From the subterranean depths it crawls! Director Douglas Cheek's cult '80s favorite C.H.U.D. is the ultimate underground movie experience. In downtown Manhattan, a police captain's hunt for his missing wife uncovers a series of mysterious disappearances in the area. Extending his search into the tunnels and sewers below, it soon becomes clear that something monstrous lurks beneath the city streets - and it's not staying down there much longer! Starring John Heard (Cat People) and Daniel Stern (City Slickers, Home Alone) alongside an early appearance from John Goodman, C.H.U.D. finally lurches back onto the streets and is sure to delight the most discriminating of creature feature fans!

Press Quotes

A fun slice of Reagan-era monster madness that embodies more than a few of its era's political and environmental fears

     —James Kendrick, Q Network Film Desk

C.H.U.D. stands for cannibalistic, humanoid underground dwellers, but it is one of the pleasant revelations of this enjoyable horror film that C.H.U.D. also stands for something else...and in the category of horror films it stands as a praiseworthy effort

     —Lawrence Van Gelder, The New York Times

C.H.U.D. is the ultimate underground movie experience.

     —Gary Tooze, DVD Beaver

Perfect for bleary-eyed late-night viewing

     —Keith Phipps, A.V. Club

C.H.U.D. is a great film. There are plenty of scares, thrills, artfully done gore, and the soundtrack works incredibly with the mood of the film.
