SYNOPSIS:

Detective Steve Andrews is investigating the disappearance of a pretty college co-ed when he gets a call that an inmate at the Hagerthy Psychiatric Hospital might know something about the case. The inmate, Charles Parker, has been telling the strange story of a vicious vampire-like beast called the Chupacabras that he claims he trapped in a nearby mine and destroyed after it had savagely killed a number of the local citizenry. Among the missing: a girl who matches the description of the college co-ed. Before Andrews can talk to him, however, the inmate escapes leading the Detective into a maze of horror and the realization that he must find the missing girl before time runs out.

Smithee Award Nominations

Oblivious
Turn Away The bad guy has her dead to rights, and is DEFINITELY going to kill her. She tries to negotiate, but to no avail. Then...just as he's about to pull the trigger...a noise distracts him. He turns away and she runs. He confusedly pursues.

Stupidest-Looking Monster
CHUPA! A horrific CGI "chupacabra" bites... And also bites a guy in a barn. CHUPA!

Crummiest Ending
It Was a Were-Chupacabra The whiny girl and her dumb boyfriend defeat the monster with flashlights, only to discover it was actually a were-chupacabra. And the sequel bait arrives right on schedule.

Worst Acting
Gary Agid as Father Lewis Our Padre (Gary Agid) attempts to be personable, but his performance is wooden and stilted, as if he'd just learned his lines five minutes ago. Which he probably had.

Worst Picture
Something Gets the Padre's Goat The priest enters the barn, despite all manner of protests. He means well, but...it doesn't end well. A veritable welter of Inanes, Acting-Appropriately-Stupids, and Alas-Poor-Yorickses.

Lights Out for the Kidnapper

One of the kidnappers and the girl he's kidnapped run into a cabin, pursued by the Chupacabra(s). But he stupidly wants the lights off to "fool the monster into thinking nobody's home." Of course the horrific CGI Chupacabra breaks in and I guess kills him (i.e., stands over him a bit). She's left alive (for some reason) to tell her idiotic tale to the next guy who comes in.
