JamieWJackson Very mild spoiler (of something which happens in the first 20 minutes): So in our cast we've got 2 slightly past-their-prime shampoo TV commercial models, 1 foul-tempered missing linkess, and a heart-poundingly cute goddess named Emily Longstreth. What's a movie production to do but kill off the goddess straight away and take our chances with the rest after........huh??There are many things to be said about this alleged movie. Like "in space, no one can hear you crawl". Or "why act when we can just sit here?" Or "hey, you know... tying these random scenes together doesn't actually require an explanation, just some splicing tape". Or "glowing dot showdown Survivor -- in SPACE!"Only watch this if you have a strong tolerance for junk and your life is simply 91 minutes too damn long. (So... why did I watch it? Schlock OCD, I guess. That and Emily Longstreth! Even if only for a scandalously few minutes.)

Aaron1375 I remember watching this one as a child and it was not exactly the most original movie starting out. Clearly one of the many "Alien" clones out there this one features the ship that takes on a crystal and said crystal spawns an alien. I shall call said creature star creature for the purposes of this review. Well star creature methodically kills the crew of this vessel and he does so very quickly with kills that are typical of low budget horror. We have the typical vent scenes, a lab death and things of that nature. Star creature seems nearly indestructible as plan after plan fails to stop this beast from killing the crew. Then we are down to the last two members of the crew and it is time for the final showdown, right? No, wrong! It is time for the people to become friends with star creature and make the first part of the film with all the death a distant memory as this alien becomes friendly. You get scenes of him and the last two survivors helping each other and having a fond farewell scene. Excuse me, star creature butchered the rest of the crew and now it is friendly? I mean it tries to explain that it was defending itself, but really now how much danger is a creature that is nearly indestructible really in, seriously? At least they did not have the last two remaining crew throw their arms around the thing at the end and go "we are going to miss you so much, star creature". Though I can see the female going "goodbye, though I still don't understand why you killed everyone" and the guy going "shut up, it is almost gone and we will finally not have to worry about that thing mutilating us if we happen to startle it". All in all a bad "Alien" rip off, that I will say got a bit original when the alien got friendly. Thankfully, in the "Alien" movies you never had scenes where Ripley had tea with the aliens in an effort to understand why they must shoot their offspring into the mouths of other living things to procreate.

tawlite The first part of the movie was pretty dire, and the acting was really awful,but it got better after most of the crew apart from 2 were killed. Some reviewers have commented that the movie is another cheap Alien rip off but it isn't really. It does change direction from gooey killings to ET type Alien but I thought that was a nice direction to go with the movie. Some commentators have knocked the effects but I didn't really notice them; most Sci Fi space films have pan views of the ships in space and this was no different. The interior of the ship was adequate and was OK for a mid 80s sci film. I didn't understand why there was no walking decks as most of the ships access seemed to be through claustrophobic tunnels.You'll either hate it or be satisfied with it. It isn't a great movie by any stretch of the imagination but it is more than watchable. When I first put it on I fell asleep bored out of my head, but I gave it another go and I am glad I did.

willywants Set in 2032, as missions from Earth are being sent to explore Mars. After two groups of astronauts are mysteriously killed following the discovery of strange artifacts on the martian surface, the crew of the SC-37 go in to try and find out what happened. They soon learn what became of their predecessors when a bloodthirsty space monster begins lunching on members of the crew. Will any of them make it back to Earth alive? Pretty poor "alien" rip-off has lots of slime and gore, useless acting, poor editing in the "attack" scenes, and a horrible "Psycho" rip-off score (Man, that was so obnoxious!). Not worth your time.
