NIGHT OF THE CREEPS
I actually love this movie. As part of hazing prank to get into a fraternity, two geeky friends accidently unleash a slug-like alien creature from a lab that crashed to Earth 20 years earlier. Currently free to watch on Crackle - Rated R
THEY LIVE
An umployed construction worker, portrayed by Wrestler"Rowdy" Roddy Pieper, finds a pair of sunglasses and upon donning find that aliens are amoung us.
Available to rent on VUDU for $2.99 - Rated R
THE THING
There was a remake of this movie a few years back, but I think the original is better. 12 scientists in Antartica find something that was buried in the snow and ice and it found a new place to live, by replicating the human it has taken over.
Available to rent on Amazon for $2.99 and is rated R.
TERROR VISION
The Putterman's new satellite TV system tunes into a passageway and transports an alien "pet". It is more over-the-top campy than scary. It is available for Amazon Prime subscribers and is rated R.
KILLER KLOWNS FROM OUTERSPACE
Killer aliens that look like clowns invade a small town. Groan-worthy humor for this PG-13 movie.
Currently available for Hulu and r Amazon Prime subscribers
CRITTERS
A group of stout, furry muli-teethed aliens called "Krites escape from a prision and land on earth and begin devouring everything in their path in a small town.
