Humanoids from the Deep

(1980)

Something's going around killing guard dogs and raping our white women, and you know what that means. That's right: humanoids from the deep. Towns in these movies are always throwing some dumb festival just so the monsters can wreck it and it can be all ironic and shit- like if it's a movie about a killer tree there'll be a lumber festival, or if there's killer rattlesnakes there'll be, I dunno, a poison festival or something.*  This time that idea pays off, though, because when the humanoids from the deep invade this fish festival there's a huge battle and a bunch of people and humanoids get killed and it's pretty awesome. Throw in a shitload of top-drawer tits and lots of monster rapes and you got yourself a movie, here. I don't like to toss around the word "classic" like some shitty movie reviewers (I'm looking at you, Leonard Maltin), but this movie is a fucking classic.

*For some reason, there's always a band dressed like a barbershop quartet playing at these festivals. If you watch enough horror movies, you start to wonder if there's like this huge underground of barbershop quartets rolling around the country in RVs and fighting over gigs like "The Loudoun County Fair Kiss-A-Pig Contest".
