Night of the Creeps Movie Review



In 1958 alien meanies crashland on Earth and assume the form of parasitic slugs. The man they infect is cryogenically frozen, then thawed out thirty years later on the campus of Corman (homage to Roger) University, where he staggers about as a moldering zombie, spreading the living-dead contagion throughout the town. Good-looking B-movie satire plays around with every schlock-horror cliche there is, yet manages to avoid the sleaze factor itself. Contains numerous nods to B-movie folks, including cameos by such regulars as Dick Miller. Director Fred Dekker's first film.



1986 (R) 89m/C Jason Lively, Jill Whitlow, Tom Atkins, Dick Miller, Steve Marshall; D: Fred Dekker; W: Fred Dekker. VHS, Beta, LV NO
