Biggest Swing

The film drops significantly from the beloved mall shopping sequence to the generic underground laboratory plot.

Night of the Comet starts strong with atmospheric post-apocalyptic imagery and peaks during its iconic 1980s mall shopping sequence that perfectly captures the film's campy tone. The sentiment declines notably during the conventional scientist villain plot before recovering with a clever ending that rewards attentive viewers.
