It's a little dated but still watchable, riding the thin edge between good entertainment and bad B-movie.

Guests invited to the opening of a new theater transform into monsters. Not much of a plot and the acting is thin, mostly consisting of screaming and shouting. Basically a vehicle to present you with massive amounts of blood, gore and pus. So if that's your thing...
Little Shop of Horrors (1986), musical-comedy horror starring Rick Moranis (playlist - complete)The Brain (1988) science-fiction horror, directed by Edward Hunt added 24 Aug 09
starring Tom Breznahan, Cyndy Preston, David Gale
Becky has schizoid episodes which cause her to murder her mother and then commit suicide. Meanwhile "Dr Blake" is on an infomercial promising a cure for bad teen-aged personality behaviors. Is there a connection? Meanwhile, Tom Breznahan is a brilliant student but full-of-mischief so his parents send him to Blake's institute for "treatment". Scary music now, you know the drill. Almost spoofish, but some plot elements are creative, and the creature is at least decent.
