    an ode to low budget sci-fi

    This is something special. And by that fact there are some confusions going on about it. For me it was some kind of ode to the drive-in grindhouse sci-fi from the sixties. The clothes they used are simple and reminded me to that era. The acting was terrible by some but I guess again that it was supposed to be that way. On the other hand, nothing really happens until the last part of this flick. There is a lot of talking and some jokes in it but once the creature goes berserk the gore comes in. The creature itself is just a man in a suit, again an ode to the fifties and sixties. The gore effects are really well done and somehow reminded me of Alien 2 sulla terra and Contamination bought made in 1980. Those flicks were also full of blah blah and even were a bit boring but they had a status due the gore used. Of course it couldn't be made without nudity and you will get some gratuitous nudity. This really isn't a flick for everyone but just see it as a joke and watch it with a beer in one hand, you will enjoy it then

    A 1950's heist film and sci-film rolled into one

    We've all seen or been forced to watch one of those 1950's bubble helmeted d sci-fi adventures which took place in the caverns of the planet Amazonian With the cast of characters a debonair leading man, a kid from the country and some tough speak guy from Brooklyn and maybe a black crew member named Lincoln Hamilton who says yowzer a lot. They bumble around the planet device away they can survive without their cumbersome helmets and free the oppressed masses of that flying rock. Well not this Roger Cormanesque adventure, an alien skeleton is found by an alien mining team, and everybody spends the rest of the movie back biting and double-crossing each other not to mention the skeleton has friends and babies. And there were actually some jokes some one liners in here.

    Oh dear.

    Where to start with this?.

    I really wanted to like this, I love sci-fi films, even the ultra low budget ones, I love horror films, even low budget ones, but this, oh my God.

    The special effects were straight out of the 1970s Doctor Who school of sci-fi. Cheap looking sets, plastic guns, boiler suits for spacesuits. Hard to believe this was made in the 21st Century, it would have been rubbish even back in the 70s. As for the acting, good God, where did they get these people?. The acting is worse than even that in any adult movie, it is that bad. Luckily I was given the DVD from a friend, I am so glad I never paid for it. It says something for how bad this is though, that my friend had bought it for £1 from a Pound Shop less than three years after it was made. It isn't even worth the pound he paid to be honest.

    Another for the "Avoid" list I am afraid.

    interesting effort

    Sometimes, the chutzpah of a filmmaker is more worthy of praise than their abilities or efforts. Such is the case with this shot in Alabama oddity, a palatable mix of sci fi and satire. Which is not to say that it's bad, it isn't, at least technically; the clever use of old fire extinguishers as oxygen paks, terrarium domes and vacuum cleaner hoses as space helmets, and hazmat jumpsuits as space suits are no less ingenious for being recognized for their original purposes. The script's satire of corporate culture borrows more heavily from OFFICE SPACE than ALIEN, which is timelier. Of course, this is low budget indie film making, so there are some seams. But given the limitations under which the filmmakers were working, these are more charming than anything. Most everyone has dealt with smarmy bosses, nonsensical internal policies, and boredom on the job, so it's relatable. Gore effects are good, but the ending seemed a little slipshod. Not a bad watch.
