Synopsis
Three teenagers vacationing in Spain drive through a town where the space station Skylab crashed several years earlier, bringing with it alien organisms that transform their human hosts into flesh-eating monsters.
Trivia
- The film was shot throughout Spain in May and June 1984, but not released until 1987.
- Production during the movie caused producer Carlos Aured to completely retire from filmmaking. In a 1999 interview with Fangoria, Aured mentioned that he tried several times to get the filmmakers to take a more professional approach to the film, but the crew was too laid back. As a result, the film went over schedule and over budget, from which they heaped all the debts onto Aured, once filming was complete.

gollark: I would add more, but the one for 1000 was too long.
gollark: It is the product of the first 100 primes, so it has many, many factors.
