    I love it *because* it's trash.

    I love this movie very much. It should be enjoyed with plenty of alcohol (spirits for preference) and a few witty friends who enjoy making up porno dialogue. It was my sister who pointed out that the lighting and the odd grainy/cloudy look of the film (video?) were exactly like what one sees in late-night soft-porn TV shows like 'The Click' and 'Red Shoe Diaries' (don't look at me, *she's* the one who likes them) and we just went off from there. It should be noted that 'Star Hunter' is complete and utter tripe. No- one in it can act except Roddy McDowell and the stoner guy. There is no sense of pace or suspense whatsoever; we are told at the very beginning (with Star Wars-style scrolling text - or, for Sailor Moon fans, 'From a far away place and time Earth's greatest adventure is about to begin') who the aliens are and what they're up to. The characters are perhaps zero point five dimensional. There is so much that is so cool in an incredibly BAAAAAD way. Like the alien dude with Vulcan ears and a Klingon forehead. And> the device for foiling the hunter using string and tinfoil. And Cooper's origami bird. Actually the origami bird was sort of nifty. A stupid movie which smart people can enjoy very much, if they're in the right mood.

    HA HA HA!!!

    Heheheheeee! This movie is soooo bad it's good! It's so funny! One time, this guy turns to his friends and says, "Guys, I think we're in the hood." It's so funny cause the way he says it, he sounds like he's giving his son a talk about sex! The movie's about these dumb high school kids with their even dumber bus driver (she doesn't even know where their High School is!!!) who get lost in "THE HOOD!" They meet this weird guy with white hair and huge sun glasses who collects people's heads. He tells them to go hide so he can play a game, and then this one guy who looks like the Predator's inbred relative suits up and tries to kill everyone. Some great parts are when the bus driver gets shot and some blood pops up on her face, but there's no wound! Another is the first time the Star Hunter is shot, he explodes; next shot, he's just fine! Plus, every time he's shot after that they show the same scene of him grabbing his left shoulder! The best part: the little robot at the beginning!

    MST3K fans won't want to miss this one.

    Almost good... a good student movie for a new director

    This movie I have seen maybe twice and it is a very serviceable B movie or an Indie movie that was made for direct-to-DVD movie.

    The script is all over the place with padding. Movie is 90 minutes long, it could have been shortened to 60.

    But to be honest, this movie is pretty good if you consider it as an indie movie made by a new Jameds Cameron or John Mctierman or Ridley Scott. The cinematographer actually did a pretty okay job with it.

    So yeah, I gave it a 4 because it was almost good. I think if they had another couple of rewrites and a clearer vision it could have been a decent movie. And consider that every great scifi director or writer started like this, has anyone seen the first movie of Ridley Scott or James Cameron? I guarantee you that they are not The Terminator or Alien quality. Better to learn in Indie movie how to write and direct to make a blockbuster movie.

    My God, this is lame!

    The makers of this film should be ashamed of themselves! These really stupid kids are being hunted by a slow, noisy and easily confused robot who can't make a single decision with out calling Roddy McDowall on a palm pilot. Fortunately for the kids, one of them has been taken over by an alien sent to help them. Unfortunately, it doesn't do anything. This movie is filled with bad dialogue, dumb characters, VERY oddly placed items (like a rifle on the ground outside a Police station). Like good special effects? Don't look here.

    worst film of the year 1995

    i retrieved this films DVD about 2 days ago from supermarket good sale for my every after Friday hangover.

    glad i did watch it today cos i didn't waste my time so much.. this film has uncountable glitches and numerous flaw's and most surprising thing is that they even didn't hide those i mean in other awful movies they actually try to hide mistakes and stuff like that.

    Graphic and quality is under any level of mention, when i started to watch i thought that there's a mistake and its not DVD but CD.. after checking i realized its the movie its self so inequality... Special effects are just a joke.. a eye cutting kind of joke.

    at first i toughed that 1.5 Eur's for that film is cheap but after watching it i was like god damn why dint i buy 2 beers or pack of smoke instead..

    but there's 1 positive thing about my DVD... subtitles were extremely wrong...first 10 minutes it was fun then after 15 minutes it was annoying and after 20 minutes i turned subtitles off.

    a real pearl for my B-category crap movies collection.
