Hilarious Horror
Added 8/23/2009
The movie had all the classic horror and gore from movies like Texas Chainsaw Massacre. I loved the interaction between the two guys. It was hilarious. The chase scenes were a riot! I would highly recommend this movie to anyone. I look forward to adding it to my DVD collection. Horror and hilarity. A great combination.

Pretty cool
Added 5/19/2009
I saw this movie on TV. It was pretty cool. It was better than I thought it would be. The monster truck is really cool and the driver is the most disgusting thing I've seen in a while. There's a pretty cool twist in the plot that is revealed later in the movie. It's worth a view for sure.

Finally a reason for Rednecks to fear monster trucks
Added 5/18/2009
If you are on the fence about a low budget horror and happen to read a tagline that says "On this highway the roadkill is HUMAN," you know you have found yourself a winner. Monster Man is one of those films we've seen bits and pieces of the years but never sat down to watch from tap to buzzer until now. A four star rating for the film may seem a little generous to some horror fans, but for us it's just right. State of mind is what this one is all about. If you go into it knowing what to expect you should have a decent time with some good laughs to follow.
We start off with two guys named Adam & Harley taking a road trip to the wedding of a girl they're obsessed with. While traveling they happen to pick up a very cute hitch-hiker by the name of Sarah and stop off at a local bar filled with amputee rednecks. After they thoroughly piss off the locals they hit the road again only to be terrorized by the Monster Man in his monster truck. The truck is like something out of Mad Max, hey dutch, and the driver is like something from another planet. He continues to appear and attempt to take them out while they barely escape. Finally they take matters into their own hands and try to kill the Monster Man before he kills then, and that's when things get really strange.
Overall a gorey, corny, comedy/horror that somehow seems to work just fine. Usually these comedy horror films are way overdone and lose any value about 20 minutes in but this one balanced it right. By no means is Monster Man a great film but it doesn't claim to be. If you go into it knowing what to expect it should be a fun watch for the right viewer.

Surprisingly not too bad at all...

I picked this up cheap and figured it'd be good for a few laughs. I was shocked when I noticed that it was actually gory, funny, creepy, and had a good plot and nice twist to it. I liked it!

Is there room for improvement? Yes.

I don't quite understand why they insist in a blend of horror and comedy movie, they just don't go together!I understand a little humor at the beggining of the film,just before the action starts,but when they over do it, it just dissipates or softens the suspense,and there is when it gets corny,if it wasn't for that, believe me,it would be a a lot better.The effects are ok and maybe the story too,overall...worth watching once.
