Here's ten of my favorites that I think deserve more attention.
ALONE IN THE DARK (1982)
THE BOOGEYMAN (1980)
HELL HIGH (1989)
INTRUDER (1988)
JUST BEFORE DAWN (1981)
NIGHTMARE (1981)
RITUALS (1977)
THE SLAYER (1982)
TOURIST TRAP (1979)
XTRO (1983)
I'm going to use this topic to talk about them. Chat it up motherfuckers!!!

Xtro is the shit!!! What's not to love about a killer dwarf clown with a lethal yo-yo, killer toy tanks, a toy soldier that grows to human size and turns murderous, a woman raped orally by an alien, rapid fire pregnancy capped off with giving birth to a full grown adult male, said altered male breathing deadly gas and eating snake eggs, an extraterrestrial shriek which melts telephones and makes ears bleed, death by black panther (the animal, not the militant Negro), gobs of green goo, and last but certainly not least some beautiful gratuitous nudity provided by the stunning Maryam D'Abo, who is turned into an alien egg incubator!  |

Oh I'm not arguing that Xtro isn't awesome. I don't think it belongs in a top ten, but you totally have more than enough reasons as to why you like it. I was just curious why you had it on there.
If this wasn't JUST FOR horror flicks, I'd have Blankman on my list. So what opinion of mine matters?

No prob Bob.  I made the list with flicks that a lot of horror fans I come across have never seen and are missing out on something special. Xtro is crazy. More people need to see that flick. |

I still love how the director is like "This movie sucks, but it still pissed a bunch of people off, so whatever."

The sequels are even worse than the original. Give XTRO a try.

All three Xtros are awful, but the first one has a bunch of rad scenes. Just watch the movie with a super open mind.

And that is why HYB is the place that I call home.
If I didn't have to work a job I would just sit around and write about flicks like XTRO all fucking day.

 This flick RULES!!! It features the original "Head on a Stick" scene. This is also known as "The Creeper" and it is a must see for fans of the classic hicks in the sticks flicks. |
