5.0 out of 5 stars The best B movie ever made 29 Jun 2007
Format:DVD|Amazon Verified Purchase
I think Mr. Dunn has lost the point about Night of the Comet. NOTC doesnt take itself seriously, it doesnt need too. It has presented a modern day take of all those B movies from the 50's with over the top monsters / villians / leads.
The two leads are superb in their roles, they seem to relish they are playing a couple of airheads, and act the part accordingly. How can you not love a Mac 10 toting cheerleader who is more concerned with the country music playing in the car, than the zombies about to mutilate her outside.
If the movie had taken a more serious note, this film wouldnt have been so much fun to watch, to see the zero budget special effects, to listen to the cheesy 80's songs, and as for the end, yes it all kind of neatly plays out, but sometimes you dont need a severed head in a box to make a film work. Plus isnt it nice to know that DMK was one of the survivors too.
Enjoy the film folks, since although it may not be 28 days later, it works just fine.

4.0 out of 5 stars Wonderfully Camp 80s fare. 7 Mar 2010
Format:DVD
Night of the Comet is a guilty pleasure of mine. If you have seen any of the Living Dead movies or any of the 1950s alien movies then you have seen the premise of this movie before. That is not meant as a criticism. The acting is pretty bad to the point of being funny and some of the lines are unbelievable!. However as a guilty pleasure, you can't do much better than night of the comet. This science fiction/horror film was set in a post-apocalyptic wasteland, where the only survivors are two teenage girls who are more concerned about shopping and boys then the end of the world or the zombies roaming the streets of L.A. The film was fun and also had some nice comedic moments as well, it's also typically 80's with the fashion and bad hair and cheesy 80's music, those who grew up during the 80's might remember that annoying Cindy Lauper song which gets played in this film. Anyway, the film was about these two sisters who wake up one morning to blood red skies and the realization that the human race has been wiped out. It becomes apparent that anyone who was not surrounded by steel when the Earth recently passed through the tail of Haley's comet has been reduced to a pile of red ash. They encounter a truck driver and take over the air waves at a local radio station in an attempt to get help but attract the attention of a group of scientists who knew of the comet and waiting to find survivors. They hid underground in a steel laboratory, but left the vents open. Now, as various survivors of the comet who were only partially surrounded by steel are decaying into flesh-hungry zombies, the scientists are attempting to create a vaccine made of the blood of people who were not infected by the comet while saving themselves at the same time. This film never takes itself seriously and was a fun low budget sci/fi film, there was no gore or blood but it still managed to be entertaining with an amusing plot, I highly recommend this.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent B Movie 'Horror' 15 Aug 2008
By Lacky83
Format:DVD
Catherine Mary Stewart & Kelli Maroney are well cast to play air-head shoppers in this B-Movie 'Horror'. I say 'horror' as this film is not quite a horror as it was intended (or I assume it was), but more of a science fiction movie with some horro and comedy thrown in. There are a few jumpy scenes and a few tiny little scares in there, but this is not a full blown horror movie. Considering it's age the zombie make up is pretty good as well, which is an added bonus for such an old B-Movie. An excellent science fiction movie - shame it's never had a UK region 2 release.
