I was too very happy to see it on Netflix. Now they just have to toss the original in their streaming too, because I haven't seen that in like 10 years.
Funny thing is I don't remember how I saw it when I was a kid. It's possible my family and I watched it on tv or rented it from the local video store.
It's funny how now as I look back, I watched all these PG films that many people think today weren't suitable for a 6 year old, but I loved them. Maybe it's made me more prone to nightmares, but it's not a big deal. I just am one of those people that love horror movies, so nightmares are kinda fun.

It's fantastic.
I was watching it on there and just realized the high energy theme music, like when the soldiers invade the alien nest, is like one note off from a chunk of Jerry Goldsmith's Rambo 2 score. Gotta love the 80s.

OMG! I discovered this movie on WPIX back in the 90's! I first seen it on the 8 pm movie. Those were the days, huh? Lol
