This is one of the most fucked up movies I remember the misfortune of seeing as a child. So, if it was just a horror movie, then fine. But it sells itself as a comedy, and it's got a lot of goofiness to it. But it's not lighthearted at all. It's got drugs, rape, sex, body horror, gore. They wrap up people in cocoons, and it's not immediately clear in the film whether they're okay or dead (they turn out fine in the end). The dog horrifying transforms into a bug creature. The girl gets pregnant, lays an egg, and someone stomps on it. This looks and feels more like a horror movie.

Plus they're shape shifting eco-terrorists, whose goal is to make a nuclear power plant melt down and kill as many people as possible.

Do I want to actually re-watch it? Was it actually that weird and scary, or was it just because I was 10?

Yes, same director and same disturbing tone, looking at the dark underbelly of surburban whites.

That's probably true.
