Attack Of The Giant Leeches

This movie isn’t about what you think it’s about. Unless you think it’s about a bunch of giant leeches attacking a community of some sorts, then you’d be spot on. In this case it’s a very southern community, the first person to spot a giant leech is a moonshiner. When a woman dies and a man hangs himself (No one believed his giant leech story) a doctor and a warden become involved. They try to figure out what’s going and eventually hatch an explosive scheme to stop the killings.
While the title isn’t very inspiring, the movie itself is pretty well made, albeit low budget. I ended up enjoying this one.
