In the review!
And then we conclude: 80's highlight!!!
Space-horror comes to Earth and then pretty much everything is in it (vampires, zombies, shapeshifters, body horror).
Maybe not all FX look convincing to younger viewers, but we haven't seen them this beautiful in the past 25 years.
I suddenly feel like an eighties movie week!

Most expensive Cannon film production and rightly flopped, because it is quite a mess. The story wanders in all directions and has no logic. The casting is mediocre in terms of leading roles, and while the effects are quite good and especially the beginning promises a lot, lighting and camera work are not very special and most of the film is boring to watch, with the exception of the extraterrestrially beautiful Mathilda May, who is almost banging around in her bare ass the entire movie. A very nice ass too, but a lack of pace kills the film further. A variant of this b-movie vehicle was later released in the form of the rather lousy Species.

You can just imagine how such a film came about during a party of drinking and sniffing from the makers.

"Guys, idea! An alien is coming to Earth!"

-"Yeah, cool man!"

"And she looks like a super nice woman!"

-"Yes, go ahead!"

"And he walks around naked all the time boy!"

-"Well then! This sounds good!"

"And she keeps wanting from bil!estein!"

-"Genius! We should make a movie out of this! Call our producer! I'll save you a line! Shall we go to the whores after this?"

What an original, bizarre video! It is not just an alien that comes to earth for a while because the film has a lot more to offer than that. When you know that vampires , zombies , immense bats, hallucinations, flashes of light and a lot of gory scenes and character changes occur in the story , you realize that it will be a special experience where you can go all kinds of things to expect. The first half is mysterious and offers more suspense than the total craziness that ramps up in the second half. Like the protagonists, the viewer is led on the wrong track for a long time. Admittedly, it is sometimes presented as crazy and campy with the necessary kitsch, but it is presented well and full of fun. Wonderful nonsense! In addition, the film has another big trump card, namely the beautiful sexy Mathilda May. The scene when she escapes and walks naked through the corridors with her amazing beautiful bosom is a candy, a new word in the movie world. What a beautiful woman 7.5/10
