First-rate wisdom in second-rate movies __ "Slither"

The plot is simple: Grant is a rich half-old man who married a poor girl, Starla. He loves her deeply, but she doesn't care much. . Even refuse (and often refuse!) to do his duty at night. . (It’s not that I said you, this is the girl’s fault. Grant has money, love and desire but not ED. Where can I find a man like this?) Well, old couples and young wives make trouble. .
Sure enough, Grant was rejected again one night. . . .
Depressed Grant = "Looking for drunkenness in a bar = "Woman = "Weird bugs from alien planets = "Grant is born in an alien form = "Doing all around =" The villagers encircle and suppress =" Combat (True and Vulgar) = "The alien is collapsed by the male sheriff, the zombies are ruined, and the humans win.
This movie is really not surprisingly creative, and Cast is also weak:
Nathan Fillion (not seen, second-rate actor?), Elizabeth Banks (a little bit like Naomi Watts, and a bit like a blonde girl from Hitchcock), only that Mayor Jack is worth noting, the swear word is not swearing, black, very rock and roll, and finally he begged the male sheriff to get rid of himself as if he still had a conscience.

But as the director and screenwriter James Gunn said in the interview, he only hopes to reproduce the comedy and horror effects of the horror films of the 1980s, so he can see his tribute to many classic horror films in this film, Fly /Tremors / A nightmare on Elm Street /The thing /An American Werewolf in London /The Evil Dead /Alien /Holloween, etc.
such as the mayor’s name Jack MacReady comes from RJ Macready of; All the policemen’s last names are those of the great director (this...this...who will notice); Brundle's Meat, the shop where Grant buys meat, comes from Seth Brundle in The Fly. . .
Regarding this matter, the directors love to do it and understand it very well. But this tribute to the name alone seems a bit pediatric.

I think it’s interesting that there are a few deleted fragments in the footage of this film:
Ø A scene where Grant got angry with the secretary while working. This paragraph might have been meant to show his bad temper. But it may be revealed that Grant is not so rich, he still has to go to work, useless! delete!
Ø After being invaded by alien worms, Grant went to the butcher shop to buy meat. He first ordered eight boxes of pork, then changed to 14 boxes, and then changed to buy all the meat, including chicken and boneless meat. . . The most funny thing is that he stared at the clerk for a moment and said: "You are meat.." Hahaha (I deleted it)
Ø After Grant bought the meat, he did The meat filing at home. It was very black and humorous. He took the file cabinet to hide the meat, and the folder was marked with a thick pen: Baloney, Pastrami, Olive Loaf, Lamb, Pork, Roast Beef, Salami, Veal is
really a professional "alien" (this paragraph has also been deleted What?)

Lesson 1: (For women) Women should not refuse men’s favors casually, they will send their husbands to the alien insects.
Experience 1.5: (for a woman) Even if you marry a rich husband, don't forget to bludgeon Xiaobaisian in time and keep a back hand. Because your husband may become a bunch of scary stuff you don't recognize at any time.
Lesson 2: (for men) If you become an alien, don't believe a woman who tells you that she still loves you. She will send a sharp knife to your face without hesitation in the next second.
Lesson 3: (for men) If you suspect that your young wife is ambiguous with that little white face, trust your instincts. Kill you as soon as possible. Sooner or later, that little white face will blow you up with a gas tank.

When a man looks at you affectionately and listens to the songs he sings for you, won't you be moved? Even if he is an alien.
Girl, you're at The Every Woman in Me to world

Girl, you're at The Every Woman in Me to world
by You're Everything the I need, you're Everything to Me
movie with It’s "every woman in the world" by Air Supply, great song.
Every night seems dinner and wine, Saturday girls
I was never in love, never had the time
In my hustle and hurry world
Laughing myself to sleep, waking up lonely
I needed someone to hold me, ohhhh
