We’re here with tidings of comfort and joy and globs of fake blood around the mouth, because it’s time for Feeders 2: Slay Bells!

With Mike Nelson, Kevin Murphy, Bill Corbett


Feeders, the extremely homemade alien attack schlockfest, warmed our hearts and melted our minds when we riffed it earlier this year. Everyone who saw it, and all the bloody alien destruction it brought, was left with one obvious question: did the Polonia Brothers make a Christmas-based sequel???

We're here with tidings of comfort and joy and globs of fake blood around the mouth, because it's time for Feeders 2: Slay Bells! The movie picks up right where the first one left off... except not really, because one of the actors is playing the same character he was in the first Feeders, while the rest are all playing different characters who nonetheless look exactly the same as they did in the first movie. Confused? Don't worry, they recap the first movie and re-use some footage from it, which really... doesn't clear things up at all. However, there are a LOT of scenes in basements, and the best angry boss character we've seen since Samurai Cop.

We don't want to give away too much, but we can tell you this: there are new Feeders puppets, somehow even cheaper than the puppets in the first one (those puppets are still around too, inexplicably). And if you ever wanted to see the Feeders take on Santa Claus and his reindeer - well, that's a very strange thing to want, and you should reflect on that a little - but you'll be very happy!

Get ready for the bloodiest holiday season since your dad gave your mom an exercise bike she didn't ask for, join Mike, Kevin and Bill for Feeders 2: Slay Bells!

So there is a bit to chew on here. First we need to remember that we are dealing with to a movie that isn't even a B movie. To add to that has anyone else looked this up on IMDB to realize that the Polonia brothers have a whole company that is still making movies?! The surviving brother was making them up to 2008.
I understand the idea of wanting to lower your budget by including stock footage from your first movie but wow did they overdo it here.
Oh and when they were promoting this saying that the aliens got cheaper looking they weren't kidding. They gave them articulation at the neck at the cost of size and everything else.
Is it me or did they not actually feed in this movie? Oh that's right they ate but didn't probe.
I'm still trying to absorb what the heck I just sat through. It's like watching a train wreck but not the interesting kind. On the flip side it wasn't boring because almost nothing happened. To be boring there has to be something to bore you. That wasn't even here.
This is odd on a level that even our wonderful little skateboarding alligator wasn't. It's its own thing and I have no idea what that is.
Fodder's just this guy, you know.
