matt caldwell This movie wasn't that bad. It was not intended to be taken as a serious horror flick. It was a movie that was in many ways making fun of the obvious stereotypes that are present in horror films of the current and past eras. Haven't we all wondered why the people in movies tend to move towards the darkest places....or why do people always go check out that mysterious noise instead of staying the hell away from it and minding their own business? On top of that, the plot was something similar to that of what you see in the Scream trilogy and the Urban Legend movies. What would happen if the movies started coming to life? This movie gives one answer. If you ask me, it was a much better movie than many I've seen...and it kind of has a Stephen King Langolier's feel to it. If it had been a bigger budget, it might have been a little better quality, but it was still a good movie anyway. At any point, any true fan of horror movies or B movies would enjoy this movie. When i saw it....i endured the commercials to see it, and enjoyed it.

KLeoRI M. Emmet Walsh portrays "Lloyd," an aging former star of a series of 50s "B" monster movies; Lloyd always portrayed the hero, a teenager who, initially was never believed by the adults when he claimed that a monster was about to attack the town. Of course, as in all classic monster movies, he was proved right and he "saved the town!" The movies were filmed in Lloyd's own small town, where, though he is considered a local celebrity, he is also considered a loony -- he is in the "New Purgatory Psychiatric Ward" because he insists that his town is, in fact, about to be attacked by "the monster." Enter Lloyd's grandson, who signs him out of the psychiatric hospital; they settle in at Lloyd's home, where Lloyd, who still takes his role of "town hero" quite seriously, instructs his grandson on how to fight the approaching monster according to "movie rules." People do, in fact, start getting killed; however, the sheriff thinks that Lloyd is the killer. Little by little, his grandson comes to believe that his grandfather may just be telling the truth.Don't look for totally logical resolution, but do look for classic 50s monster scenes: the couple "making out" at Lover's Lane, the people running screaming from the movie theater. This movie follows the traditional monster movie plot perfectly and is a wonderful "tongue-in-cheek" tribute to the B-movie art form.

derfybarfy You know those movies that are so bad that they become funny? Well, this isn't one of them, this one is even worse.Seriously, don't get fooled by its somewhat interesting plot.The main problem with this movie is that I'm not sure what it wants to be. In fact I'm not even sure if it tries to be anything at all. It says here on IMDb that it is a horror/sci-fi movie, well if you think an alien taken straight out of an episode of South Park is scary, well this might be the movie for you.Most of the scenes are just awkward, and the acting is non-existent. There just isn't anything interesting happening in this movie whatsoever.Can't say it enough times, just stay away from this movie.1/10

Chip Gallo (cgallo) I caught the second half of this film on the SciFi Channel. Bianca Nacson (Susan) seemed to be kissing her boyfriend goodbye in every other scene, and having fun. M. Emmet Walsh knew just the mood to hit for this kind of parody and kept things rolling to the end.Cool car, too. Glad the CGI monster didn't scratch it up.
