Hopelessly awful B-movie horror flick. Blatantly shot in the UK but featuring lame American accents, it's set in a girl's college (uh-oh) which, needless to say, means there's going to be at least one scene of naked nubiles in the shower - and, oops, there it went. And that's yer lot for the rest of the film, Mister Raincoat. To fill up the rest of the time, there's a rubber monster covered in squelchy goo that appears to want to coat the girlies in marzipan (at least, I _think_ it's marzipan); a not even comically inept but fortunately swiftly-massacred SWAT team; Oliver Tobias as a detective (his presence onscreen is always a sign that you've rented a Turkey) and a final scene in an oil refinery which, despite the efforts of an under-budgeted special effects team, is quite obviously not blowing up. Even the terminally bored/sexually frustrated are advised not to touch this waste of time with a ten-foot pole.
The irony is, Samantha Janus is a fine comedienne. We can only assume that she did this for the exposure, cause that's what they gave her. Indecent at that.

Okay, so the only reason I rented this flick was because the box at the video store had a cool picture of a monster on the front and the back had some cute chick being terrorized by said monster. But it was entertaining enough. Cheesy acting and a plot that doesn't make a whole lot of sense aren't the only qualities of this movie. It also has a shower scene in an all girls college! What more do you want?
In conclusion, rent this for a good time. Laugh with your friends at the horribly low-budget explosions, and cheer for the half naked women.

What a movie! Shot in Britain but with very poor American accents! A take on a few other alien type movies for sure.
It had its moments but not many and the special effects where not that great.
In saying that, I did watch it and something made me want to watch it otherwise I would have switched off as I have done with other truly horrendous movies.
If you like b-movies (and I kinda do) then you might like it.
If you don't then you don't.
Anyway, I've definitely seen far worse but I don't think I'd give it a second outing.
I think they spent the budget on the alien design and costume!
Ya'll take care now!

What a great looking monster when its not moving and computerised to look menacing, shame that when it appears it made Plan 9 look convincing. Samantha Janus must have accepted alot of money for this rubbish, only redeeming feature is the space warrior woman. Watch and laugh and then cry when you realise its longer than 10 minutes.
If you are going to have a gruesome beast like the one pictured on the cover of the DVD, don't have so many supporting actresses and actors that are pure idiots. The beast was seen here and there and was very vague. It was set in an all girls college, so why was a man the leading actor and the so called hero of everyone. The B in B horror on this one would be bore......Don't like the DVD, so you can buy it from me and see for yourself.......Why did they put this on DVD anyway?
