Storyline

Escaped serial killer Jack Schmidt is on the run from the police and FBI after escaping from jail. They corner him and gun him down in a sewer tunnel, where he falls into a pool of chemicals dumped by the company who created it, Dutech. The combination of feces and this chemical transforms him into a half human, half feces creature, who goes on a killing rampage. And it's up to a group of local law enforcers to stop him.

Sheriff Duncan: So how's about that chili cook-off? Word has it you're a shoo-in for first place this year.
Waitress: Flattery will get you everywhere, Tom. I hear Cajun Charlie's whipping up a batch of his ass-kicking, bowel-bomber con carne.
Sheriff Duncan: Shit, Cajun Charlie ain't got nothin' on you, honey.
Waitress: You old sweet-talker, how about taking a dozen glazed old-fashioned when you go? I know Dan and Rick like 'em.

User Reviews

It's hard to believe...

Really hard to believe that someone wouldn't like this movie. I guess these are the same folks that consider "Full House" or "Family Matters" to be the end-all of entertainment. If, however, you have a shred of intelligence or a sense of humor, I think you'll find Monsturd to be a fairly enjoyable movie-going experience. Every bit of this movie exudes a quality that you just do not see in SOV flicks. It's a horror comedy with comedy that is actually funny! Watch the classic vomiting scene or the dopehead hand-puppet sequences and come back to tell me whether or not I'm wrong. Also great is the story and methods behind the scenes of Monsturd. Looking forward to the next movie!
