Cosmos mortal

Very nearly the, if not THE worst film I've ever seen. I got it by mistake; it was supposed to be AvP, but some idiot screwed up. Most bad movies at least partly redeem themselves, if only by achieving "so bad it's good" status. Not this one. The acting is stilted and the plot frequently makes no sense at all. Samantha is a totally insufferable bimbo and Damon and Michael are only marginally better. I don't recall it ever being revealed just what the three of them were doing driving around Spain in the middle of the night anyway, or what is the significance of the (apparently) Indian family whose fate was so terrible we weren't even allowed a peek at their bodies. I can't tell you what the monster really looks like, because I was only allowed tiny glimpses of it, not even enough to try to guess its species, never mind being afraid of it.

Bottom line is, they just shouldn't have bothered.

I was able to sit through the entire film, something I couldn't do for other B films. There were so many bad aspects of this film, like the overacting and the plot. The pros were some location shots of Spain, mid 1980's fashion and a great gas explosion so good they used it twice. As this was my first and last viewing of "Alien Predator" or "The Falling", I can say, I was hoping for a twisted ending. Like, the alien only hunts and kills bad actors paving the way for a new generation of super actors in B films- No Spoilers. Dennis Christopher as Damon was hyper irritating. Lynn-Holly Johnson's Samantha is beautiful, but reminded me of an anime come to life and Martin Hewitt's character, Michael, could have read his part from a script throughout this film, without affecting the viewing at all. Seriously, Hewitt could have had a script in each scene, reading his lines and if anything, it would have improved the movie. This film should be shown at all acting, directing and editing schools so that maybe, we'll get better B movies in the future.

Two guys and a girl are on vacation in Spain. On their way to Madrid, they run across the small town of Duarte, where a Skylab fell four years prior. Unfortunately, microbes from the station didn't burn up upon re-entry as originally assumed. The townspeople are being infected by the alien microbes, turning into deranged, beer throwing hosts for alien predators.

Fun film is a bit slower going than you'd expect, spending time on the characters' love triangle. Highlights? We briefly meet a family including a guy who sounds like a Three Stooges reject. There's a groovy scene with a masked wacko and a big truck that tends to teleport. There's also a smartass bearded guy who's awesome and isn't in the film nearly as long as he should be. You don't see much of the creatures themselves, but when they appear, the effects are good. Think the chestburster from Alien with spider legs.

As bad of a movie this is, it can still be viewed as a good (rainy)Saturday afternoon time-waster. There are far worse(halloween:resurrection)movies out there. I would recommend this to anyone who likes campy, b-grade, low-budget type films. A lot better than another piece of crap that I won't mention here(halloween:resurrection).

Seen this as a kid in the 80s. NO one believed me there was a movie called Alien Preditors. Thought I was making it up. Thank god for google. Even though the kids who said I was full of crap will never read this Im just gonna say after all these years..Here it is. Suck it. Oh and the movie is cheesy as hell...I'd still watch it again and again though. Out of spite mostly now. Kids on vacation in Spain come across some old lab that fell from space that contained a little monster. It infects the locals and terror ensues. If you like monster,80s horror with a slice of science fiction thrown in, you'll love this movie. Has the 80s gore we all love and miss and just enough plot to follow but not enough to make too much sense.
