Viewing Notes

I rarely watch a sequel before watching the original, but since this was part of Sci-Fi Spectacular, it happened. I’d never seen any of the Critters films before, and after watching this one, I’m going to rectify that by watching Critters soon.

The best part of this showing was the Q&A with director Mick Garris afterwards. He is an amazingly prolific and gifted director, very down to earth, and provided a LOT of insight into the making of Critters 2 and the filmmaking process in general.

This was one of the unexpected highlights of the Spectacular for me.
