The Terror Within (1989)

★★1/2

Set in a post-apocalyptic world destroyed by an unknown chemical accident, a group of underground military survivors take in a woman who appears to be alive despite living above the ground. Things turn from bright to dark when her mutant baby kills her and escapes to somewhere in the compound. With the mutant growing at a fast rate, the crew must find a way to stop it before it gets hungry with its eyes set on the crewmembers. Produced by Mr. Schlock Roger Corman, this flick is bad but not in all cases. The creature design is great and it has that distinct midnight movie feel as you watch it. It may be bad but it’s the good type of bad and by the end of it you can’t help but say, “they really don’t make them like they use to.”
