Summary: Siblings Mimi and Luke unwittingly resurrect an ancient alien overlord who was entombed on Earth millions of years ago after a failed attempt to destroy the universe. They nickname the evil creature Psycho Goreman (or PG for short) and use the magical amulet they discovered to force him to obey their childish whims.

They nickname the evil creature Psycho Goreman (or PG for short) and use the magical amulet they discovered to force him to obey their childish whims.

A delirious, disgusting and delightfully dark concoction, this low-budget movie is the latest throwback creation from Steven Kostanski (Manborg, The Void), whose artistic vision seems perma-stuck in the sugary-cereal haze of a Saturday morning circa 1989. Read full review

Psycho Goreman is a necessary explosion of ridiculous fun in a time when it’s needed most. Fans of practical effects and over-the-top horror-comedy will instantly fall in love. Read full review

The movie’s ability to flirt with the familiar and completely turn it on its head is what keeps Psycho Goreman so perversely fresh and fun throughout. It never once betrays its dark heart and continually trots out practical creature effects that tumble out of a GWAR nightmare that keep it engaging, unique, and deliciously deviant all the way to the closing credits.

As satire, Psycho Goreman is no “Planet Terror,” but it’s a droll enough schlock-in-quote-marks diversion, and part of its appeal is just how damn cheap it is. In the omni-tech era, it’s fun to see a filmmaker build an FX fantasy out of scraps, from the ground up. Read full review

Will good triumph over evil? Who cares, when there's this much chaotic creature fun to be had. Read full review

Yes, it gets gassed about a half hour in, with things not picking up much until the Big Finale. But those who like this sort of thing — horror played for laughs, a cult-movie by design — will surely find this the sort of thing they like. Read full review

Psycho Goreman isn’t clever or lively enough to be more than fitfully fun, especially given how much time is spent mocking generic, but painstakingly recreated plot contrivances. Read full review

Most fun I've had watching a movie in a very long time. Do yourself a favor and watch the movie, pig.

Yo the fact is, Steven Kostanski is the absolute man. This film rips so hard and yeah them hunky boys are real. Adam Brooks is the GOAT in this film tho.

This is a 10/10 if you know what you're getting into. It's just a funny, greatly made monster movie. If you're a fan of costumes/practical effects, you're going to be in for a treat.

A movie that doesn't take itself serious for a single second. It's stupid fun and that's by design. Now this won't be appealing to most people.

Psycho Goreman is basically a kids' show with gore and questionable moral lessons.

This movie is hilarious. If you're a fan of old 80s horror films or comedies this one is for you.

I really enjoyed this. As strange as it is I still thought it was very fun from start to finish. Super campy, very gory “PG” is like a very grown up version of “Power Rangers” crossed with “The Grim Adventures Of Billy & Mandy.” They take from the former so much that even it’s music isI really enjoyed this. As strange as it is I still thought it was very fun from start to finish. Super campy, very gory “PG” is like a very grown up version of “Power Rangers” crossed with “The Grim Adventures Of Billy & Mandy.” They take from the former so much that even it’s music is recreated with upbeat rock and high energy guitar solos for sections of the score. The practical effects won’t fool you, but they are simple, wonderful and very effective. If you are looking for a light horror flick that’s something fresh I’d definitely recommend it.… Expand

This movie is incredibly stupid. The plot is moronic. The costumes, set dressings and special effects are all horrible. It looks like it was made in the early 70s. So mindlessly stupid that I turned it off halfway through.
