'The Terror Within' (1988) – Theirry Notz.

Ably produced by prodigiously talented B-Movie Tzar Roger Corman, The Terror Within is a rumbustious post-apocalyptic, splatter-spectacular! Not unlike fellow cellar-dwelling dystopian fromage-fest 'Creepozoids', this is one of the superior bargain-basement, blood-basted subterranean Sci-shockers! Civilisation all but wiped out by a genocidal super-virus, the remaining vestiges of humanity work within reinforced subterranean bunkers, while 'things'  start hotting up in the arid wasteland above! These grossly mutated, ghoulish-looking gargoyles are no longer content to forage above ground in the sun-bleached Mojave Desert, they breach the security of the survivor's far from impenetrable bunker! Fatefully penetrating one of the Mojave crew, and it is not long thereafter that leader Hal (George Kennedy) breaks out the LASER WEAPONS, and flamethrowers in a courageous attempt to destroy 'The Terror Within'!

The clearly gifted director works nigh on miracles with such a meagre budget, Thierry Notz is seemingly blessed with an alchemical ability to turn base celluloid into blood-burnished B-Movie gold! Robustly supported by a lively, talented cast, featuring a suitably steely, heroic turn by handsome Alpha dude, Andrew Stephens. There's an effectively moody score, some spectacularly splashy FX, and the monstrously malign, man-hunting mutant remains a joy to behold! In a multitude of gore-ious ways, Theirry Notz's exemplary 80s Sci-splatter 'The Terror Within' is a winning example of how you can get a bigger bang from your miniscule B-Movie buck, just by effectively utilizing a truly killer-looking monster!
