BOURGEOIS B 12/21/2024 Say what you want about the acting quality but, if you're a fan of Aliens and Dead Space...you gotta love this movie. I, for one appreciate the attention to creative camera action setups and very effective on set lighting. For a lower budget sci fi action movie, you can tell it was made with love for the genre of space action horror. I'll add it to my collection of feel good practical effects gems. Well done. See more 01/26/2013 Im not goin to say that this was a great movie but its not a terrible movie either. Sure the acting is subpar and most of it is cliched. But i enjoyed watching it. If you enjoy a decent scifi flick then you will find this movie quite enjoyable. See more 09/23/2012 Note: This review of the German dvd version with the cover which rips off "Alien" and is titled "Alien vs. Zombie" Although he dialogue is bad especiallly from the purposed bitchy charactor Jen, who is a bitch, the movie is entertaining. You have to get used to the Australian accents at first, especially because the rescue trooper are supposed to be an internation team ( To be more specific: One American, One Mexican and One Australian ) The effects are pretty good. But that good als be because of the dark atmosphere of the movie. It references relics found by the Nazis ( JAI! ) The action and story are good. But the charactors are a bit too stereotypical. You have to keep paying attention. It seems I missed the part where Jen the bitch died. Too bad. The title of the DVD I have is misleading. Arn't zombies in space not just Aliens ? It was better to call it "Aussies vs. Space Zombies" or "Aussies in space" Although i'm not sure they are in space. They might be just under the ground or something or the space ship has a surface. See more 09/17/2012 LOL what the hell is this shit? See more 07/19/2012 Two weeks after viewing i cant recall a single thing about this movie. Says everything you need to know right there. See more 01/13/2012 Low budget gory Sci-fi, that has some great visuals. See more Read all reviews
