How to Make a Monster ** (2001, Clea DuVall, Steven Culp, Tyler Mane, Jason Marsden, Karim Prince) – Classic Movie Review 4676

Tyler Mane, Jason Marsden, Karim Prince star as Hardcore, Bug and Sol, a trio of computer programmers who are promised a $1 million bonus in return for coming up with the scariest video-game bad guy ever.

But they get a whole lot more than they bargained for when a lightning strike causes a power surge that brings the evil video game Evilution to life and the Monster starts to hunt down its hapless developers.

Writer-director George Huang’s 2001 movie is a corny but creepy and fun sci-fi horror film, starring a well-cast Clea DuVall [Duvall], Steven Culp and Colleen Camp. James Sullivan plays the Monster and Julie Strain makes a cameo appearance as herself.

Remaking a 1958 original, it is the third in the Creature Features series of remakes produced by Stan Winston.
