The following review appeared in The Rocky Mountain Bullhorn in Northern Colorado:


Slime City
Starring Robert Sabin, Mary Huner
Directed by Gregory Lamberson
Retro Shock-O-Rama
Oldie But Slimy from 1989


It's a tale as old as time: a young man moves into an apartment populated by Dead Can Dance fans, eats some bright blue yogurt, drinks some green wine, is seduced by a reincarnated hooker and wakes up to find himself secreting translucent slime in copious amounts from every pore on his body. The goop not only makes his sheets all sticky, it also gives him the uncontrollable urge for blood. Why? There's a cult in the building that are using Robert to transubstantiate the spirit of their long dead leader, of course. It's truly a virtual community of slime—a Slime City, if you will.

Director Greg Lambertson's long-unavailable cult epic is more fun that scary, covering everything it touches in a comical putrescence that is a blast to watch, rating right up there with Basket Case and Street Trash as a low-budget horror masterpiece that's just begging to be rediscovered.
