Description
Something's invading New York. Something terrifying. Something you've never seen before! It’s the rubber that rubs you out! H.R. Giger renders an incredible universe for director Martin Walz' explosive action sequences in this big budget favorite with lavish production values and a wicked, visionary sense of humor. Safe sex just got a lot more dangerous in this outrageous horror/noir/comedy. A college professor, Mr. Smirnoff (Ralf Wolter) lures an attractive female student, who is willing to do just about anything to improve her grade, to New York's Hotel Quickie, where he avails himself of one of the free condoms provided by the management. However, the prophylactic in question has sprouted teeth and has a taste for blood, and before long, the prof is suddenly missing his member. Assigned to investigate this strange case is detective Luigi Mackeroni (Udo Samel), a detective with something hidden in his closet. When Luigi and a prostitute take a room at the Hotel Quickie for some fun and games, the detective himself is attacked by the carnivorous rubber. Now much better acquainted with his new nemesis, Luigi has to take his revenge on the killer condom, while trying to brush off the advances of burly transvestite Babette (Leonard Lansink). Killer Condom, based on a comic book by German cartoonist Ralf Koenig, features special effects by bad-boy german auteur Jorg Buttgereit (Nekromantic, Schramm) and this uncut DVD comes fully loaded with a director’s commentary, Tour of Troma Studios, special public service announcements and the Troma Intelligence Test II!Amazon.com
If you can get past cheap special effects and New Yorkers suddenly spouting German, this bizarre black comedy horror spoof is an aggressively trashy hoot. There's a ravenous prophylactic taking a bite out of the Big Apple, and it's up to slovenly, tough-as-nails NYPD detective Udo Samel (resembling a skid row Bob Hoskins) to protect mankind from this sinister threat. Shot in bleeding, oversaturated color on the streets of New York City with an all-German cast, director Martin Walz fills his film with in-your-face sleaziness and references to everything from The Godfather to Psycho to Attack of the Killer Tomatoes. The mad mix of clichés swirl detective films, monster movies, cop dramas, and mad-scientist conspiracies into a bizarre midnight movie genre soup. Samel's lecherous, well-endowed, hard-boiled detective wears his gay pride like a dare. His insatiable appetite for rent boys and young hunks may affront some viewers, but the chain-smoking tough guy in the rumpled trenchcoat makes a great, unapologetic icon for the '90s. The snaggle-toothed condoms, which look like a cross between Audrey II from Little Shop of Horrors and a sock puppet with teeth, were created by Germany's bad boy of horror, Jorge Buttgereit (Nekromantic). --Sean Axmaker
