Viewing Notes

Not sure why it took me this long to see this splendid & terrifyingly great alien-monster flick but hot damn I could watch it again right now! Xtro (1983) is quite a masterful b-movie by Harry Bromley Davenport that in no way would ever be considered a “good” film but that’s really not the point, right? It’s enjoyable for what it does deliver. And it delivers a helluva good time. Really want to see the sequel.
