| User ReviewPaige BGreat tale and one of the best creature designs I've ever seen. it has such a great effect on me even though I watched this as a kid eons ago and cant remember the title at all, but I do rremember that the creature lives in the attic, is abandoned and has hoofs for legs and is a human+goat crossbreed. A must-watch for all horror fans. way above those current horror films. |
| User ReviewKenny MInexpensively-made, but highly-effective & very loosely-based Lovecraft adaptation, big on creepy tone & atmosphere, less so on characterization & plotline. The remarkable thing (And certainly the most memorable--) about this film is the shreeeeking, naked Albino goat-demoness (Played by the statuesque Katrin Alexandre-) that prowls a sprawling and decrepit mansion, wantonly slaughtering the generally unlikable college riff-raff that decided to party there. The creature is a surprisingly sympathetic character, as well as being a technically- marvelous creation---you'll really believe this is a real entity--another good choice for any Halloween Party movie marathon-- |
| User ReviewLotti KI think Mark Kinsey Stephenson's Ralph Carter was/is the basis for Community's Abed. Other than that, this is a fine HP Lovecraft from the 80s. I remember renting it and being impressed. BUT watching it again, I mean, its a small house, yet somehow they seem to get horribly lost in it. The Creature is very busty though I think the cloven hoof goat legs are a lot sexier. The humor falls flat and there is a weird skeleton hand at the end that just does not make any sense. |
| User ReviewVince FHere's a movie from my childhood! Quite an intriguing horror movie, a must see. |
| User ReviewRalph RAn extra star for my favorite movie breast. |
| User ReviewSierra CI saw this back when I was little...it was creepy and kept its suspense but I'll never forget what that creature looked like at the end of the movie. truly horrific lol...but overallnot bad... |
| User ReviewReed BThis film isn't based on a story by Lovecraft, it's based on a character he created. Sort of. I'm not sure if the monster they eventually show in the film is supposed to be the Unnamable, but it certainly doesn't look like the thing described in the short story. And the movie isn't anything like the story, anyway, except for the concept of there being a creature so beyond human comprehension that it can't be defined in human terms. This film is just a simple college co-ed gorefest. |
| User ReviewPsypher PFor the most part this is a standard slasher. However, a great turn from Mark Kinsey Stephenson as Randolph Carter and a reasonably creepy atmosphere elevates this above its peers. Just. |
| User ReviewJohn DI must rewatch this film. I remember it as being an enjoyable campy horror movie. But others reviews suggest it's a false memory. I know my mother loves it. |
| User ReviewDennis HNothing remotely like Lovecraft's short story but a fun b-movie nonetheless. |
