Written by Don Mancini (Child's Play), with an appearance by Jeffrey Combs (Reanimator), Cellar Dweller is a fun little comic book-themed creature feature that makes for a great late night watch. While it never exactly reaches greatness, the film's enjoyable cast, well-done gory effects, awesome creature design, isolated setting, strong art direction, and unique plot come together to form a solid and well-paced monster movie that offers up a handful of good kills accompanied by a solid soundtrack.
Now make no mistake, this is very much a "cheap" B-movie, and the ending is still a bit of a head-scratcher after multiple viewings... but nonetheless, Cellar Dweller is worthy of a viewing by anyone who considers themselves a fan of low-budget horror, especially with the iconic names attached. Not the best movie I have in my collection, but one that deserves to be there regardless!
