After fear… beyond terror… there is The Dark! Director John ‘Bud’ Cardos (Kingdom of the Spiders) throws everything and the kitchen sink into his wild, totally bonkers grindhouse mix of serial killer thriller, zombie flick and outer space menace about an alien invader stalking the streets of Los Angeles, shooting laser beams from his eyes and ripping the heads off his victims. Out to stop it are Rolling Thunder’s William Devane as a vengeful father, tv vet Cathy Lee Crosby as an intrepid reporter and character actor legend Richard Jaeckel as a cop. Casey Kasem shows up, too, in this Dick Clark produced mindbender.
Marc Edward Heuck discusses The Dark on the New Beverly blog.
