Most of this derivative film is just a standard monster-in-the-basement horror flick that has been done much better in the past. The setting is also a horror mainstay: a remote house in the mountains. Since this was made at the height of the early 80s slasher phenomenon, you've got dumb teenagers obsessed with sex being picked off one-by-one. The monsters are not seen until the end, basically dog-sized muppets with teeth, tentacles and claws. We get absolutely no explanation of their origin or purpose. The best actor in the movie is a poodle.
