O filmu:
C.H.U.D. is an American horror film (with nods to golden age of Creature Features) produced by Andrew Bonime, and directed by Douglas Cheek with Peter Stein as the director of photography and William Bilowit as production designer. It was released in 1984. Among the notable actors with roles in the movie are John Goodman, Daniel Stern and John Heard. It was followed in 1989 by C.H.U.D. II: Bud the C.H.U.D.. Although the film is of a "pulp" genre and is widely panned by critics, it did receive some good reviews including a positive assessment from The New York Times. It won Best Fantasy Film at Brussels International Festival of Fantasy Film in 1985. It is now considered a cult classic. C.H.U.D. is an acronym for "Cannibalistic Humanoid Underground Dweller". However, the alternate acronym "Contamination Hazard Urban Disposal" was mentioned in the film. According to the commentary on the Anchor Bay DVD, stars Daniel Stern and Christopher Curry were displeased with Parnell Hall's rewritten script, and rewrote it extensively, adding the character of The Reverend and the alternate C.H.U.D. acroynm. They claim that about 50% of the finished film is their rewrite. They chose to remain uncredited.

A rash of bizarre murders in New York City seems to point to a group of grotesquely deformed vagrants living in the sewers.
