Once considered a joke but thanks to Boy eats girl and Shrooms it not as bad as its reputation. In fact it's quite entertaining and scary in parts. What really works is the monster appearing in daylight. Like most Irish genre movies from the '80s this one was set and filmed in Wicklow. An ancient god is summoned and kills people. Extremely watchable and enjoyable movie (which is not often said about Irish horror!).
