#NIGHT OF THE COMET SERIES#
Its mix of black humour and horror is exemplified by a sequence with a pair of mutating nurses chattering about how much they like working with children as they prepare to asphyxiate a couple of kids whose blood they want to drain – which sets up a darkly gruesome punchline, ‘gone to see Santa Claus’.ĭirector Thom Eberhardt seemed to be a coming name, but after the Sherlock Holmes parody Without a Clue slipped to TV movies and series episodes.It has been decided, that Driffen's comet has to be destroyed in the 23rd century in order to prevent the Devidians from using it to permanently shift the entire region into their realm. In the villainy department, the film is well served by eyeballs-akimbo Geoffrey Lewis as an evil scientist who wants to exterminate the survivors.
#NIGHT OF THE COMET MOVIE#
It falls into the movie buff in-joke genre beloved of John Landis and Joe Dante, with a heroine who survives the wiping out of humanity because her boyfriend is locked inside a cinema pirating a print of It Came From Outer Space and finds room in the cast for Roger Corman/Andy Warhol icon Mary Woronov as a suicidal femme fatale who brings a touch of melancholy to the film. An enjoyable throwback to 1950s science fiction, which has gained a nostalgic glow of its own for encapsulating 1980s archetypes: the big-hair teenage heroines see the end of the world as a great excuse to hit the mall for a shopping spree to the tune of ‘Girls Just Want to Have Fun’.Īfter a plot device filched from The Day of the Triffids gets rid of all the spoilsports in the world (ie: parents), a few red filters and some ferocious but tacky zombies turn the streets and suburbs of Los Angeles into an alien landcsape.
