Feeders (1996) is a low-budget, independent sci-fi horror film written and directed by the Polonia brothers. Shot on video at a time when access to VHS recording technology had become easy enough that amateurs could make movies and receive distribution, Feeders is semi-popular among cult film enthusiasts for its extremely amateurish direction, acting, writing, and special effects.

The movie had a Christmas-themed sequel, 1998's Feeders II: Slay Bells, which was reviewed by Something Awful, who called it one of "Film's Best Worst Movies".[1][2]

Synopsis
