"Parasite is pure schlocky early-80s monster movie fun." - Stacie Ponder, FinalGirl.rocks

"This hokey but fun 1982 horror pix has excellent depth effects, in fact some of the best 'sticking stuff out of the screen into your face' effects I've yet seen." - Glenn Erickson, TrailersFromhell.com

Newly restored from a 4K scan of the original camera negative! 3-D restoration by the 3-D Film Archive! In the future, cities are ravaged by atomic fallout and controlled by evil corporations that have developed a mutant pair of flesh-eating parasites. One is feeding inside the man who created it. The other has escaped. Now with the help of a young woman left orphaned in the wasteland (Demi Moore), a scientist (Robert Glaudini, Wavelength) on the run must destroy these horrific creatures before they can reproduce. But the more a parasite feeds, the bigger it becomes. And the more it grows, the hungrier and angrier it gets.

Released to theaters as "The First Futuristic Monster Movie in 3-D," this sick shocker co-stars rocker Cherie Currie (Foxes), drive-in goddess Cheryl 'Rainbeaux' Smith (Caged Heat) and Broadway legend Vivian Blaine (Guys and Dolls). Directed by cult great Charles Band (Trancers, Blood Dolls) and featuring juicy creature effects by Academy-Award winner Stan Winston (The Terminator, Aliens).
