He rents an apartment from a seemingly sweet old Lizzie to try to sway his girlfriend Lori into ‘sleeping’ over. Roman and Nicole, the building’s other two youth residents take more than a healthy interest in our boy. Nicole practically says ‘Come up and plow me sometime’ and Roman has him over for green pudding and haunted Crème de Methe. Roman explains the goo is Himalayan yogurt made by Lizzie and the wine is made by her dead alchemist father Zachary. Staggering back to his apartment, Alex runs into Nicole. Then they take off their pants and run into each other a few more times. Alex wakes up the next morning covered in slime or possibly melting. He decides to go out for tea and murders a hobo. Before the hobo’s blood is dry, Alex is back to normal. Roman brings by some more goo and Alex hoovers it up. Afterwards, he meets Lori’s parents and ruins dinner with the revelation that he no longer wants to move in with him. He starts to get slimy again and slashes up a prostitute. Finally getting fed up with the slime cycle, Alex confronts Lizzie and Nicole. They reveal he is being fed an elixir and ectoplasmic primer to allow dear, dead dad, Zachary to take over his body. The rest of Zach’s former cult have taken up residence in Roman, Nicole and neighbor Ruby. Alex swears off the junk, reconciles with Lori and they have sex. Unfortunately, Zachary’s hostile takeover is nearly complete and he attacks Lori. Despite no longer being a virgin, Lori hacks Alex into squirmy little bits and saves herself. After the police investigation, Ruby and Lizzie are attempting to rent Alex’s old place to the detective on the case..
Plot: A student moves into a run-down building in New York City. His bizarre neighbors make a concoction in their apartment they call wine, but when he takes some of it, he turns into a deformed, murderous monster.

Bright Slime, Gooey City
I agree the numerous comparisons with “Street Trash” are very justified, but personally I think “Slime City” is a far more interesting and ‘better’ film because the characters in this film are at least sympathetic and the overall elaboration is definitely more appealing than “Street Trash”, which is – in my humble opinion – a hideous and nearly unwatchable production. At least “Slime City” benefices from a much more pleasant & cheerful atmosphere, greatly inspiring music and the light-headed direction by Greg Lamberson! This is a terribly poor and laughably inept film, of course, but it certainly doesn’t fail to entertain fans of cheap ‘n cheesy 80’s smut. The camera-work and editing are rudimentary and very amateurish, but the gore effects are incredibly grotesque and the storyline is too demented for words. The promising young painter Alex moves into an old apartment building, unaware that the other tenants are reincarnated disciples of a Satan-worshiping alchemist who committed suicide in the building’s basement. Through eating bright-colored pudding, drinking vaporous wine and enjoying sexual contact with the luscious neighbor, Alex mutates into a sticky monster who kills homeless guys, prostitutes and ghetto hoodlums. His only hope for rescue lies in the hands of his virgin girlfriend Nicole, but she loves Alex too much to ever hurt him. “Slime City” surpasses the average ‘so-bad-it’s-good’ 80’s horror film; it’s a genuine trash and crap FEAST! We’re talking characters (like the hilarious prostitute) that patiently wait around for monstrous Alex to kill them, obtrusive spiritual media that pop up unasked and out of nowhere, incompetent police detectives that couldn’t even prevent a crime if it happened right under their noses and body parts that continue to function after being separated from the torso. The climax is particularly outrageous (in a gooey way) and over-the-top hilarious. The acting performances are abominable, but you wouldn’t expect it any other way, the whole thing is simply too insane to feature any tension and the vintage 80’s soundtrack is too fabulous for words. If you like Troma films, Frank Hennenlotter’s Indie-flicks and other no-budget crap from the 80’s, “Slime City” is the ideal purchase for you. It would be a crime against good taste to rate this movie any more than 5 out of 10, but this is one of those times you shouldn’t exclusively focus on the rating.

“If I enjoyed killing my best friend I should love killing you.” When all said & done I actually liked it.
Slime City takes place in New York & starts with a young guy named Alexander Carmicheal (Robert C. Sabin), or just Alex for most of the film, answering an advert in a local paper about an apartment for rent with his girlfriend Lori Swan (Mary Huner). They meet the buildings owner Ruby (Bunny Levine) & after having a look around Alex decides he’ll take the apartment. At first Alex is very happy as the apartment is clean, tidy & more than acceptable. Alex’s neighbour’s begin to introduce themselves, first there’s a rock chick named Nicole (Mary Huner again this time in a large black wig, come to think of it you never see Lori & Nicole in the same shot together…) who looks pretty hot in mini-skirts & high heels, then there’s a guy named Roman (Dennis Embry) who likes to rummage through the bins looking for stuff & finally there’s Lizzy (Jane Doniger Reibel) who’s Father Zachary (Daniel Frye) was into alchemy & the occult, he lead a cult whom all committed suicide over 30 years ago in the basement… One day Roman ask’s Alex round for dinner & Alex agrees, once in his apartment Roman serves up some strange green slimy goo that he claims Lizzy gave him & is Himilayan yogurt. Alex starts to eat the stuff & actually finds he quite likes it, Roman pours Alex a green liquid to drink out of a wine bottle, also given to him by Lizzy. The following morning Alex wakes up to discover he is drenched in a repulsive oozing slime & to add to his problems Alex soon discovers he must kill to stop the slime consuming him completely, a homeless man (T. Clay Dickinson) & Alex’s best friend Jerry (T.J. Merrick) become victims of Alex’s new found need for blood. As does a prostitute named Heather Langly (Eva Lee) who just happens to be a friend of NYPD cop Detective Irish O’Bannon (Dick Biel) & won’t let her sudden disappearance go as Alex’s problems continue to mount up…

Co-edited, co-produced, written & directed by Greg Lamberson on a estimated $50,000 budget according to the IMDb I was pleasantly surprised just how much I actually liked Slime City, an appropriate title considering it’s set in New York, maybe it’s art imitating life! Sorry New Yorkers only joking! The script has a good central premise which I liked, at least it isn’t just a teen slasher film & I must congratulate the cast & crew for turning in a fairly decent watchable & to an extent an original film that stands on it’s own within the genre. Slime City moves along at a nice pace throughout & never becoming boring or bogged down with unnecessary padding which these low budget horror films usually have in abundance & at only 80 odd minutes long Slime City doesn’t outstay it’s welcome. There are also a couple of references, homages or rip-offs whichever way you want to view it, to classic horror like the Invisible Man (1958) as Alex hides his slimy features behind bandages & Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde (1931) with Alex’s split personality, one a vicious killer trying to completely dominate the other an ordinary person. The characters are pleasant enough & the script thankfully doesn’t resort to having them constantly swearing, the possession aspect of the script is a little cloudy & underdeveloped telling us nothing more than Zachary was an alchemist & occultist but there is just about enough information to get by & understand what’s going on. Please don’t take my praise the wrong way & expect the production values of a big budget Hollywood film as Slime City most definitely doesn’t but the photography is steady, director Lamberson tries to create a few good shots & the lighting throughout is also good which helps, the New York locations work well & help to create the sleazy feel that only New York can, the acting isn’t as rotten as I have come to expect from these zero budget indie horror films with star Sabin in particular putting in a reasonable performance & the most impressive & enjoyable part of Slime City has to be the special make-up effects credited to Scott Coulter which are surprisingly good, again don’t expect anything outstanding but I’ve seen worse in much bigger budget films. They have star Sabin covered in oozing slime throughout, someone is killed with a straight razor, someone has their head bashed in with a metal pipe, someone has their head bloodily smashed open, someone has their arm severed & the final 20 odd minutes sees the almost total destruction of Alex’s possessed body with the help of a meat cleaver eventually ending with his brain being hacked up, good stuff. I can forgive some of the rougher technical aspects of Slime City such as a few obvious continuity flaws & some pretty poor acting by the supporting cast member’s because I just thought that generally speaking it’s good entertaining fun & at the end of the day that’s what watching films is all about & especially horror films, having fun & being entertained. Overall I didn’t think I would but I really liked Slime City & considering that it was made for $50,000 which is peanuts it’s an achievement in itself that I was impressed, easily one of my favourite semi-professional horror films that I’ve come across. Certainly not for everyone as it is very low budget & a little rough around the edges but I personally think it’s worth watching especially for horror fans, just go into it with realistic expectations & you might have some fun.
