Gotta love Red Letter Media....

Gotta love the good folks from RedLetterMedia.com for finding this little piece of B movie gold.

What a great film for a low budget movie, anyone else agree?

Oh yes, definately. A great, atmospheric, psychedelic trip of a horror film. Entertaining as all hell.

Another good one with the same kind of feel is "Rawhead Rex" ever seen it? Its a gem and have some pretty odd ball creepy parts, def... worth a watch...

Rawhead Rex was entertaining, but in my books not really in the same league as Xtro. Xtro just happens to get everything right in the same movie, if you know what I mean. Rawhide is worth a watch, though.

Yeah i agree, i haven't seen Xtro in years, i should grab me a copy for ole times sake. I watch all the RLM stuff. I have loved those guys for years. Started with the Star Trek and Star Wars Plinkitt Reviews and then they did a few movies and other shows. I am glad they stay busy and make just enough money to keep doing stuff. I find their material very entertaining... Yeah Rex is decent. Its got a lot of good things in it. You are right its not in the same class but more like, "if you Love Xtro, Rawhead Rex should be watched." It has the same level of oddness and cheese. I remember when the kid gets killed and it freaked me out as a kid but then way the beast pisses in the pasture's face that was hilarious....

First time I heard about this was Cinemassacre's review. He also talked about sequels, I think.

Also, Cinema Snob did Xtro too. This is like Robot Jox, many have reviewed it too (Cinema Snob, Cinemassacre, Scifi Guy).
