Evils of the Night

The film constructs its narrative at the intersection of slasher and cheap sci-fi, relying on familiar tropes of teens in peril and sinister aliens. It explores themes of bodily invasion and paranoia, where the threat wears the disguise of medical authority.

What lingers after the viewing is a chaotic mix of vampiric sci-fi, screaming victims, and ludicrous effects that is more likely to elicit a grin than genuine dread. It stands as a peculiarly charming piece of eighties schlock cinema. — MovieFinder Editorial
