Inhumanoid

I can think of nothing better to describe this movie than when the IMDb suggested watching "Alien³" if I "liked this movie". Apt characterization...

Awful special effects, awful plot, sub-par acting (though Lara Harris is appealing), cinematic "no-nos" involving the cute kid... I've seen student films that were better. The best thing that could be said about this movie is that it doesn't look like anyone (actors, or crew) took it too seriously.

That said, it's a perfect choice for any "bad movies night" where you and your friends want to sit around and MST3K a movie. So bad, it's good... sort of...

Being a fan of Greico on 21 Jump Street and If Looks Could Kill I found this direct-to-video on the shelf at the local video store. Greico is some sort of malfunctioning killer android in it. Not too much else to report on it other than it violates one of the big rules of movies with a scene where Greico puts a young girl in a trash compactor. Pass on this video stinker and watch something far more entertaining - like a test pattern.

This film is cheap, tacky, and inconsistent. It has no discernible direction, and violates nearly every rule of good entertainment. It is also boring; the worst sin of all. The special effects are definitely not special; or even excusable. The editing is confusing, but then so is the premise of this film-making felony. And please; Richard Grieco fans should never see this film. He is bloated, expressionless and and impossibly awful.

However, I was attracted to the acting and persona of Lara Harris. She did an excellent job with her role, and almost salvaged the film for me, in her near-solo performance. She is also quite beautiful and sensual. So if you wake up from your afternoon nap, find yourself lashed to your recliner, your remote just out of reach, and this god-awful mess is playing; don't panic. Just enjoy Lara and remember; laughter is the best revenge.

"lets get this". It was the only Sci-fi movie with an R rating. We watched and cringed. First of all there is a lego space ship then there is a woman having sex with the lion from wizard of Oz, or was it the old costume from American werewolf. Then the guy from 21 jump street is putting a little girl in the garbge disposal. Then there is lots and lots of killing then more sex then killing. And that is pretty much it, and oh yeah in between killing and sex there is terrible acting. I think the R rating is for the acting.

I thought of Dead Calm in space when I saw this film, but just not done as well. There's no atmosphere, the way the film is shot seems like a camera was just thrown up and had people acting in front of it. Roger Corman is famous for cheap movies and crappy looking films so it's not much of a surprise. I can't say there's any really redeeming aspect to the film.
