theatrical run in the United States and Canada.[17] Slither also under-performed in France, grossing $236,261 from 150 screens.[18] The film grossed $5,032,486 as of February 6, 2008 in territories outside the United States and Canada for a worldwide gross of $12,834,936.[17] Its box office performance was substantially less than its total budget of $29.5 million, including marketing costs;[5] the production budget taking up about $15 million of the total.[16]
The movie was featured in the April 14, 2006 issue of Entertainment Weekly as #1 on "The Must List"; "Ten Things We Love This Week".[22] Guest critic Michael Phillips named Slither his DVD pick of the week on the television show Ebert & Roeper.[citation needed] Slither was listed as one of the "Top 25 DVDs of the Year" by Peter Travers in Rolling Stone magazine.[23]
Slither picked up the 2006 Fangoria "Chainsaw Award" for the Highest Body Count, and garnered nominations in the categories of Relationship From Hell, Dude You Don't Wanna Mess With, and Looks That Kill.[25] Additionally, the horror magazine Rue Morgue named Slither the "Best Feature Film of the Year".[26]

It is difficult to give away too much of the plot; you already know from the ads that the slithering crawling things leap down the throats of their victims, turning them into beings who still have their human memories but also develop an appetite for raw meat. From their chests spring suction tentacles to suck up your innards. How they reproduce is not a pretty sight. 041b061a72
