    Oh hell yeah. Pretty straight forward fun creature feature from '83. Has some above average effects and a pretty decent looking monster for the production value. Some absolutely hilarious dialouge as well.

    Fantastic Sci-fi horror shocker is one of the best and overlooked cult classics ever! this has always been a favorite of mine for years, the special effects despite the budget were good and the violence is gory, the music score is funky and this is great fun for any sci-fi and horror fan around.

    Awful low budget stinker from the early 80's. some low budget horror is good...this is awful. Meteorite crashes on earth and eats its way through the locals. Not much effort has gone into it and the effects and acting are very poor. I only rented that i heard it was a sought after horror gem...i think not. Poorly directed and extremly badly edited.

    Pretty silly, but it killed some time for me in a strange city when there was nothing on the television.

    Heres another one of those low budget gems that was made with all heart. The Deadly Spawn is a great little sci-fi horror flick. The puppets are great and remind me of giant monster penises. The scene were the baby spawn terrorize the group of old woman is great.
    I love films like this. Sure its low budget and the acting isnt Brando but fuck anyone who hates on that type of shit. This is a film made with love and care from a true fan of the genre. Its pure homage to the great B films of the 50's and 60's.

    A classic! Gore galore and terrific monster puppets. Worth it alone for the vegetarian luncheon scene. Oh Nibs, you've done it again!

    Great low budget b-movie. Unpredictable, gory, fun, great monsters and just a dab of wackiness make this a perfect popcorn flick. A deadly popcorn flick!

    This orginaly came out to capitolize on the success of Alien. It is itself a very entertaining movie with a few cool special effects. It is the best of a slew of low budget alien invasion movies from around that time.
