Oh god I saw this like 10 years ago and its been stuck in my head ever since. Now I finally know the title!

There is something about this movie that I just like!  I saw it one afternoon a few years ago on Sci Fi Channel and ended up buying a crappy used copy over the internet.  It would cost too much to return so I still have it.  Viewable...but...  Maybe a DVD will come out soon.  But it takes me back to when I used to stay up late watching horror movies as a child.  Anything with Graham in it is going to be good!  He does these things like nobody else.  Phantom of Paradise...  They should've gotten him for the shower scene in the Mystery Science Theater Movie!

I remember watching TerrorVision years ago on the Sci-Fi channel. Back then, I didn't give two craps about the flick, but it has been stuck in my mind ever since. That theme song, how can any human being forget it? Of course, I wouldn't call the movie "good", but it entertains on some basic, primal level. It's one of those "so-bad-it's-good" movies just like Commando and Tammy and the T-Rex. The gore flowed pretty good, considering it was an edited version. If I could rent TerrorVision or see it again, I'd definitely watch it. The only thing this B-movie is missing is a nude scene with Medusa and Cherry. Now that is something I'd love to see.

This was my first b-grade movie buy. Got it for $3 when I was 15 from the video store bargain bin.
I remember thinking that I could rent a video for $3 or buy one for $3.

I grew up watching 80's movies,sadly I can't seem to remember this one.But maybe if I see it i'll remember it.All I know is Diane Franklin
is one of the 80's hottest actress to grace the
screen!

I love this movie, its an 80's classic.
I'm glad I got this off Ebay. I want that theme song right now!  Its so catchy.  :)

ok, since almost every review includes a comment about the music, I thought I'd mention the group (that's The Fibonaccis) who did the theme as well four other songs on the soundtrack (all of side one!)...they have a best of collection on cd that does feature the song "TerrorVision"...if you like that song, you might dig them, the review on Amazon compares they to Devo & Calexico, but I'd throw in Combustible Edison as well (the review on there give a much better description if yr interested)...they're pretty quirky & definitely not for everyone, but they do have used copies startin' at like $3.38...and for fellow obsessive fans of Mary Woronov & Robert Beltran, there's also an odd connection, as The Fibonaccis were featured on the soundtrack of the RB film Slam Dance...

An extremely underrated, super fun 80's B film. E-mail me if you're interested in a really nice VHS quality print on DVD-R and thanks for the memories.

I think this is the greatest b-movie of all time! Me and my friends have watched this sucker so many times, there are sooo many memorable quotes and scenes... The wierd thing is tho, is that I always thought this movie would have been better off WITHOUT the monster. The cast of characters is so goofy and off the wall, perfect material for a sitcom (as a matter of fact, the cast bears an uncanny resemplance to that tv show SOAP). They need to hurry up and release this movie on DVD, my VHS copy has seen better days (I got it new about 10 years ago, it's pretty wore out now.) I picked up an original huge subway size movie poster from the films theatrical release (unused and in perfect condition) on ebay, I can hardly wait to get a place with a wall large enough to display it..! If anyone wants a copy of the soundtrack on CD, contact me. I am open for trades.

I loved this crazy movie I saw it back in the late 80's and I am steal looking for the DVD.One of the funniest B movies from the 80's era.The scene where MEDUSA mistakes the good alien for the monster was priceless and the  theme song ruled.loved that MEDUSA chick she was the most beautiful thing I ever saw in a B movie snakes and all.

Seen this movie almost 20 years ago. I couldn't get the theme song out of my head. I want this movie... right now.

Does anyone know the name of that song at the end?  I cant get it out of my head and the only cure is to download and listen to it.  I know, the cure sounds worse than the disease but still...

Just recorded TerrorVision from MGM-HD channel which is now available on DirecTV and DISH Network. Yeah, it's basically bad, but it's a very good bad movie... :thumbup:
