WELCOME TO NIGHTOFTHECOMET.INFO
THE ULTIMATE FAN SITE FOR NIGHT OF THE COMET
I love Night of the Comet (1984). It's just so... Eighties! Teenagers with attitude - check; big hair and shoulder pads - check; keyboard-heavy soundtrack - check; cheesy dance scene - check. Nuff said.
I have made this site in an effort to collect together as much information about the film as I can find. My hope is that: if you need to know anything about Night of the Comet, you should be able to find it here.
