    I LOVED this movie when it was first shown on HBO, waaaaay back in the 80's! I would look through the cable TV schedule to see when it was being broadcast (usually in the wee hours of the night), and stay up to watch it if I didn't have work the next day.

    It was extremely funny, and the zombies actually had brains of their own before they degenerated into so much dust.

    The red atmospheric effect was very spooky to watch; it gave everything a very surreal, unearthly look. And the really scary part wasn't the zombies, it was the complete and utter stillness of that portion of L.A. without any people or traffic.

    To me, those are the scariest nightmares to have. When you can't hear a single, blessed thing....AT ALL. You can't even hear yourself breathing, even though you know you are.

    Can you imagine, being in a city as big as New York, or L.A., and there's literally NO ONE around? No birds, no people, no traffic; literally nothing.

    Scary as all Hell, let me tell you.

    After that, zombies are a nice change. One good shotgun blast to the head, and you're good to go.

    ^^ i don't think so. the main characters are valley girls. A young Robert Beltran is in it too.

    Never heard of it, I'll have to see if the library has it. I'm guessing its about a comet at night?

    I saw a little bit of it on TV a while back and seemed really dated now, but I really liked it when I first saw it.
