I forgot how gross this movie was
I remember watching this movie a lot as a kid and was always fascinated by it, but man oh man after rewatching it just recently this movie was all kinds of gross. Like, there was puss everywhere, and the creatures looked disgusting.
It's amazing how well practical effects still hold up, though. Something physical sure does outweigh all that crappy CGI that fills up movies these days. Nothing compares to the grotesque nature of monster flicks from back in the 1980s.
