Explorer from Another World

An absolute blast! Explorer from Another World is a brilliant B-movie gem!!! Imagine today's Terrifier colliding head-on with '80s cult classics. It's silly, it's gory, but the kind of over-the-top, playful gore that fans of Evil Dead, chopping mall, Re-Animator etc.. will love. It's not taking itself too seriously all, with some funny moments, and that's exactly what makes it so fun. Just an all-round entertaining short film, actually wished it lasted a little longer. A must-watch for fans of retro horror and indie madness. Can't wait to see what they've got lined up next! Great job!!!! 9/10 all day!!!!

It was a fun movie! Not great by any means but who doesn't want a campy, wacky, cheesy comedic horror flick on a Friday night? Grab your beer(s) load up the popcorn and take this wild crazy ride into 1960's sci-fi fantasy. Albeit the acting was a little raw and the wigs were out there. Looking forward to a sequel!!

This was just the cheesy horror camp that I love. From the ridiculous hair, to the 60s era stilted dialogue and acting, and over the top gore, to the elongated credits this was a really fun ride. If you like movies like Fido or any John Waters style film you'll enjoy this short movie.

It opens with a young man hanging out with his baby sister on a Friday night. His friends sneak in and they all head out through his bedroom window into the night. Meanwhile an alien explorer arrives and wreaks havoc on the town in true grindhouse-gore fashion. The protagonist prevails in more ways than one in the end. This was truly a quirky romp to enjoy.

At 41 minutes run time, just about right. It was the little touches that really set this apart. It was a Woody Edwards film (Ed Wood, anyone?) The flying saucers were saucers. Sputnik was circling the globe. There was stilted dialogue, and the professor was a perfect stereotype. Atrocious wig, always puffing on his pipe as he thought or considered action. And of course they had the town drunk in the cell after he reported what he saw. And a two person sheriff's office. The deaths were accompanied by copious amounts of spurting blood. This could have been lifted right out of the 1960's B-movie can. This movie knew what it wanted to be and nailed it.

This movie features a strong start in direction, cinematography and art additives.

Sadly, those parts are inconsistent but you can see it pop back in frequently enough and this movie really shines for whatever the hell it's trying to do in those moments. This doesn't take away from how fun the movie is AT All though.

This would have been wonderful to see fleshed out another 20-30 pages buuuuut only if the alien got slightly rewritten.

Its a well worth fun romp that I'd love to see remade, preferably with all the same cast and such but yeah. Overall, middling.

Do not like the ending, if that's a sequel set up scrap it. This being so grounded and intimate really helped the campy vibe.
