Toxic Avenger. As far as cheesy monster movies go, this is one of the best.

Quoted:

That was a fairly common theme in the '70s, especially TV movie sort of deals. I vaguely remember one that was about ants rising up and killing everyone and everything, big massive piles of ants...not giant ants, or mutant ants just...ants.

Now I'm sorry I remember that, it was sooooo bad.

Quoted:
There's a 70's movie called Squirm where earthworms rise up and fuck everyone over.

Earthworms. Coming out of the water pipes, raining down from the sky, coming out of the ground, earthworms everywhere. Eating people.

I always suspected that Tremors was a ripoff of Squirm.

Wow. I remember that movie. Good pick.

You brought up Legend. The devil in that movie was pretty freaking scary good.

As a kid, the movie Gargoyles scared the crap out of me. I haven't seen it since I was a kid, and I haven't found it on netflix or hulu. I want to watch it with my kids see it.

This one?

Oh my fuck! I went and downloaded a pic of that creepy floating kid before I even read past the original post. The scratching on the glass raised the hairs on my neck. Still very creepy.

I was in junior high when the movie Salem’s Lot came out and it was talked about at school by everyone. I was just recently telling my wife and kids about that movie and wanted to watch it with them but apparently it’s not on Netflix.

Cool topic!

Who here remembers the movie "The Stuff"? I thought it was pretty creative. You can't have a stranger monster than some evil alien soft-serve.

I don't like horror, so while I don't have a favorite per se, my least favorite would be the aliens from Signs.

The way the musical chord struck during the found footage scene of the kids birthday party, gave me nightmares as a kid for a long time.

View Quote

I'm the same, so the two for me was Gargoyles and Reptilicus. Gargoyles for obvious reasons, but seeing that piece of flesh grow into a monster terrified me as a kid. Oh the nightmares of seeing that tail on the lab table... LOL

When I was about 4 or 5 years old I saw a movie called "Them." Large ants killing/eating people.

I can still see, in my mind, the ant grab the cop from behind and drag him into the basement of the old store. The ant coming up out of the ground/ant hill with the human ribcage in it's mouth to drop on a pile of human bones.

That movie kept me scared of the dark for a long, long time.

Always one of my favorites. IMO, that movie was a perfect example of a filmmaker's reach exceeding their grasp.

Navy Vs. The Night Monsters

In my defense, I was about 6 when I first saw this. Murderous shrubbery, from outer space. That shit will fuck a kid up.

It has some good F9F Panther porn in the end.

Attack of the Crab Monsters fucked with my head as a kid. Filmed in '57, but on the late night horror shows for many years throughout the '60's.

Not sure if the same movie, but one where a giant monster rose out of the sea and they killed it by tying high voltage power lines from a generator to frying pans or something, and threw them into the ocean and electrocuted the monster.
