Today we’re heading into the woods for a movie that answers the question nobody was asking: What if ticks weren’t disgusting ENOUGH?
Today’s movie is TICKS, the 1993 creature feature about a group of teenagers who head into the wilderness and discover that the local tick population has gotten a little… out of hand.
And by “out of hand,” I mean GIANT MUTANT BLOOD-SUCKING NIGHTMARES.
TICKS is exactly the kind of early-’90s horror movie I have a soft spot for. It’s ridiculous, gross, surprisingly entertaining, and loaded with the kind of wonderfully gooey practical creature effects that make movies like this so much fun. Nobody involved seems to think they’re making Shakespeare. They know we came to see enormous mutant ticks attack people, and by God, they give us enormous mutant ticks attacking people.
Is it sophisticated? Absolutely not.
Did I have a good time? Absolutely YES.
So grab the bug spray, check yourself for parasites, and join me as we take a look at TICKS (1993) and determine whether this gloriously slimy little creature feature deserves a spot in your Halloween movie marathon.
And that is why you should make TICKS one of your 31 Spooky Movies of Halloween!
