That cover art is kinda funny lookin'. I'd've ditched the oddly placed pop art heads, and made the cool chewy maw the sole focus  Dunno this film - is it any good . . . ?

It's hilariously bad. I love it, possibly one of my favorite low budget creature features.  |

A real shame that this isn't getting the Blu-ray treatment (a missed opportunity, imo), but this is a great edition to Arrow's catalogue, and I suppose there's always the chance it may get a HD release further down the line.

Oh it is.....I've never heard this being bad mouthed. Given the budgetary restraints,it's a marvel of eighties z grade cinema!  Daemonia and plasterface like this.
