Another Childhood Memory Ruined

Swamp Thing
(1982)


I remember this being a much better movie than it was.  I can buy the formula transforming him, considering what went down, but the later explain of the formula enhancing your inner being was just preposterous even for the 80s.  I mean the Doc Holland was working on binding planet and animal cells.  How do you get a human opossum out of that?

The politician out for his own gain, throwing a party full of sycophants and prostitutes was spot on, though.  The party provided extra nudity.  In typical 80s fashion you got to see some naked, natural breastseses.  So far I have not been able to score another full-frontal male shot since Basket Case - and I'd rather forget that.  Damn it...too late.
