Writer-director Ryan Kruger (“Fried Barry”) revives the gross-out exploitation of the ‘melt movie’, but also throws in shades of “RoboCop”, “They Live” and “The Warriors”. Its tagline “melt the rich” perfectly sums up the added action plot: the unhoused misfits will most definitely take revenge on the cartoonishly villainous mayor, as he exterminates every unhoused person in the city, one melting body at a time. While the 1987 original was written “to democratically offend every group on the planet”, here bad taste has some limits – with immodesty favoured over immorality. Subtle it is not, but there’s a wholesomeness to the affection this remake has for its central characters – though much more, of course, for its gore. The beating, melting, exploding heart of the film, these sequences – in which people are spectacularly eviscerated from the inside out – keep coming, and keep pushing the threshold. There’s something for everyone (to be grossed out by): torn-off faces, severed genitals and a horny, foul-mouthed imaginary friend. And that’s all in the first ten minutes. All guts, so gory.
