NIGHT OF THE COMET (1984) ¢ ¢ 1/2

Mary Woronov, Geoffrey Lewis, Sharon Farrell
When an apocalyptic event reduces most of humanity to murderous zombies or dust on the sidewalk, two teenaged girls survive with their shopping habits, fabulous hair and unlikely commando skills intact. It's the end of the world, but they're alive. Good thing they know how to handle an automatic weapon. A sci-fi zombie comedy with enough going on in it to keep you amused for an hour and a half, and probably not much more. Mary Woronov as a no-nonsense medic is the best thing in it and deserves more screen time. Original title: "Teenage Mutant Horror Comet Zombies".
