BOO!
Larry Cohen's string of 80's classics such as Q The Winged Serpent and The Stuff seemingly came to a close with this eighty percent turkey, the third and final film in his own It's Alive trilogy. Cohen teams up once again with his favorite actor Michael Moriarty which helps the proceedings much and funny man Gerrit Graham does his campy best as a lawyer in a courthouse scene. The courthouse scenes are more entertaining than the island stuff! Once the mechanical babies come in the film starts to meander and somehow the babies themselves are not realistic as should be. Karen Black is a bit miscast and underused. One of those "worth at least one watch" films - sage advice from an amateur movie critic heheh. 1.75 stars/2.75
