David W That was absolutely terrible. Derivative plot, lousy special effects, atrocious dialogue, terrible acting, amateurish action scenes, laughably bad fight scenes, this has it all. Lance Henriksen really needed to sit his agent down and have a strong word. Henriksen is a quality actor so why does he keep appearing in garbage like this? Does he feel obliged to be in everything with the word 'Alien', in the title? Anyway, it's terrible, avoid. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 02/02/24 Full Review Ian L 35 minutes into this movie and I still have no clue what purpose the main character has. I know this was a low budget movie, and that's fine. But I wish they would have spent more then 99 cents on the script. And the fight sequences ... They would have been better off without any fight scenes at all. Plus almost all of those scenes really made no sense. Don't bother wasting your time on this. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 08/17/23 Full Review Audience Member Hilariously bad! Some good and some terrible cgi, but even basic special effects like green screening looked like 1950s tech or South Park episode. Tons of plot holes - can you say that if there's no plot? Let's say, tons of non-sensical occurences. Some horrendous acting, fight scenes and dialogue. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 02/03/23 Full Review Audience Member Absolutely terrible. A combination of Event Horizon, Lifeforce, Dr. Moreau, Predator, Dark Angel and any number of other sci-fi movies you care to mention; just with less budget than a single episode of X-Files and a complete lack of talent both in front of and behind the camera. Lance Henriksen is wasted here though he does the best with what he has to work with. At one point Henriksen gives one of the other characters "three choices: dead, dead, or dead." That's what you'll wish you'll be watching this movie! Avoid! Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 01/27/23 Full Review Audience Member Lance Henriksen owes me 93 minutes. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 02/10/23 Full Review Audience Member A very poorly made film. Do not buy or even waste your time watching this train wreck of a film. Acting is bad, CGI is extremely amateur, there is nothing good about this film. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 02/14/23 Full Review Read all reviews
