Xtro (1982) ***1/2

Xtro (1982) is a bizarre, gross, hilarious, fun and dramatic low budget horror/sci-fi/schlockfest. Adult human birth, toys that come to life, mind control, nudity,  gory effects, a trippy synth score—Xtro ticks all the 80s b-movie boxes and then some.

For fans of David Cronenberg, Frank Henenlotter, and Roger Corman.
