The Meateater (1979)
4/10
I hate to admit this...
8 July 2008
I watched this obscure, bizarre movie as a child and had months of nightmares after watching. I think my older brother had rented it with friends and I picked it up and put in the VCR and hit play after seeing the blood covered fork on the cover. The old man in the movie really freaked me out as a kid. I think what made it scarier to me at the time was the dated set and imagery. The styles of the seventies were scary enough, plus you throw in all of the loose ends and voilà, you have a traumatized child... I also recall the story leaving me confused, which compounded the whole effect.

I haven't seen this film in about twenty five years, but I am not surprised this many people have commented on it. I recall that it was truly bizarre and decided to look it up today.
