The film begins with a naked woman taking a dip, getting attacked, losing her legs and dying. We don't see by what. Then it's 6 young people on a trip to the woods. They stop at a grocery shop and learn of the local legend.
This is entertaining enough if you like creature-features but it's nothing special. I thought it was a well written story with mystery held for the first half of the film. There's even a couple of minor jump scares. In the second half of the film there are lots of surprises in the reveals. We see a little amount of blood splashing, several scenes of a sexual nature (one being rather funny) and while there's a lot of violence we don't see it in graphic detail. Overall it's a decent ok type of low budget horror film.
One of the things that actually annoyed me in this was in the plot and concerned one of the 6. It was the first major twist and I've seen it in quite a few films over the years. Can't reveal as it's a major plot point.
That's just bye the way. The fact that Sid Haig is in the movie seals it for me. I just loved the one scene of his where he's nice and friendly with 100% menace at the same time. Awesome.
Extras include 22 minutes of featurettes. USA Release Region 1.

Purchased this one based on the 5 star review. Had been eyeing it up before it was even released, interested by the "Feast" like cover, the look of the creature and the presence of Sid Haig.
However its a film which fails on all levels.The plot is poor, the acting average, the creature disappoints and its just not scary.
Sid haig plays the same role he played in the House of 1000 Corpse, namely there just to point the usual group of teens in the direction of the creature.
At least in House he had something more to do as Spalding.
The end is ridiculas, to the extent (spoiler?) that the final battle in which the creature is defeated does not even occur on screen.
The little twist at the end is the only highlight but to be truthful if I had been a little bit interested by then I would have probably seen it coming.
A grave disappointment. If you still want to see it, wait until it comes down in price to about £3, or get it second hand or rent/borrow it.
Or better still buy Feast. A much better film.

This is is like the ultimate drive-in flick! Likeable characters, awesome Creature, & great atmosphere! I also have this as one of my "go to" movies I like to play in the background while I draw or paint. I Love this movie :)

Fun and Blood-Drenched Frolics
Some of the other reviews I've read about 'Creature' are a bit harsh for me, so I thought I'd balance things up a little. Read more

Truly terrifying
This is not a high-brow film. It is however a brilliant old school creature feature. I was absolutely petrified and jumped out my seat at least six times. Read more
