The Kindred (1987)

My rating 6/10

(click on images below for larger versions)

A scientist named Amanda Tells her son on her death bed that he has a brother he never knew about and he should go to her house and destroy everythng connected to her recent genetic experiments. When he goes with a small group of friends to the house they find out why she wanted everything erased.

A fun little monster movie that was a VHS staple back in the day. The creature effects are pretty good and there's some decent gore throughout. The acting is good and the cast do a decent job with what they have to work with. Rod Steiger, Amanda Pays & Julia Montgomery are fun to watch and even though it does get a little silly in places it's never less than entertaining!.

Avoid the American R rated version is it was cut to remove some of the more graphic effects. If you get it uncut though then you'll have fun with this late 80s gem. I did, and still do when I revisit it!.
