LERON C May 10, 2025 The perfect blend of '80s comedy, '80s horror, and Tom Atkins. it's not a groundbreaking film but peak 80s horror that'll give you some light scares, laughs, and cool scenes especially with fire. See more

Alex B @AlexBioni Oct 18, 2026 A B-Movie Baby This feels like Invasion of the Body Snatchers and Slither had a B movie baby. There are funny moments, especially when J.C. says he's Chris's agent. The movie knows what it is and even pokes fun at B movies. I liked the zombie gore when the slugs crawl out, and Tom Atkins, a fellow Pittsburgh native, does a great job. The shift from black and white in the 50s to color in the 80s is a fun touch. That said, I thought it was just okay. If B movie horror comedy is your thing, you'll probably love it. I enjoy movies like this with friends and drinks, but it's not something I'd seek out. Nothing really stands out or feels memorable, so it'll probably be one of those movies I think back on and go, "Oh yeah, I saw that once." The opening is well done, but the second act drags. The final confrontation has fun one liners, but feels too short for a climax. The other actors are just okay, and Ray's ending feels cheap. I'd watch it again, but it's not my go to horror. See more

Jacob B @JB3.0 Oct 17, 2026 Damn good first impression for this director before it all came crashing down when he dared to branch outside the horror genre with RoboCop 3. Night Of The Creeps is a really fun, albeit surprisingly short/fast-paced, horror comedy with some great dialogue, better-than-expected performances from relatively unknown actors - note the lack of a Wikipedia page for J.C. - a scene-stealing detective and tons of memorable moments to the point I was wondering "how have these not become memes?"...the Thrill Me catchphrase notwithstanding, of course. Not to mention how surprisingly progressive it is for its time. All in all, a movie that succeeds at both lampoon's B-movies and providing a sincere throwback to them at the same time. Guess this movie walked so Tremors could run...or maybe Slither is a more apt comparison. See more

Jeepers C @RT12312147 Feb 20, 2026 Another great 80's horror that has camp, gore and plenty of comedic moments. Tom Adtkins is great. It seems like he has so much fun doing these horror movies. This alien scifi doesn't disappoint. See more

Claudio C @Claudio666 Jan 26, 2026 Aliens, Slugs and Zombies (12,228 – 25 Jan 2026 – Claudio Carvalho) The complete review is in my blog. "Night of the Creeps" is a cult-movie by Fred Dekker with a funny story of aliens, slugs and zombies. This movie is a sort of comedy and tribute to the zombie, slasher and sci-fi genres. There are good performances, the make-up is great and the lead actress Jill Whitlow is cute. This film follows the formula of B-movie inclusive with many beautiful legs and breasts in the sorority house. The conclusion is a cliffhanger for a never made sequel. My vote is seven. Title (Brazil): "A Noite dos Arrepios" ("The Night of the Creeps") My Blog: https://maniacosporfilme.wordpress.com/ See more

Johnathon W @Hoppynsc Nov 9, 2025 Fun B-movie that while not perfect, has more heart than bigger budgeted horror movies. The cast is solid and clearly having fun, especially the great Tom Atkins Det. Cameron, delivering the best lines with the right mix of gravitas. Behind the camera, writer/director Fred Dekker crafts a fun alien/zombie movie that pays homage to past horror/sci-fi, including the 1950's (as shown with the black & white prologue). There are a few plot holes, such as just why a guy was kept frozen for 30 years but the rest of the film is so fun you won't care, especially the gore filled ending at the sorority house. The best in fun, b-movie horror. See more
