This one is a childhood favorite from memorable late-night TV-showings back in the day. Of course on those viewings I missed out on some of the gore and the one pair of boobs that shows up. The film is kind of a remake of that 50s monster movie THE HIDEOUS SUN DEMON except now we have really gooey fx work by Rick Baker and a monster(actually an astronaut that's returned from a trip to Saturn that's suffering from some pretty catastrophic side-effects but also super-strength) that bites peoples throats out to drink their blood and tear them apart just because he's really pissed-off about the whole melting thing. 70s monster movies that seem like they escaped from the 50s(like OCTAMAN for example) are certainly one of my favorite wacky genres but this may have more to do with nostalgia than any actual fine qualities the films possess but if you were a monster kid they're definitely worth a look.
