I like creature features and body horror, especially when put in the backdrop of space or if the creature is extraterrestrial.

Color Out of Space was a cool bit of both. But I also like stuff like Alien/Aliens, Event Horizon, The Thing, and Ghosts of Mars. These are the best examples. Most of the movies that fit this pretty narrow scope are cheesy and more funny than terrifying. Horror is already pretty campy, as is sci-fi. You mix the two and it's just a mess. Although without it, you wouldn't get goofy shit like Jason X. lol

I just watched Slither for the first time recently, and it fits this perfectly. It was a great fun campy movie. Highly recommend if you haven't seen it.
