Jam packed with rad practical fx, lotsa gore and ALL the 80s charm this film is totally ripe for the pickin’ to receive a totally def blu ray release from whatever label wants to rule the school of lost but bad ass 1980s horror cult classics!
I thought I saw Night of the Creeps! I was glad I hadn’t…yet!
For years I had thought I had seen Night of the Creeps from 1986, infact I swore it was a mediocre, at best horror flick from the 80’s. I had seen the cover, T-shirts and have even talked to people though breifly about the movie as if I had seen it. Well when it arrived in the mail for me from my online dvd account, I will admit when reading the description on the sleeve I was a little hazy on what I really remembered of it. When I started it, it was perfectly was clear. I had NEVER seen this movie before. Really now, would I EVER forget a movie from the 80’s that starts off with an opening sequence as rad as this?! NO!
