10 Films You Probably Shouldn't Watch On A First Date

6. Humanoids From The Deep (1980)

It€™s the Carter era, so pessimism is understandably rife, especially in the Californian fishing village of Noyo, where livelihoods are threatened by dwindling fish stocks. As is standard procedure, the local salmon cannery hires a marine biologist to treat the fish with an experimental growth hormone that has the unfortunate side effect of producing monsters that wade ashore with the unspeakable on their minds. Which, if you think about it, was bound to happen. When you genetically engineer salmon to grow faster and develop larger brains, naturally they€™re going to turn into a bunch of guys in rubber costumes who€™ll invade your town, kill your dogs and rape your daughter so she can give birth to something with gills in the final scene. Produced by Roger Corman, Humanoids is way trashier than anything you€™ve ever watched on the SyFy Channel. It€™s the quintessential sleazefest, never missing an opportunity to have its female characters model swimwear, go skinny-dipping or be abducted by rubber-suited monsters for breeding purposes, but if you think there€™s little more to the proceedings than tit shots, you€™re sadly mistaken. There€™s bloodletting also.
