Plot summary

While working in a greenhouse, a man receives an insect bite after touching an exotic plant. Immediately, he falls ill and is taken to an emergency room where the doctors diagnose him as suffering from an unknown bacteria, and a strange parasite which emerges from his mouth as a large slimy wormlike creature. Soon, there are more cases of bacterial infection, but the more immediate problem for the hospital is the wormlike creature which after accidental exposure to a genetic growth stimulant grows to monstrous proportions and starts a reign of terror and bloodshed in the hospitals abandoned wing.

Blue Monkey isn't great, but it has enough worthwhile elements to keep horror enthusiasts engaged.

I recently watched the Canadian film ?? Blue Monkey (1987) on Tubi. The storyline follows a hospital that admits a patient with a mysterious insect bite. Before long, an outbreak of deadly insects spreads throughout the facility. Now, local law enforcement must find a way to contain and destroy the creatures before they escape and threaten the world.Directed by William Fruet (The House by the Lake), the film stars Steve Railsback (The Stunt Man), Gwynyth Walsh (The Crush), John Vernon (Animal House), and Sarah Polley (Dawn of the Dead).This is another sci-fi/horror hybrid that's clearly an Alien knockoff-complete with strobe-lit creature reveals and incubation pods. The practical effects and creature design are solid, and the film delivers a few satisfying kills toward the end.In conclusion, Blue Monkey isn't great, but it has enough worthwhile elements to keep horror enthusiasts engaged. I'd score it a 5/10.

blue monkey... why??

Blue monkey is actually mentioned in the film but not in any way that makes any possible sense. At one point,some kids are wandering thru the deeper levels, exploring. They begin to discuss what they'll find down there and one of them (a girl) says she bets they'll find a blue monkey.Yes, thats it. Totally inconsequential to the story, the only sad connection to the title, and no idea why she would suppose she'd find a blue monkey in a hospital's basement.I'm embarrassed for having remembered it but somebody had to remember I suppose!
