Critters (1986): The Critters Retrospective

Critters Poster
Starring Dee Wallace, M.Emmet Walsh, Scott Grimes
Directed by Stephen Herek

It's finally time to debut the first ever Necropolis Retrospective, where I take a look back at different horror series' over the years and see how they hold up after all this time.  As you can see, I've decided to start with the Critters series.  The first Critters was released back in 1986, and was directed by Stephen Herek.  Herek later directed such classics as Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure, The Mighty Ducks, and Mr. Holland's Opus.  So obviously he's a very well-rounded director.  To me, this movie as well as Critters 2 are a couple of very good examples of 80's cheesy horror goodness.  But let's get into the movie itself and we'll take it from there.
