nick s The script was written by a teenager so the actors really struggled. Few conversations sounded organic. The director was no doubt a big fan of Ridley Scott's Alien and copied as much as could be copied. Even managed to cast Dr Tyrell. Painfully derivative, corny and ameteurish. I wouldn't recommend it unless you're into shlock bigtime. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 08/29/25 Full Review Rax S this is by todays standard pretty cheesy and goofy in a way but it wasn't made for us to enjoy 2025, but for us who were alive and kickin' in the year 2000 to enjoy and times were different back then its suspenseful and well done Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 08/17/25 Full Review BigD J Undoubtedly, without question the predecessor to Event Horizon, whether Anderson and Eisner admit it or not. Is the acting subpar? Yeah. Is it kinda cheesy? Yup. But it’s also highly atmospheric with some really good creep factor. Far more deserving of credit than the 23% RT rating suggests. A must watch for any horror sci-fi fan. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 07/15/25 Full Review Audience Member Cheap production even for 1990 . (Star Trek was way ahead at that time) .. Dialogue stupid . And Whoever did the closed captioned text was an idiot- the words typed had nothing to do with the words being spoken .! It’s a good thing this movie was free. An embarrassment for all the actors involved . Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 02/15/22 Full Review Audience Member It's simply terrible. A mash up of genres with the quality of instant mashed potatoes. Strike that. The potatoes are way better. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 02/23/23 Full Review Audience Member Wasted 15 minutes on this bullshit.
