We're headed to the woods in today's episode of Sick Flicks as we search for Ticks!
Released in 1993, Ticks was one of those movies you invariably rented at your local video store or caught on late night cable. With an all star cast (or something...) including Seth Green, Alfonso Ribeiro, Ami Dolenz, Clint Howard, and Peter Scolari and some really gooey practical effects, this one really earns its cult reputation. It may not be director Tony Randel's best known film, but it's really good.
But can Ticks suck enough blood to fill five barf bags? Let's get to the gore and find out!

Hey Mike, your puns in this critique( and many others), are both pretty funny and witty. Seth Green does a pretty good job in this and I know I've seen Amy Dolenz in something else but not sure what, any ideas folks? I remember Clint Howard better from Evilspeak, but then that movie as a whole is hard to forget anyway. Just for the record Mike, Seth G was in this a few years before playing a werewolf in Buffy the Vampire Slayer TV series. No offense bud, I dunno if you knew. Caio for now folks!

Hey, actual entomologist here, don't light ticks on fire when attached. Use some forceps or tweezers, grab as close to the head (basis capituli) as possible and *slowly* pull until the tick is completely removed. They anchor themselves into the skin with recurved teeth and glue-like salivary components. They can't just "let go" since most ticks need to feed for several days and up to a week or more.

I had it in my hand(along with about 10 other titles) but decided to skip it and picked up a copy of "Die You Zombie Bastards!" instead. Bad choice... decisions are hard=-/ They made more money off me buying their liquidated stock than they ever did from me actually renting the movies! *I'll see your "remembering VHS rentals" comment, and raise you a 'remember renting NES games at the local grocery store back in the day' The early-mid 90's were awesome...

I love animals attack movies and it's usually extra fun when filmmakers go with tiny creatures scary in a creepier way than a lot of larger threats. I avoid normal ticks at all costs. I even bribe the opossum that lives under our deck to keep their populations down. The ticks in this are quite menacing and just large and skittery enough to really get under the skin. And is there ever a performance he gives where Clint Howard doesn't pack ten pounds of solid acting into a five-pound bag? So grateful to see Sick Flicks goes on another week despite YT's best efforts to drive you to madness!

Your work has brought me much joy this year, and I was distraught reading your message the other day about the evils of PrudeTube. If you choose to bow out, I understand and respect that decision. Your body of work will nonetheless be on my re-watch list in perpetuity, for it has become that important to me, and will always be timeless. I'm joining Patreon for as long as I can, as a way of saying thank you for your hard work. Yours is the only channel I have done this for, and iy's a direct reflection of the admiration, gratitude, and respect I have for you as a talented and worthy creator. Love you, man!

Thank you so much! The Patreon support really helps. Like as I'm thinking about the future of the show, a lot of it involves Patreon. If I could get the show to a level where viewer support outpaced the ad revenue, life would be easier because YT would have way less impact on the videos. Like if I could even something like 2,000 of my 54,000 subs to join the Patreon and support the show, it would change everything. I just REALLY hate asking for people to join the patreon because I know times are tough. But in some ways, it's one of the few ways to circumnavigate YT's meddling and free me up to make videos without constantly worrying about getting claimed or age gated or demonetized.

Man I watched this when I was a kid, and that one scene where Alfonso character falls out and skittering across the floor before he split in half from the tick, after that I couldn't handle any sort of bug on me, and then when I actually did have a tick on my head, I was an absolute mess when my parents were trying to get it off lol. Its so silly now, and even though it traumatized my childhood, it's one of my favorite, goofy horror films

Ooooh, Ticks. Maybe I'm mixing it up with something else, but I want to say there's a scene where a tick explodes out of some guy's back. Speaking of cheesy 90s creature features, there's this movie with mutant lizards called Aberration that seems like a good fit for this channel, but I don't know what kind of body count it has. Lastly, you have to cover Carnosaur at some point, if you haven't already. I mean, you don't *have* to have to, but you get my point.

The puns are strong with you on this one! This is my favorite sub-genre of horror, and Ticks is a mighty fine example. They don't make 'em like this anymore.

Another great review sir! Is ticks proof that buffy and the fresh prince are part of a shared universe? I smell a crossover!

Imagine how ticked off one can get when someone makes a cute cuddly critter into some sort of monster.

Wow, four barf bags? I remember seeing this when it came out and I actually liked it a lot, but I was thinking 3 bags, I can accept your 4 bag rating, though, lots of tick guts! Great job uncle Mike, and a Merry Christmas to you and yours my friend!🎅
