nick s @Nick_S Oct 17 This is why you don't employ friends and family to make a movie. Or let your slow witted uncle write the script. See more 12/11/2014 (36%) One of the kings of intensive B-movie production, Fred Olen Ray attempted to cash-in on both Alien and the Terminator in one single movie, and the end result is this this pretty bad, yet still perfectly watchable sci-fi action/horror. The opening prologue set on a space prison (and clearly filmed in a disused industrial unit on the outskirts of Hollywood) offers maybe the most fun part of the whole movie with the cheap sets and the ridiculous costumes, the female character with two big holes in her top is especially comedic; but then again I doubt is this was ever intended to be taken in the slightest bit seriously. The alienator herself is a daft looking cyborg that appears to be made up of bits and pieces raided from a prop department and cack handedly put together in a few hours. Fans of low-rent 80's cheese should give this a go as it isn't overly dull, or that badly made that it becomes unenjoyable to watch, but everyone else should stick to the films this wants to imitate. See more 11/26/2014 B-movie. In its finest glory, the '80s. Bad acting. Ripped sound effects. Ripped weaponry (lightsaber / laser pistol)...subpar plot. Dragged out storyline. Just really cheesy but not horribly boring. But there was an attempt to separate all the people who look like humans away from each other by their clothing, to separate the different alien species, even if everyone was basically white... See more 11/16/2014 Corny low budget sci-fi flick is rather charming if these sort of campy low budget flicks are your bag (it's probably a zero to one star movie for viewers with normal movie tastes). Genre veteran Ross Hagen ("The Mini-Skirt Mob" "The Devil's 8" "Angels' Wild Women") plays a space prisoner who's about to be executed, but he escapes to earth where he's hunted by the titular Alienator (you know, like the Terminator), which is hilariously played by a hulking female bodybuilder in a Tina Turner-style fright wig. Hagen befriends a group of earth teenagers who help him stop the unstoppable Alienator. Throw in Jan-Michael Vincent ("Airwolf" "The Mechanic") and John Phillip Law ("Danger: Diabolik" "Barbarella"), who clearly filmed all their scenes in one day so the producers could add a couple name actors to the film's poster, and you have a corny Roger Corman style low budget film that's pretty irresistible for fans of this sort of thing. However, non-fan should probably avoid this one like the plague and will find it ridiculous. FUN FACT! Director Fred Olen Ray started his career with cheapie genre flicks like "Cyclone," "Hollywood Chainsaw Hookers," and "Alienator," moved his way down the ladder to late night Cinemax style fare, and now makes a living directing cable channel family Christmas movies. Quite a career journey there.

Todo esto es una disculpa para malas actuaciones, violencia y sexo gratuito.
