Parasite Movie Review

A small town is beset by gross parasites that infest human hosts. This effort is notable today mostly as an early screen credit for a young Demi Moore. Genuinely revolting stuff about sluglike critters invading human bodies is undone by budgetary limitations and a dark, dirty look. In 3-D, no less, during the technique's brief return in the early ‘80s.
