Cult '80's Movie

It's quite good. The lot is here, zombies, aliens, slasher, and slugs, in fact the silliness is that it doesn't know which one to use. The opening scene makes you think it is an alien film, then slugs, then a slasher then zombies.Fun in parts, but most of all no one seems to care that there is something out there that is killing the fraternity. It's very much an "oh, okay" movie.For its time, the special effects are exceptionally good although the cat and the dog who have been turned into, well, zombies I think, are quite dodgy. But that's the attraction. It is an 80's B movie that everyone will love to watch. It doesn't take anything serious throughout. Have a laugh and watch it.

"The Good News Is Your Dates Are Here, The Bad News Is THEY'RE DEAD!"

Tom Atkins, Jason Lively, Jill Whitlow and Steve Marshall star in Fred Dekker's 1986 horror film. This begins with an infected alien releasing a dangerous experiment off a spaceship into space. In 1959, A college couple go on a date and run into a cop, Ray Cameron who is actually the girl's ex-boyfriend. They're told that an escaped killer is on the loose and should go home. Instead, they try to find a shooting star and the girl gets hacked up by the killer while her boyfriend gets infected by the alien experiment in the woods that's really the shooting star. In 1986, Two college buddies, Chris Romero (Lively) and J.C. Hooper (Marshall) attempt a pledge prank and find the infected teen who has been frozen for 27 years. Chris also meets Cynthia Cronenberg (Whitlow) while detective Cameron (Atkins) investigates the bodies. He thinks they might have something to do with the killer who murdered his ex-girlfriend and shot years ago. J.C. doesn't make it, but Chris learns that the slugs infect their hosts turning them into zombies. Soon, Chris, Ray and Cynthia fight against them and the zombies. I finally watched this a few years ago and liked it since. Atkins is great as usual and steals the film. I also like how the film makes references to famous directors and has a nice little mix of sci-fi & B-movie elements added. I recommend this fun, campy 80's horror flick.
