This movie is so horrible that I've made every one of my friends watch it. So as of this point in time i've watched this movie eleven times, i'm sure that's more than anyone else on this whole planet. Including Mark Polonia himself. I'm starting to think of those little pumpkin monsters as my only real friends. But seriously as a person who has watched this movie as many times as me i warn you, DO NOT WASTE YOUR LIFE LIKE I HAVE. All i know is my dog has more acting skills than half the cast. Although i really like how dinosaurs and Jesus are mentioned in the same speech, well i think that's what the monster said because you can't understand it. Long live the Polonia brothers!

Pathetic Beyond Belief

NIGHT CRAWLERS is a zero-budget shot-on-video horror flick with a cast that can be counted on one hand. A friend of mine purchased it in a bargain horror-anthology called "The Spawn of Satan". That title wound up having nothing to do with this or the other three horribly cheap horror moves contained in the set.
The plot to NIGHT CRAWLERS has a family moving into a suspiciously inexpensive house in a town in Utah. They are soon attacked by the "Night Crawlers", ground-dwelling paper mache monsters with four drawn-on eyes and antennea. A lot of fake blood sprays about. The obviously non-professional cast stumbles over cliche horror dialogue (minus the swearing, this is Utah). There are really bad computer graphics as well. The monsters explain in a barely intelligible voice about how they are from another planet and have lived on Earth for centuries. This amazing twist hardly proves relevant since it's just a typical (if atypically cheap) scare fest. Mercifully, it only lasts about an hour.
I'm not sure if it's fair to compare this on a scale with real movies that actually had funding and actors, but I still call NIGHT CRAWLERS one of the worst movies ever made. Even if they did get money for this, the writing and directing are pathetic. This is yet another made-for-video effort that isn't worth discovering.

God Awful...

A family moves into a new home, only to be besieged by the titular creatures.
In a movie like NIGHT CRAWLERS, it's all about the monsters. Well, the budget for this shot-on-video "movie" is so low that the monsters amount to homemade, papier-mache dolls. So, unless you have an unnatural fear of pinatas, there's nothing to see here.
The only aspects that are worse than the ridiculous monsters are the cadaver-like acting and terrible dialogue.
A true exercise in misery...
