MOVIE REVIEW OF 'NIGHT OF THE COMET' AND THEN SOME

Cool Special Effects need no CGI back in 1984 |
And it's been quite a year for Cult Film Freak, having discovered one particular "old movie" actor, Dana Andrews, and with him, cinematic gold was stuck as a barrage of directors, actresses and fellow actors, including his own personal Alfred Hitchcock in Otto Preminger, leading ladies such as Jeanne Crain, Anne Francis and Gene Tierney and a tight troupe of actors including Lloyd Bridges, Harry Morgan, Farley Granger, Hoagey Carmichael and... the list goes on and on, connecting classic films, whether popular (for that time) or hilarious clunkers that became beloved cult flicks (and would now surpass that era's popular ones)...

First released DVD signed by Kelli (and two others) |
In our interview, Catherine wrote: "Even the producers weren’t sure exactly what to do with it. Thom Eberhardt, the writer/director, had always intended it to be tongue in cheek – a kind of salute to the old-fashioned horror genre with a twist of wry humor... The producers looked at it in terms of being a serious horror film, perhaps knowing that there was a more solid market for that sort of thing... Fortunately, it ended up the way Thom had envisioned."

EATING RAOUL Reunion in NIGHT OF THE COMET |
If every motion picture could and would strive to please an audience while keeping its own value intact, yours truly would be back at the Bella Terra theater in Huntington Beach, Ca., with all these new, often politically motivated, overblown, overpriced turkeys and, hell, either way, perhaps a New Year's Resolution is to return for a few New Release Reviews: Which did distinguish this "old movie" website, that will return to shorter, more concise writeups as opposed to essays, from many others out there, and, anyhow... Merry Christmas.
