Old Horror Movie

[hanguker]

Hey guys,

Great forum topic.

I got a movie for you. This movie takes place in a country area. I saw it as a kid...so probably from the 80's. I believe the monster is an alien. It is in the forest of course. It "shoots" little ninja-star-looking things. These "things" are alive and attach themeselves to peoples necks and whatnot, consequently killing them...I can't remember what else...I remember it really scared me as a kid. I'd like to see it again...

Good Luck,

Sincerely,
Han

oops...sorry this should be in the "lost and found" section...

Is it Phantasm 1979?

[tarzan]

its not phantasm,i remeber this movie but can't for the life of me remeber the name or plot just that little ninja star thing
it was being hunted by other aliens wasnt it?

[hanguker]

Nope, not Phantasm. I know that one very well. These things that the alien from the woods throws are fleshy and look like ninja-stars. The spokes on the "star" are claws in this case, which hook into the flesh. The creature is has a mouth at the bottom (attached to the skin), which feeds. Sorry, this one is kinda hard...could be from the 70's...

Tarzan: I can't for the life of me remember if it was being hunted by other aliens...maybe though...

oh welcome to the boards hehe nice start.
this question is gonna bug me till i find it out cause i saw this movie on cinemax on night about 15 years ago i think
i though it came out about the same time as phantasm and critters though i suspect it is as early as 1979.

hmm.... i know wat a really good horror movie was when i was like 5. i saw that pirana movie (can't spell, but i'm talking about the flesh eating fish from SA)... anyways, it's like really old, and i was so scared, i thought the fish in my fish tank would jump out and eat me. then, i was afraid to go home, cuz i thought that the room will like be full of water, and the fish would eat me. i was like 5 or 4 when i saw it. lol
