Some people can get their friends to do anything. Consider Todd Sheets, director of the Zombie Bloodbath trilogy and this lesser known gem - he can get his friends to endure having pig intestines (or whatever it is) thrown on them for minutes at a time while he films it in an awesome heavy metal nerd attempt at gore. This story concerns a group of post high school teens who have just rented a house. One of them dresses just like my brother did in the 90's with a Dork Knob Ponytail and oversized sherbert colored shirt tucked in way too much. They unknowingly unleash the title monster, who looks more like a fat guy in some rags and a Goofa Man mask than anything, and it starts terrorizing everyone with power tools and saws. At one point, one of the heavy metal girls changes from one pair of acid wash jean shorts into another less gaudy pair only to climb a ladder before getting clobbered by the Goblin. I guess she didn't want pig intestines on her concert-goin' outfit. The teens decide to fight back and the lead guy looks right into the camera and says 'Were gonna fix the Goblin's engine!'. I wanted to punch that guy right through the screen at that point. They get a rototiller and chase the fat Goblin around with it before it turns the tables and chases them around with it just like a Scooby Doo episode. Then another heavy metal guy in a leather jacket and workout shorts shows up and snoops around. This wouldn't be a big deal but it goes on for a full 10 MINUTES before he gets goozled by the Goblin with a pair of grass clippers, all while some song goes on and on about evil never sleeping. It's not even to the part where the zombies show up yet. Goblin stinkin' rules.
