Night of the Cometis the very definition of a cult horror movie.

The film centers on a southern California city preparing to witness a comet cross overhead just days before Christmas.

When the moment comes,nearly everyone is turned to dust, with others becoming zombified monsters.

They must survive the zombies, violent other survivors, and government scientists with bad intentions.

Even if it ain’t broke, you’ve got the option to still fix it!

This doesn’t mean thatNight of the Cometisn’t well-made or has no stakes.

Most impressive might be the cinematography, especially in outside shots.
