| Synopsis |
Unknowingly used as test subjects for an experimental drug created by the sinister Dr Carrera, the residents of Pebbles Court, Homesville begin to show various side effects. Ranging from a face-sucking placenta, exploding erections, excessive projectile vomiting and hallucinations of a rib collecting ghost, the drug designed to âcreate the new youâ ends in Body Melt. |
