This was the very first horror/zombie movie I ever saw, I was 6. It was on HBO. Watched it every chance it got on a VHS tape my Dad recorded for me. Finally got to rent it from Netflix and see it with out any snow for the 1st time in years. Still one of my faves after all these years...
I love this movie... got an original VHS copy that's still in pretty awesome condition considering I bought it from a rental store that was trying to unload their videotapes for DVD shelf space.
This flick is almost a guilty pleasure of a fantasy for me like, yeah I'd love to have an entire department store to myself to take what I want. lol
This is an 80's pop-corn coated classic! Also check out Prom Night 2 Hello Mary Lou, a kind of Carrie late 80's Prom Queen revenge flick...outrageously cheesy.
If you buy this, be sure it's in high definition digital: the colors are oustandingly 80's!!! The BEST WORST 80's film goes to BODY ROCK!!! This has to be seen to be believed. I purchased about 10 copies (they were going for $2.oo each): perfect Christmas presents for friends and family! Be warned: they may never speak to you again.
Yes it did seem creepier back in the day...how all the people got turned into powder by the comet...used to freak me out. Now it's just really campy, but still great!!!
Now I see where they got the idea for I Am Legand, from a goof-ball 80's teen movie. Hollywood is so full of talentless dip shits now, the only ones left being in CGI production.
@germanicelt I am legend is a lot older.. since based on a book written in 1954. It's the 4th theatrical movie based on that book, the others beeing Omega Man in 71 and The Last Man On Earth in 64..
@germanicelt EVERY movie about being "the last on earth" gets compared to I Am Legend on Youtube, no matter how distinct or original the plot beyond that loosely univeral premise....Omega Man, Max Max, even Last Man On Earth. It doesn't make a very strong case for the creative imagination of the audience, in my opinion.
I never heard of this movie till I saw it on Amazon just now. I recognize that beautiful chick from The Last Starfighter. I love these zainy retro 80's movies, and I'm gonna enjoy watching this movie on a quiet Friday night just for nostalgia.
Night Of The Comet, Trailer. This is yet another science fiction films from the writers of the 1970s. A comet destroys most of human life, leaving two teenager valley girls to go mall shopping facing the box boy survivors, and the being hunted for some kind of immunity factor, or just sex. Science fiction.
I love Robert Beltran especially when he played the role of Commander Chakotay on Star Trek Voyager. This man is a really handsome man. It's good to see movies that making you thinking about, What ifs? Pretty interesting:)
This is a great B-Movie!! Funny, sarcastic 1 liners ala 2 valley girl sisters who survive the destruction of the world from Haley's Comet. Part creepy zombie movie, part valley girls humor. Bitchin'!!
I think WHEN (cuz they will) they remake it,they need to take the teen only suvivors out and have some older characters, maybe a doctor or something, so we can get more info on what happened. It should also be marketed as a horror movie with more zombie interaction. This one to me just felt like any other 80's comedy, it was a trailer you could watch after sixteen candles and you wouldn't know the diference. I liked it, but it could get better I thik.
A remake would be awesome as long as they kept they it campy. I don't mind more zombie action as long as they don't go all out horror and lose the funny. it's doable, just look at Shaun of the Dead.
i neever understood this, was this a horror movie, or a comedy, i know it had zombies, and i saw it before, and it had a bit of return of the living dead sence to it
A couple weeks ago, the evening sky out where I lived looked in such a way, that I felt like I was living in the aftermath portion of Night of the Comet. It felt so weird. That omninous yellow-reddish hue.
I loved this movie so much. My son is now 14 months old and I have been trying to remember the name of this movie since I was pregnant with him. That's quite a while. I finally found out what it was tonight. I'm ecstatic now. I want to watch it again. Thank you for posting this trailer. I enjoyed it. It summarized the movie well. I wish they still played this on daytime TV or even nighttime TV.
they do on the scifi channels and tbs.. It's on all the time. course not in the next two weeks according to tvguide.. ack! there's a news blurb about them producing a sequel!! please no!
This is so cool! I can't help but wonder why this movie is never a rerun on the Sci-Fi channel, TNT or Spike as it's been years since I've seen this. The male acter went on to play a Chakotay in Star Trek: Voyager.
Night Of The Comet has been one of my favorite movies since I was a kid. I always thought it was a really great movie blending terror and humor fantastically. I'm so glad you posted this trailer. I've never seen it before. Thank-you.
Well, it's your lucky day if you live in the States or have a multi-region player- the DVD finally arrives on March 6th! Here's hoping for Monster Squad...
I love that movie but its sad sense it sometimes aird on SciFi ch,And the last time i wathed it was back in halloween of 2002,I can still hear the song of (ALL Girls just wana have fun)it gose threw my head every time i think about that flick.
Not an Academy Award winner, but... a fun movie that our family has seen dozens of times. I repeat: it's a "fun" movie; not meant to be anything more than that.
I found it on a web page. Was difficult to find! the one in imdb is not working right.. There's a petition for the dvd. I'll post it if your interested.
Remember this from the 80's underrated sci fi film.
