Trooper8-2

I had read about how dumb this movie was before seeing it, but it was even sillier than I expected. Don't get me wrong, I like bad, sleazy horror very much, but this was a little too stupid. The Driller Killer's song-and-dance number has to be one of the lamest moments ever captured on film. To make matters worse, only one girl in this movie gets naked, and she's not even very attractive. One of the other girls was a former playboy playmate, and she keeps her clothes on the whole time! What a waste. I have also seen part 3 of this series and I found it to be much better. This might be a good movie to laugh at, but don't bother if you want good horror film.

This has to be, hands down, the cheapest movie I have ever seen. They couldn't have spent $50 on this turkey. The computer effects look like an Atari 2600 game and the alien creatures look like sock puppets. I found it amusing that the puppet-aliens were always eating people even though they did not appear to have mouths. Fans of really bad movies will probably enjoy this, as I sort of did, but everyone else is advised to stay far away.

If you are a fan of the fantasy genre, you will probably enjoy this film. The plot is typical "rescue the princess" fare, but the characters are interesting and the special effects aren't bad for the time. All in all, a very good fantasy effort that isn't the most original but is certainly entertaining.
