Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaTo achieve the gruesome Melting Man monster, makeup effects artist Rick Baker fashioned a slightly over sized skull-shaped helmet for actor Alex Rebar to wear. The piece was painted flesh tone and then was cover by a gooey concoction of syrup and paint. The drippy substance would have to be re-applied for every take of the Melting Man. At the end of each shoot Rebar would have so much of the sticky stuff on him that he would literally have to peel his costume off.
- GoofsWhen the nurse enters the room of the melting man, she drops the blood containers and it splatters her shoes; then, as she runs away down the hallway, her shoes are completely clean.

A big big big pain, ooh i love pain
This movie is bad, no doubt about it, nothing good in that. In fact, i can't find with all the possible reasons why they do such a film ? Neither i understand why they've done a re-edition on video ? Maybe for the special effects, but even for that, this movie is not worth it. The story is really too easy, and i dont recommend a trip to Saturn, your skin may begin to melt and you'll be forced to pursue big nurses with apparently a surhuman strentgh and you'll have to eat flesh. So if i was you, instead of renting this movie, rent something like The Monster Club, another bad but enjoyable B movie...
