[.ca] Slugs (ISBN 0751514187)

Killer slugs? You've got to be taking the proverbial.:
Apparently Shaun Hutson's writing career started when, after reading a horror paperback called 'Night of the Crabs'(5 stars), thought he could do better. 'Slugs' tries so hard to be gory and shocking, but the thought of killer slugs biting and attacking people is just too comical to be taken seriously. Alright, so slugs can be considered disgusting, but they're hardly terrifying. The book does manage to be fairly entertaining, however, and should provide for lovers of gore and repulsiveness. Lovers of creepy and suspenceful mutated-animal horror stories, on the other hand, would be better off finding a copy of 'Night of the Crabs'.

Beware!:
If you don't mind stearing clear of the little suckers (no pun intended) for the rest of your days then, by all means, read this book. What a master of the creepy.
