Not even bad in a good way

just watch it!

Admirable film.

The best films of this genre always show a path and provide a takeaway for being a better person.

Going out for a vacation, a woman returns to a family-owned at a cabin in the woods and runs across a scientist chasing an aberrant form of gecko species with a taste for human flesh and try to survive against the creatures.This was a pretty pleasant and enjoyable creature feature. One of the best features is that there's a really interesting and imposing creature, which is presented a form of aberrant gecko species only to have been inundated with a voracious set of teeth that produce venom which is able to spit at victims as well. The creature's size, which is much bigger than a normal lizard is mixed with plenty of action that showcase this which makes for a really dangerous and unique creature. There's some more greatness from the film itself, as the location is the secluded cabin-in-the-woods which adds a great dimension to the film because of the raging thunderstorm. There's some great atmospheric scenes of them trying to walk around in the dark, as well as the dead trees instead of the usual vegetation give it a wonderfully eerie feel here. There's plenty of action in here as there's a huge amount of interactions here that are plain fun as nearly all of them feature the creature's chases around the cabin forcing them into some fun tactics against the creatures which are pretty chilling and quite fun. There's also the really great finale in the general store, which has plenty of action trying to keep the rapidly approaching creatures contained featuring some fun battle tactics in the aisles which gets some nice suspense as well into a fun, extended sequence that really works. Along with some nice gore and the really nice pacing here, these here manage to make it enjoyable enough to make up for really only one flaw to this one. This one is really only hurt by its really cheesy, rubber-looking creatures that aren't realistic, while other times they're obviously little puppets that move even less like a real creature and ruins the mystique of the creature. It's pretty much the only thing wrong with this one as the positives here are far more appealing and worthwhile.Rated R: Graphic Violence, Language, Brief Nudity and violence against animals.

Rather vicious rubber lizards attack Pamela Gidley and an annoyingly bad actor, biologist (Simon Bossell). Trapped in a cabin, with a blizzard raging outside and the cavorting beasties inside they wage a never ending battle with the creatures. That's it. I give it two out of 10 because the slimy lizard puppets are actually OK looking, and the snowy landscape is somewhat effective. The acting, script, and logic department is sorely lacking. This leaves little to do except squishing, shooting, and barbecuing lizards for an hour and a half. Totally unacceptable from almost every angle, "Aberration" is more like an abomination........ - MERK

The main problem with this movie isn't the plot. It's the fact that the director obviously thinks all men like to watch unrealistic movies showing model-looking females acting like buff men. The other problem is that the heroine never gets any of her hair out of place, while all the guys are either totally buffoons or wimps who are scared of looking under a bed. The plot is actually good. However, the director's insistence that a gun-wielding woman who is able to take on people in a fight who are twice her size, makes the plot bizarre. The viewer continually finds himself trying to explain the plausibility of all the unrealistic feats done by the heroine instead of concentrating on the plot. For those that want some realistic movies, avoid this turkey like the plague!

First of all; the rating scale is difficult to use as I recommend the movie (who doesn't love campy, tongue-in-cheek low budget scifi/horror; if you're reading this you do!). I use the scale for the quality of scenes not the movie whole. The acting was OK and at times rather bad. There were some cool aspects and the gore was quite good even though scifi hacked it. Pamela Gidley i've always loved! The lizards looked like a cross between older godzilla movies with a hint of digital animation at times. I loved the setting (cabin in the woods) and the snow. A hot snow bunny always helps. All in all it's definitely worth a rent.
