talisencrw I watched this no-budget film, shot near Dallas, Texas, last night, as part of my 50-film 'Nightmare Worlds' collection by Mill Creek. Though it had no scares or suspense whatsoever, and you could tell what was going to happen at least ten minutes before anyone in the film clued in, it had the enjoyability and charm of a period piece, or time capsule, of youth from that era. The instrumentals from the garage band The Wildcats, and watching the teens dance, interact and fight, were the best aspects. You could do worse--and I would much rather watch something like this than a pretentious piece of garbage, costing hundreds of millions of dollars, that Hollywood pumps out by the truckloads these days.

Bezenby It's the oldest teenagers ever wandering around a wood versus a guy in an alien suit wandering around a wood while cops wander around a wood while other teenagers wander around a wood. Night Fright is THAT interesting. Especially the bit where Jackie Chan, John Wayne, Elvis, Jesus and George Buck Flower form a band and play for the youths, but that might be missing from the version you see.Some 'teenagers' are necking in the woods in their car when something approaches them and kills them…offscreen. Soon we're introduced to some more geriatric teenagers, all planning to go down Satan's Hollow and boogie down to some vibes, daddy. However, something has crashed in the forest and even the local cops aren't allowed near the crash site. The sheriff and his deputy (Bill Thurman, who somehow looks older here than he does in later films like Keep My Grave Open and Creature from Black Lake) wander around the woods a bit and find some fur. They also chase off the local youths, and nothing is gonna stop those local youth coming back for a bit of a party. At this point there's an excellent orgy scene involving over forty people culminating in the most jaw dropping money shot in movie history, but that might be missing from your copy.So, you got the cops wandering around, a journalist wandering around, some youths dancing to some awful music while the camera lingers on their arses, and the two innocent youths trying to prevent the bad youths from being killed, while this big creature wanders around. Wander wander. What a drag, mang. Thankfully Lulu and the Beatles turn up to do a hilarious comedy skit that ends in a big pie fight, but that's only available in certain versions.There's no gore, no nudity, and not much happening at all. My copy wasn't too hot either (but I'm not marking it down for that – the film has enough faults as it is!). What's the point if you're not going to show anything? Except for that flashback the sheriff has to the D-Day landings which involves some of the most realistic scenes ever filmed, but that was only on the old Betamax versions.Seriously, does anyone read these reviews? Mr would you please help my pony?

BA_Harrison This incredibly crummy piece of 60s sci-fi nonsense was retitled for the UK video market in the 1980s as E.T.N.: The Extraterrestrial Nastie, giving the impression of a gory, exploitative take on Spielberg's classic family favourite; but those fooled into renting the film believing that they were in for some serious graphic violence would have been extremely disappointed, for the nastiest things about it are the appalling acting, awful direction, pathetic story, and horribly dated 60s fashion, music and dialogue—there's not a drop of blood to be seen during the whole sorry mess.The 'extraterrestrial nastie' in question is the result of a government experiment on animals in space, a massive mutated monster (played by a man in a gorilla suit and rubbish plastic mask) that crashes back to Earth and goes on a rampage, killing teens who are making out or partying in the woods. There are a few laughs to be had from the 'kids' hilarious 60s lingo (although it's still nowhere near as ridiculous as the way youngsters communicate these days—LOL!) and their energetic gyrating at the 'blast at the lake' is perversely entertaining (some strange moves with most of the groovy chicks being easy on the eye), but apart from that, there's little to recommend about this badly dated piece of amateurish drive-in drivel.

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.
