Hip horror movie which, when not too wrapped up in tracking down an overgrown reptile, throws in some cinematic "in" jokes ("Harry Lime Lives" scrawled on a sewer wall) and some digs at industrial research, rich people, and male chauvinism (Henry Silva, nice to see, as a Great White Hunter). Robert Forster proves himself to be a good sport by putting up with a number of rather cheeky remarks about his thinning hair. Written by John Sayles; directed by Lewis Teague. (1980) — Duncan Shepherd
