An 80s underrated Gem & pure Cult CLASSIC!!! What can be said that hasn't already? It's a completely fun creature feature & full of fun moments & crazy scenes & full of greatness i love this movie!!! AWESOME action & AWESOME performances especially the always BRILLIANT TOM ATKINS as Tough rugged Detective Ray Cameron. Tom Atkins brings all his charisma & Cool to his rugged Detective & is funny & heartfelt at the same time, a fantastic old school pulp novel kinda detective & is AWESOME fun to watch & Tom Atkins has said many times that this is his own favourite movie he MADE!!! The kids are all fun & the alien zombie creatures are AWESOME so yeah a solid CLASSIC LOVE IT

There is a usual level of unintended cheesy humor that has become associated by re-watching 80ies science-fiction/horror/comedy films and if you look at some of 'Night of the Creeps's contemporaries they don't tend to age well. After a couple of decades you tend to laugh at how bad the effects are instead of what the filmmakers intended as humor. To it's credit the humor in 'Night of the Creeps' is quite intentional and exceeds most in the genre and keeps the movie quite fresh after three decades. The plot isn't particularly original, the pace is quite slow in places and some of the acting is way too cheesy even for this kind of film but the dialogue is snappy enough to make you not give an ounce of a dingo's kidneys about any of that. Overall the film feels like it was made with a lightness of heart that elevates it most of the time and was made not for frights (of which there are quite a few) but for fun and it admirably succeeds.

This B-movie looks, feels and smells like the decade that spawned it, the 80's. A somewhat unknown film "Night of the Creeps" isn't a blockbuster or epic film by any stretch of the imagination, even as a B-movie it struggles at times to have an identity. It's not really until the last half an hour that the film really gets going. This is a bit of a pity as the opening 10/15 mins offers up so much tacky promise. Aliens unwittingly allow an alien spore loose on Earth, it lands in the middle of nowhere America and coincides with a lunatic escapee attacking people. After the police think they have brought the maniac down they assume the trouble is over but they don't account for the Alien spore which is incubating in the brain of the madman. Flash-forward to the 80's and some college kids unwittingly unleash the corpse of the lunatic (it's been locked up as an experiment) which reanimates due to the alien spore to make a zombie. Once loose the zombie and alien spore escape to wreak havoc around the college on the lead up to prom night. As the alien spore breeds it multiplies and gradually more and more of the college kids become zombies. Will the zombies bring down college and middle America or will somebody step up to the mark and fight? Do they have a shotgun and a flamethrower? Hopefully!With it being an 80's B-movie expect low budget effects, the aliens at the beginning will set expectations for this. The plot isn't that original as it's all been done before. The acting is pretty awful and that's saying something as it looked like it was meant to be serious for the most part. If you think you recognise the main star, Jason Lively, it's because he was Rusty Griswold in "national Lampoon's European Vacation". The pace of the film is pretty bad, for the first half an hour I had a conversation and I Still didn't miss anything, nothing really happens other than setting the scene for some loser college kids. I usually really like cheap and tacky B-Movies but this didn't do much for me. I'm going to give this 3 out of 10, I've watched it so you don't have to and I won't be in a rush to watch it again for a very long time. Oh my God, I've just learned that this "straight to VHS" trash got a sequel, please no!

This film is absolutely brilliant and hilarious - especially for horror comedy film fans.In the mix it is a comedy horror film which includes elements from zombie films, slasher films, alien invasion films, teenage frat parties, an alcoholic detective. But I won't ruin it for everyone, just watch it - but a few alcoholic beverages will make it even more enjoyable.You know you're in the 80s with the music and clothing with this one. There are some parts of the film where I just creased up with laughter. You won't ever tire or get bored of this film. You'll love it when you watch it.
