Trivia

Terrence Mann's appearance as Ug is credited in the movie's end credits before he has even appeared in the movie. He only makes a short appearance in a scene running during the end credits, which ties the actions of this movie with the sequel Critters 4 (1992). See more »

Goofs

Notice when Annie is shielding herself with the sign that reads "Outa Order" from the Critters shooting their spines at her. Charlie comes in and blows one of the Critters away causing its green goo blood to spray all over the sign. In the next scene Annie is shown holding the sign but now it's totally clean. See more »

Quotes

Josh: Hi.
Annie: How are you?

Another Mediocre Entry in the Critters Franchise
13 October 2014 | by (Canada) – See all my reviews

David J Schow who wrote screenplays for A Nightmare on Elm Street Part 5: The Dream Child and Leatherface: The Texas Chainsaw Massacre III describes his style as 'splatterpunk'. It's a term he coined for himself. I describe him as the 'hack' who wrote Critters 3 and 4. A family traveling through the critters infested town of Grover's Bend are warned by a strange man (series staple Charlie played by Don Keith Opper) to clear out but not before crite eggs have attached themselves to the bottom of the car which is headed back to the city. Soon the tenement is swarming with the deadly Gremlin wannabes. Future star Leonardo DiCaprio made his film debut in this sub par horror adventure.
