The film creates a perfect balance between action and depth of basic needs, in the midst of an infertile atmosphere.

I do applaud 'writer/director' Jose Prendes for trying.... but I really could strangle him for succeeding! This is horrible, it really is. I seriously can't say anything good about this drivel. I doubt that even if you're a fan of bad movies you'll get anything at all out of this, other than a good sleep possibly. And as for his acting, that shouldn't be allowed under some human rights legislation or other. It's very painful to humans and quite possibly animals too if they're unfortunate enough to watch any of this by accident.I see that he's written two more films since this one and directed one of them. Lord help us! Someone really should take all his cameras and equipment off him to save us more grief. Oh, and his pens and pencils too. Not to mention any computer/word processing equipment he might have. In fact we'd better chop off his hands and rip out his tongue while we're at it. And can't people communicate with their eyes too? Let's pluck those out and slice off the eyelids just for good measure. And what if he's telepathic and could still communicate his ideas to someone else? I think the only way we're all going to be safe would be to decapitate him.I'll volunteer.

This movie looked so much like a home video I wanted to cry. How it's getting good reviews I don't know. It looked terrible, the acting was terrible, the effects were terrible...It was just awful. Reasons why? Well, let's start with the fact it had to have been shot on digital with no budget. Then it's filled with amateurs and some of the worst b movie actors around. It's just THAT bad.

While he is no Ed Wood, Jose Prendes may be a director to reckon with in the future. "The Monster Man" is a live action comic book of continious action and kung fu. While the film is a bit overlong, there is a strong attempt to entertain. There are some comic situations that are really funny and thought out.Given the film's backyard budget, this film holds up better than so many mainstream motion picturs with superior budgets. If Prendis maintains his ensemble of actors (Quigley, Savini) and loyal crew, he may be able to create a bigger budgetted career. The potential is there.
