Review
"Plays like a gloriously bloody and R-rated version of the "Mighty Morphin´ Power Rangers."" --DVD Town

Review
"If you are a fan of the oddball, splatter, low budget, cult film, then Meatball Machine delivers." --DVD Talk

Review
"The main reason to see Meatball Machine is to witness the astonishing prosthetic effects, as the movie revels in bodies being eaten, crushed, and dismembered in a multitude of creatively graphic ways. In addition to all the gory battles," --Reel.com

Customer Reviews

Eeeeeeewwwwwww!!!!
I believe that Meatball Machine was made for the sole purpose of grossing the hell out of people!! And if that's the case, it did a REALLY DAMN GOOD JOB!!! It forever will hold the place in my movie collection as the bloodiest, most disgusting, most disturbing, most downright chilling horror movie I've ever seen!!

There was the one scene where the girl gets her eyes drilled, and I almost lost it. I almost popped the DVD out of the player and ran away! It was so gross and disturbing!! It haunts me!!

Meatball Machine is more disturbing the Saw movies.
Meatball Machine is bloodier than Dead Alive, and YES, it is possible.
Meatball Machine is funnier than Knocked Up.
Meatball Machine is scarier than The Sixth Sense.
Meatball Machine is more of a must buy than any DVD/DVD Box Set you'll ever want in your life.

It's a must-buy movie, because it will make you disturbed. It is vomit-enducing, but so entertaining at the same time. It is very much a must-buy horror movie, because it is one big bloody cake of genres that you will love.

Everything "Tetsuo" Should Have Been.
"Meatball Machine"
A great silly title, for a great silly movie,
It's essentially a cross between "Tesuo: the Iron" and a Gwar video with an Evil Dead vibe going on.
Fetus-Aliens in their bizarre tentacle-ships attach themselves to people's chests and orifices,
and transform them into mechanical killing machines (called necroborgs)
hell-bent on eating each other,
which they need to do in order to live.
Sound wacky enough?
Well it is, but it's still very enjoyable.
Suprisingly, there's a love story here too.
But don't worry that doesn't detract from all the off-the-wall silliness.

Here's a few reasons you might want to catch this flick:
- Lots of great blood & gore, (eye-drilling, head-splitting, etc.)
- A whole bunch of wild battles,
- Bizarre transformations involving whipping red hoses and internal mayhem,
- Psychotic costumes
- Disgusting/gorgeous aliens
- All the campy laughs and blood you could possibly want.

MORAL OF THE STORY:
The only thing better than a man-made machine,
is a machine made out of man.

It was alright
There were some good scenes of gore, but it is in no way gorier than Dead Alive (Brain Dead). Meatball Machine is like a really demented Mighty Morphin Power Rangers movie. All of the monsters look like bad guys from that kids show. The fighting between the monsters wasn't that great.
I wasn't looking for a masterpiece, but I wasn't looking for a kids movie with gore added to it. Some of the bloody goodness was awesome. Heads split in half, eyes getting drilled out, and much more. The parasites that take over the humans are pretty cool looking too. It was worth the watch but not sure if I'll watch it again.
