***Cheezy Alien Invasion Flick***?!


Question: For the life of me, I cannot find the title for a cheezy alien invasion flick, which I saw many years ago on video; all I know is that the aliens started out as small, multi-toothed tadpoles, and grew into giant, multi-headed, multi-toothed, multi-tentled monsters. The big ones sorta reminded me of a red-hued reptilian version of the talking plant monster, in "Little Shop of Horrors", but "LSOH" is definitely not the film I'm looking for; the film I remember wasn't intentionally funny, and was deadly serious...

Calling all horror film gurus out there.....Help Me, Please!!!

Deadly Spawn aka The Deadly Spawn aka Return of the Aliens: The Deadly Spawn aka The Alien's Deadly Spawn (1983)

It's generally a sign of a not-very-good film when it has so many "aliases". But, these are the types of films that end up as cult classics! I haven't seen this one since 1984-85, about the time it would have hit a movie channel. I don't really recall that much about it, but I remembered it because of your description.

IMDB summary:
Two campers in the New Jersey woods have their outdoor fun interrupted by the arrival of a meteorite crashing nearby. They go to investigate the crater, but are suddenly attacked and devoured by alien parasites who have hitched a ride to Earth. After finishing off the campers, the hungry space monsters head for a nearby town, where they make their domain in the basement of an old house soon begin polishing off one hapless inhabitant after another. Four young teenagers, plus one pre-teen boy, try to find a way to stop the angry space monsters before they reproduce and literally eat humanity.

Horror film gurus... I like that! It's different from the usual "maven".

Ooh! It's "Deadly Spawn" trivia!
The film's original title was "The Deadly Spawn". However, distributors wanted to cash-in on the rumor that there was going to be a sequel to "Alien" (1978).

The effects of the mini-spawns slithering across the floor in the basement was achieved by cutting a "S" wriggle into the floor, and pulling the spawns along under the floor.

There's an unofficial sequel, "Metamorphosis: The Alien Factor" (1993). In many parts of Asia, it was distributed under the name "The Deadly Spawn 2: The Metamorphosis". Because "Metamorphosis" was made for millions of dollars more, and had much higher production values than 'The Deadly Spawn" did, the producers wanted to seperate them altogether.

NOTE: I haven't seen the sequel but plan to watch for it!

....sounds sorta like the butt-ugly flesh-eating creatures in the oh-so gory 1983 shocker, "The Deadly Spawn". Check out the DVD cover at the webpage below; does this monster look familiar to you???...

it is "the deadly spawn"-heres a trailer!
