Retro Blood 190: Nightbeast (1982)
James Kline and J.H. Alison kick off It Came from Outer Space: Part 2—a month of 1980s sci-fi horror—with the low-budget cult classic NightBeast!
🛸 Travel with us to Perry Hill, Maryland, where plaid-shirted townsfolk take on a laser-blasting alien menace in one of the most charmingly strange indie films of the early ’80s.
🗓️ History Segment (Nov 30, 1982)
💥 Wrestling: A tribute to wrestling legend Jack Brisco
🎶 Music: Alison dives into the cultural juggernaut that was Michael Jackson’s Thriller
🎬 Behind the Scenes:
Director Don Dohler and his passion for DIY filmmaking
The film’s connection to The Alien Factor
A young J.J. Abrams scoring the soundtrack
Nudity, gore, and an unexpected reshoot with Dohler’s hairdresser-turned-actress!
Then it’s a full review of all the laser-fueled mayhem—over-the-top deaths, hilarious character names, love stories no one asked for, and why NightBeast is pure 80s B-movie gold.
