The cult movie, released in 1986 , still manages to entertain.

Despite a few establishing shots of the famous bridge, Neon Maniacs appears to have been shot almost entirely in Los Angeles .

The title stars have a lot of potential, which unfortunately goes unexplored.

There’s a pretty silly plot that doesn’t hit many curveballs.

Neon Maniacs is a surprisingly agreeable oddity well worthy of its cult status.

The Paula character elevates it into that meta category of “monster movies featuring characters who love monster movies” There’s a certain goofiness that goes along with hideous creatures who can’t withstand water.
