The Being (1983)

Released November 18th in the US.
Filmed entirely in Idaho.
The story : It's Easter weekend in Pittsville , Idaho.
Everyone is going about their normal weekend things.
There is a certain nuclear waste subject that has been surrounding the town.
The town was informed by their chief scientist that drinking water that has been contaminated with nuclear waste is not harmful to their health!
The mayor of Pittsville has been going to great lengths to keep this nuclear waste nonsense under wraps.
But there happens to be some sort of nuclear waste monster , who I think goes by the name of Michael , popping up around town leaving snail trails and killing people.
