Curiosidades

Parasite is a 1982 American science fiction horror film produced and directed by Charles Band. The film is set in a dystopian, post-apocalyptic future in which the United States has been taken over by a criminal organization which unwittingly creates an uncontrollable deadly parasite and sets it loose on the population. The film received negative reviews from film critics, who viewed it as a poorly written B movie with unconvincing special effects. The film features actress Demi Moore in her first major film role.

Production

The film was envisioned as a remake of William Castle's The Tingler envisioned by Michael Shoob, Alan J. Adler, and Frank Levering that was further developed into what would become Parasite following an impromptu discussion between Adler, Charles Band, and Robert Glaudini. A Chance encounter between Band and 3-D specialist Randall Larson convinced Band that shooting the film in 3-D would add commercial appeal to Parasite.
