I actually enjoyed the first “Critters” to my surprise as it did what it set out to do and made a decent parody of sci-fi movies and horror films but “Critters 2” and “Critters 3” were just terrible but now we get dragged down into the next degree of awfulness by the indisputably terrible “Critters 4”.

In “Critters 4”, bounty hunter Charlie McFadden (Don Keith Opper “Critters 2”, “Android”) after being ordered by some intergalactic council loads the last two eggs of the dreaded monsters into a space pod but also gets stuck inside and wakes up in 2045 on a spaceship. The monsters break loose and start killing the crew one by one so now Charlie must exterminate them by himself but then his old friend Ug (Terrence Mann “Critters”), who is now a counsellor orders him to salvage the remaining eggs or the crew will be killed.

The acting in this movie is just terrible. There isn’t one person that I thought was vaguely okay and they’re not even so bad they’re funny they’re just so bad they’re rubbish. The creatures this time around aren’t funny either (not that they have been since the first film and even then they weren’t anything superb). The puppetry for them in this film is just awful.

There isn’t one moment in this film that is better than absolutely awful. The production is bad, the acting is bad, the characters are boring, the plot is boring and the film is just poor as a whole. I didn’t even mildly chuckle at how bad the film was (like I did with the last two) because this one is taken to the next degree of awfulness and all the humour (even if it had been rubbish like in the last two) was completely gone from the franchise now as there are virtually no jokes in this movie whatsoever. From beginning to end “Critters 4” is one of the blandest movies I’ve ever seen and it is just so unentertaining.
