Lovesusti The Worst Film Ever

AniInterview Sorry, this movie sucks

Glucedee It's hard to see any effort in the film. There's no comedy to speak of, no real drama and, worst of all.

PiraBit if their story seems completely bonkers, almost like a feverish work of fiction, you ain't heard nothing yet.

rangeriderrango It had a budget of $18,000. That in itself gives you an idea of what to expect. The male teens look like they are in their 30's. The acting is so wooden the trees seem more animated. The lighting is terrible. I'm surprised people didn't sue it for eye strain. The only redeeming scene was seeing the Coca Cola machine in the restaurant. That's probably what cost the most in this film as I'm sure Coke didn't want their name associated with this turkey. It's so bad it's not even bad good. I wish I could get back the 85 minutes of my life that I wasted watching this crap.

Idiot-Deluxe Move over "Curse of Bigfoot", you have been usurped by a movie even more boring. Kneel and bow before it, all hail: Night Fright!Talk about a lame and boring sorry excuse of a movie. Just dismal. 1985's "Fright Night" is a true work of genius compared to this.The story was actually fairly interesting and had a lot of potential, about the NASA space prob and the animal mutations. However they didn't have the budget, the expertise, nor any of the necessary special effects for the 40 or so mentioned mutated animals or the spacecraft. The direction and overall execution of this b-flick are woefully terrible and the end result is just another lame monster movie, that is a complete and utter bore to sit through. Most especially in the case of the movies patently lame finale, where we're treated to the thrills of watching several anonymous people who are waiting for the monster to appear; which adds up to -several minutes- worth of people, (I.E. characters you don't care about) sitting in complete silence, staring into the woods at night. The monster is lured into a trap of sorts, with a mannequin which is used as bait and is then blown-up by dynamite. Possibly the least exciting explosion ever caught on film, covered very economically by a single camera angle (blink and you miss it) and there, that's the climax of the movie. In the immediate aftermath, moments later they couldn't even muster up some smoldering monster chunks, instead we see just a small scrap of hair that's not even the slightest bit singed - despite being dynamited one minute earlier. This movie offers no real visuals (except a guy in a gorilla suit and a latex mask), nor generates, at any time, any energy or excitement to speak of. You'll just have to be content with b-list actors briefly describing things to you and several aimless, seemingly under-lit scenes of the monster trudging through the woods at night. Not to forget the "red hot parking action". I'm talking about those scenes that show someone parking their car, getting out and walking to the front door of a house, all in real time, with no editing. One of the staple shots, frequently used in bad movies to pad out their run time and this movie has several such scenes. Ultimately just a profoundly boring and mundane way to tack on extra 20 seconds (or more) to an already crappy movie, all this makes for some truly riveting cinema.How they depict the monster is actually quite amusing (from a page right out of the Hanna-Barbara playbook!), because it has a VERY strong Scooby-Doo-esque sensibility to it, why it's practically tangible. Really, how? Because the monster does nothing, except aimlessly runs through the woods and clearings, with it's arms in the air, while constantly making "scary noises" (just like the monster's in Scooby-Doo cartoons) clearly the mutation it underwent in space didn't increase it's intelligence. Laughable yes, but also repetitive, lame and entirely pointless. Also there's several teen-age beach party and malt shop scenes, which also falls right in line with the well-known formula seen in ANY given Scooby-Doo episode. Further adding credence to the "Scooby-Doo connection".Here's a thought. This movie actually predates Scooby by 1 or 2 years, so just maybe this was seen by the Hanna-Barbara crew and they were somehow miraculously inspired by it, took some notes and ran with it and an iconic cartoon was born; with inspiration born from the bumbling, sub-par effort known as Night Fright. To watch this movie just once, is to watch it too much and too often.And for the record I like and have always liked Scooby-Doo.

zee This is the exact plot of The Eye Creatures (aka Attack of The the Eye Creatures) except this makes that movie look pretty well-paced in comparison. John Agar, looking not too bad for his age, shines in comparison to his costars of unrealistic teens reading awful dialog woodenly and laughing unconvincingly at non-funny "jokes." I suppose you were supposed to be at a drive-in making out to this movie playing in the background, and there's certainly enough excess time in the slower woods scenes to impregnate several women and still have time to grab a vanilla Coke and cheese fries. There was a moment about 2/3 of the way through in which the scientist said something science-y and it was actually correct, and while I've blocked the statement (and soon will block it all, gods willing), it was the highlight of the movie. Everybody who you think will live lives and everybody who you think will die dies and the monster reveal is as bad as you feared and then it's all blessedly over.It is almost bad enough to be good. I watched it alone and chuckled a few times, but if you watched it with three friends and riffed on it or invented a drinking game (maybe unlikely teen slang would be a good signal to drink), it could be fun.

oldschoolhero2006 please disregard all the above ''critics'' who feel it's their 'mission' in life to ridicule classic cinema from the good old days! well, I'm here to set the record straight! NIGHT FRIGHT is a fun, interesting little movie with beautiful girls, a very cool monster & an excellent swinging 60s soundtrack by ''The WILDCATS''. I've watched it numerous times & it's like taking a time machine back to simpler, more enjoyable times. this film has what i call ''60's charm''. i can give it no higher praise than that. other movies that have ''60's charm'' are: HORROR of party beach [1964], FRANKENSTEIN meets the space monster[1965] & SANTA CLAUS conquers the martians[1964]. if you want to cozy up in your favorite chair with popcorn, soda & an open mind, this is a charming slice of a bygone era.
