This uproariously bad sci-fi horror oddity plays like a modern version of a cheesy '50s alien invasion flick, only not as clever. The filmmakers deserve some credit for throwing everything but the kitchen sink into the plot (and perhaps even the sink's in there somewhere), which involves the diabolical plans of three silver-suited aliens, played by -- ready for this? -- John Carradine, Julie Newmar (TV's Catwoman), and Tina Louise (Ginger from Gilligan's Island), who hire a couple of drunken wrench jockeys (Neville Brand and Aldo Ray) to help them abduct a bunch of lame-brained teenage campers for use in the production of a youth-restoring serum. This allows for endless riffing on the Friday the 13th scenario, as over-sexed teens are stalked by ski-masked Brand and Ray. B-movie fans should be forewarned that this film's once-in-a-lifetime acting ensemble does virtually nothing to enhance the negligible entertainment value. ~ Cavett Binion, All Movie Guide

Kim Stanley, who gave an impressive performance as a phony fortune teller in the 1964 film Seance on a Wet Afternoon, is equally persuasive as a genuine psychic in this Quincy M.E. episode. In their search for a serial killer of teenage girls, the authorities enlist the aid of psychic Edith Jordan, whose "track record" of helping solve previous crimes is an impressive one. Even so, the ever-pragmatic Quincy (Jack Klugman) is skeptical of Mrs. Jordan's paranormal skills. By the time Quincy is convinced that Edith is the genuine article, so is the elusive killer--who plans to add the woman to his list of victims. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide

If he wants to escort the (latest) girl of his dreams to the school Valentine's Day dance, Tommy (Philip McKeon) must get hold of a tuxedo. Of course, this requires money, and Tommy has next to none of that commodity. Alice (Linda Lavin) and the girls join forces to help the boy get his wish--and then disaster befalls both Tommy and tux. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide
