Title: Monster movie from the 80's
Post by: Flemming on January 05, 2008, 10:20:59 AM

Hi!

After quick help from you guys finding out about 'Starship Invasions', I hope you can help
me again with another one...

This one is a monstermovie from the early 80's (I guess) and a movie I did not see because
I didn't dare as a kid. The only memory I got from the movie is the movieposter:
Monsters who show up/attack some sportsguys at a baseball/american football arena!
I think they looked a bit like the fish-monsters from 'Humanoids from the Deep', but it is not
that movie, as far as I can tell.
I have not seen the movieposter anywhere since, so I have no idea of the title or if I remember correctly...

Anyone seen this movie or the poster?

Very random association here, but the film most like "Humanoids from the Deep" is "Screamers" from 1979. That film does include an underwater city (Atlantis, I believe). I have not seen a poster like you describe for "Screamers," but perhaps you saw a poster that showed the underwater city and the monsters. The ruins were Greek or Roman in design.

Hi,
Cool monsters!

However I'm sure that the poster I saw had some sort of american football player(s) attacked by a monster(s),
at night with stadium spotlights and a green field. But the poster could be misleading to the movieplot I guess...

Is that the one of MYTH where Skeeve and Co. battle the Jahks for their trophy? I forgot which book it was. The MYTH series is a great series of books.

It could be "Nightmare Beach", that had an American football player in it;
