Creepozoids (1987, David DeCoteau)

What you have here is your standard "Alien" influenced, 80s B-movie schlockfest - simply there to entertain. It just depends on how far you allow yourself to be entertained because "Creepozoids" - right down to it's name - sounds like shit (which it totally is), though there IS plenty to get into...

The story is as shallow as this: post-apocalyptic setting. A few stragglers wandering the barren landscape come across an abandoned laboratory and, since the severed head and ominous sense of desertion wasn't enough to send them hurdling toward the exit, they decide to do some computer hacking and shower sex. Yes, none other than B-horror scream queen numero-uno Linnea Quigley gets top-billing and abides by her ever-pleasing trend of stripping down for us valued fans. Turns out there's a creature in the building that ejaculates a toxic mist on them which causes them to become "Evil Dead" -like and melt. This shit's not as cool as it sounds up until the very end when the remaining dude gains the upper hand and the dead creature births a demented "It's Alive" looking puppet-baby which was fucking hilariously random! Oh, and there's a huge killer rat thrown in just for the hell of it...

"Creepozoids" barely surpasses the one-hour mark and is just goofy enough for me to recommend (slightly). Watch for Linnea's wet tits and the evil baby!
