You’re amazing for choosing one of the best B movies of the 80’s Fingers crossed for Night of the Comet

[@GeneralZodFDNY77]

I still answer the phone with "Thrill Me." since childhood because of this flick. Pisses my mother off for almost 40 years. 😂😂😂

[@michaelschwartz8730]

I am lmao at "Stryper Rules" years old 🤣

[@Shocker74]

The 'Go Monster Squad' is written on a wall in the bathroom scene with Steve. While they were filming this scene director Fred Dekker had just been informed that his 'Monster Squad' script had been ok'd to be filmed next, hence why the text appears here.

[@Malfeitor2001]

Bubba from Mama's Family

[@euphoriatoast]

Excellent call, Sir.

[@user-dz6fy6qv2l]

I was just about to say this. That's what I recognized him from too.

[@JimmyVanHeste-fc8td]

Definitely this. This character is preppy. Bubba is more goofy redneck

[@MyGumShoe]

Boom! Thank you!

[@Fatsatan]

Did yall notice how many characters in this had last names that famous horror directors have?

[@Madbandit77]

"Screaming like banshees...hahahaha..." "Night Of The Creeps" is a fun tribute to B-grade, sci-fi and horror films with some off-beat college humor. The studio didn't promote the film strongly because it wasn't your typical horror film at the time with the smart plot. The characters share the same last names with famous sci-fi/horror filmmakers. So it's fanboy/geek-centric. It influenced the likes of Kevin Smith and James Gunn. The Bradster is played by Allan Kayser, who played Thelma Harper's grandson, Bubba, on the syndicated version of the sitcom, "Mama's Family" (there was an earlier version on NBC that lasted one season) which was a spin-off from a recurring sketch on "The Carol Burnett Show".

“Oh, I've got good news and bad news, girls! The good news is your dates are here." “What's the bad news?" “They're dead."

RIP legend Dick Miller

[@zombiTrout]

Tom Atkins is a genre legend.

[@lurkerrekrul]

In the theatrical version, it ends with Chris and Cindy kissing, then she notices a little dog at her feet. She kneels down, and the dog spits out a slug. The whole part with the burned detective and the alien ship scanning the cemetery are omitted. Also, I think I recall the director's cut having a few more scene with the girls in the sorority house talking. The shower scene might be exclusive to the DC as well. When this played on the various cable channels, sometimes the alien speech at the start didn't have any subtitles. And if I recall correctly, the theatrical version just had English subtitles. The alien subtitles were added for the DC.

[@IHRZGHKIP]

I love your dog for checking on you like that. Good dog! 😂😂😂 Also, every character in this movie is named after a horror movie director.

[@jbjacobs9514]

Allan Kayser (Bradster) is best known for his character Bubba on Mama's Family from 1986-1990. He was SO 80s! Jason Lively, the star, is half brother to Robin and Blake Lively, and also played Rusty in the subsequent Vacation movies after AMH went onto stardom in Sixteen Candles and The Breakfast Club, etc.

[@wotgM316]

"Prom Night II: Hello Mary Lou" (1987).

[@Fardawg]

I love how the opening covers every horror and sci-fi genre of the 50s in one go. There are also a lot of references to genre directors with the character surnames and location names, like Corman University and characters named Cameron, Landis, Raimi, Cronenberg, and the lead and his friend are Romero and Hooper (who also has the middle name Carpenter).

[@imeddiewilson1572]

Found this gem at vintage stock some years ago on DVD with the alternate endings. That purchase is still a no brainer 10yrs later.

[@michaelschwartz8730]

A hidden gem, and somehow a parody of 80's movies twenty years early ❤

[@johnhazard9491]

Tom Atkins is a Legend!

[@theshakyproject2971]

I had the pleasure of attending the cast and crew reunion screening event at The Alamo Drafthouse in Austin, Texas. I met the cast and writer/director, Fred Dekker. I got autographs for my old VHS of the film. There's even footage of me that appears in the special features on the DVD and Blu-ray (the film is coming to 4K soon). During the Q&A session, I told them that George Clooney is listed on IMDB as having appeared somewhere in the film, but I never spotted him. It was revealed to me and the audience that Jill Whitlow (Cynthia) was dating Clooney at the time of shooting, so it's very possible he could have snuck himself in the background of a scene or something. I guess the search goes on.

[@DRaquascapes]

It's about time that you got to one of 80s best horror flicks. This one is really for those horror heads who would frequent mom and pops video stores..trying not to get caught peeking in the adult section in the back.

[@supermoogle07]

OMG YES!!! Your Patreon that give recommendations always give yall such awesome movies. Ones I don’t see hardly anyone react to.

[@johnw8578]

I hope someone recommends Don't Be Afraid of the Dark (1973) -- scared the heck out of me as a kid.

[@FresnoCA93727]

There’s an alternative ending where the dog walks up and Cynthia picks it up and a worm pops out towards the camera and the movie ends.

[@GeneralZodFDNY77]

That's the version I remember. Never saw this one.

[@rockstarbd82]

I think the alternate ending with the ufo is far more effective here. ominous at the thought of more slugs/zombies out of the cemetery, the aliens trying to figure their mistake out there, and chris/cynthia at least having a chance at survival together. didnt like the cynthia probably dies from the dog.

[@federicomuria8377]

0:10 CAUSE THIS IS THRILLER!!! THRILLER NIGHT! 😂😂

[@StCerberusEngel]

As a kid, I would watch a VHS of Haunted Honeymoon (you should check that out, btw) that had a trailer at the beginning for this movie. I spent years hunting down a copy to see it for myself. It's been one of my all-time favorites since I finally tracked it down and saw it all those years ago. Its now one of my small selection of LaserDiscs. Such a great send-up to multiple decades of the horror genre. And Tom Atkins was awesome in this. Worth the effort it took to find a copy! Something about the alien that sent the creeps to Earth: notice it had glazed over eyes. It was a creep host! There are many, MANY references to horror directors, writers, etc. in this movie. Cameron, Romero, King, Landis, Carpenter, Hooper, Miner...just to name a few.

[@Fardawg]

A number of the BETA guys were played by the FX crew, including Robert Kurtzman and Howard Berger, who with Greg Nicotero (who also has a cameo) formed KNB EFX and worked on a ton of films and TV shows like the Evil Dead movies, Dances With Wolves, Misery, Tarantino films, and the Walking Dead TV series. They started out working under Tom Savini.

[@Madbandit77]

I love that fact.

[@kblixt]

Great throwback & cheesy fun!

[@godzillaprime]

Rule 4: Maybe dont bury a murderer with his murder weapon. I mean, if you can. If it's a hassle it's understandable, you know what. I wouldnt worry about either way. But if you remember than that's just great

[@TheCountBlackula1978]

Thank you for watching one of my fav cult classics. Ive been asking about mars bars for years.

[@davidlionheart2438]

I know "Night of the Creeps" by heart. A perfect little comedy horror movie highlighted by the legend that is Tom Atkins and a fun cameo by the equally great Dick Miller as his classic and oft repeated character, Walter Paisley, originally from Roger Corman's 1959 "A Bucket Of Blood". I especially love the injoke name homages to horror directors: Corman, Raimi, Cronenberg, Romero, Carpenter, Hooper, Landis, Miner.

[@dr.burtgummerfan439]

I was wondering if anybody was going to mention the name drops.

[@brockbaby]

One of those rare horror movies that has humor, scares and very painful sad moments (36:07 mark in your video). Night Of The Comet is another.

[@44excalibur]

The music for Night of the Creeps was composed by Barry De Vorzon, who also composed the music for The Warriors (1979), V: The Final Battle (1984), and The Exorcist III (1990).

[@Madbandit77]

@@44excalibur He also composed the music for the original S.W.A.T. TV series.

[@SUK2293]

Mrs Movies looks great in black and white. It suits her mood.

[@MrGpschmidt]

Prime Atkins - 'Thrill Me' indeed. Cult-classic sci-fi/horror/comedy at its '80s finest. Obviously inspired James Gunn's SLITHER (which you s/seek too). The med student is David Paymer who was in CITY SLICKERS & got an Oscar nod for Best Supporting Actor in MR. SATURDAY NIGHT both with Billy Crystal. "Did she get one in her mouth?" "She's about to" - LMAO

[@Madbandit77]

Paymer was also in Quiz Show, Sam Raimi's Drag Me To Hell and did some guest spots on some Stephen J Cannell-produced shows.

[@nobodyimportant7804]

I loved Paymer in Payback. Stegman was an awesome slimeball

[@KellyKels23]

I coincidentally saw this for the first time a few nights ago while I was distracted with something else and Tubi auto played this after finishing Slugs. Got to love these old movies. They’re so much fun. I don’t care how corny they get, I love them!

[@brianlindstrand934]

Yeah!!! Thrill me.

[@nobodyimportant7804]

I have never seen that ending. I liked this one because it gave some hope, the original(presumably) ended with no hope for the characters. There is an unofficial sequel that I have never seen. I think it is called Zombie Town. Probably watched the other version 100 times. I wore out 2 VHS copies and have it on DVD. Now, I have to get the Bluray. The best references were the characters named after famous horror directors. Romero, Carpenter, Cronenberg, Craven, Hooper, etc. This was kind of a love letter to B horror flicks. The Bradster was not from Married with Children, unless he had a guest role in an episode. You are thinking of Ted McGinley, who played the Marcy's second husband, Jefferson D'Arcy. He played Stan the QB in Revenge of the Nerds.

[@WolfHreda]

Have you guys seen Lifeforce yet? Directed by Tobe Hooper shortly after he did Poltergeist. Fantastic movie. And it has Patrick Stewart in it. "Can you imagine living without color in the '50s?" Well, Mr. Movies, they did have _something_ like that in the '50s... 😂 12:29 "What makes you guys think you're Beta material?" Brandon Tenold: "What are you talking about, they're totally betas!"

[@dr.burtgummerfan439]

A good feature for You, Me, and the Boobies 😂

Brad played Bubba on Mama's Family. He was Mama Thelma's grandson on the show.

[@orlandoruizjr3834]

I love this movie. It's like a well made, good version of Plan 9 From Outer Space in a way.

[@starlaclayborn4781]

Thanks Rockstar. I watch this every year.🤗💪🏾

[@Fardawg]

A character in the background in the opening 50s scenes asks someone if they have seen "Plan 9 From Outer Space," which, if you didn't know, was/is considered the "worst" film ever made. It is very unintentionally funny and the grandaddy of films like "The Room" and "Birdemic." The Tim Burton film "Ed Wood" is a highly fictionalized account of the director and his work with Bela Lugosi at the end of his life, and it includes the making of Plan 9 in the plot. Ed Wood and Plan 9 would make a great double feature.

[@Madbandit77]

The house mother, before getting slaughtered by the ax-wielding zombie, is watching "Plan 9" on the TV.

[@timmycollins7665]

Slither is a great movie that homages these kind of flicks from the 80s. It's so great!!

[@44excalibur]

The theatrical version and the original VHS version of Night of the Creeps had a totally different ending. The scene with the zombie corpse of Ray Cameron and the alien spaceship flying above the cemetery was cut out. Instead, it ended with the dog approaching Chris and Cindy as they were kissing, and when Cindy saw the dog and bent down to check and see if was okay, the dog spat out a slug at Cindy and the scene immediately cut to a black screen with the end credits rolling.

This is definitely a fond tribute to B -movies and SCI FI creature features , with some humor thrown in for good measure oh and let's not forget ZOMBIES 🧟‍♂🧟‍♀ and it's such fun for any Horror Geek boy to spot the references like the names of horror film makers like Cynthia CRONENBERG . and i know ROMERO and RAIMI are referenced in there as well . good choice from ROCKSTAR always hilarious to hear the banter from Mr and MRS movies KEEP 80'S Horror alive and Be safe out there .

[@livingcorpse5664]

Saw this when I was a kid, a lot of fun.

[@RoninUK-e3u]

The slug creatures being an experiment which spreads the disease is a reference to Slither (1975) - Cronenberg's first movie where a scientist crosses a parasite, aphrodisiac and venereal disease to create the slug creatures that spread havoc in an apartment complex.

[@lnwolf41]

A good 50's style creature feature. A good B movie❤❤❤❤

[@jcarterla]

Strange Invaders (1983) is technically sci-fi, but I always thought it was scary.

As a fellow Bradster...I approve of this movie.

[@McPh1741]

One of my all time favorites. Tom Atkins is the man. I always make it a point to watch this, Serpent and the Rainbow, and Phantasm 2 during the Halloween season.

[@NoName-nb5nm]

I think a remake of this movie supposed to have been in the world but it got cancelled I believe but there was going to be a sequel to this movie where the aliens from the beginning is trying to obtain the slugs and there be way more zombies but it got scrapped.

And one other thing most don't pick up on: The alien at the very beginning was infected by the slug creatures. That's why he took the canister and ejected it away.

The other ending had them greeting the dog and a slug jumping at the camera. He could have been peeing and wasn’t standing because he was on crutches.

[@Madbandit77]

That was the studio ending, which doesn't make any sense since Chris would lose Cynthia as Ray Cameron lost Pam. Just because Ray screwed up , it doesn't mean Chris has to. Plus, the house mother's dog would had exploded after infecting the Betas.
