Official synopsis:
“On the trashy side of Camaroville, there’s a mob turf war going down, but the new gang in town ain’t content with merely controlling the local dope and sex trade.
They are also mixed up with dangerous black magic, intent on resurrecting hideous demon-gods who have waited centuries for the chance to eat all our souls and enslave mankind!
These blasphemous bad guys need stopping, and Jimmy Chevelle, agent of The Department of Supernatural Security, is just the cat to do the stopping. He hasn’t let the man keep him down, and he’s certainly not going to let some sinister shape-shifting suckas destroy the earth, and all of its foxy, foxy chicks, if HE can help it.
But can he stop the gangster cult’s evil plans in time? Get ready for a freaky, funky thrill ride with demonic pimps, kung fu super foxes and terrible sanity-shattering extraterrestrial horrors from beyond space and time!”
Reviews:
“The creatures themselves are well designed if not always flawlessly rendered. They are creepy enough and close enough to Lovecraft’s ideas to be effective. The gore effects tend to be a bit uneven, but there are plenty of scenes of creatures spewing acidic substances across strip clubs, (a good bit of this film takes place in strip clubs and there are a lot of boobs on display)…” Beneath the Underground
” …what Badass Monster Killer lacks in budget in more than makes up for in inventiveness. While the monsters are a little rough, the designs are killer and the compositing is actually quite good given the film’s financial limitations. The same can be said for the production design, which is more Cool World than Sin City, with its curving buildings, multicolored sky, and abundant use of neon signs.” Dog’s Movie House
“In addition to the look of the film, you’ll probably dig some of the punchlines, as there’s good comedy tucked in the folds of the film, and there are a couple of characters that prove pretty memorable […] It’s absolutely crammed full of insane vocal exchanges, copious amounts of nudity and some goofy monster getups.” Horrorfreak News
