Convict 762

Like the hyped "Deathlands" movie sc-fi made this movie a top turkey event. I think the Sc-fi studio's should stick to what they do best "making huge extravagant commercials and endless self promotional clips for the sc-fi channel."

Like most people who rent this movie, I got sucked in because the box proclaimed that there would be several women stuck on a space ship. So... images of Erin Gray from the second season of Buck Rodgers flashed through my mind. Boy was I disappointed. Not only was there no plot, but there wasn't even an alluring outfit! I thought these movies REQUIRED spandex.

Note to the direct-to-video companies - ONLY men rent these movies, and they ONLY do so in order to see women who are more attractive than the ones in their social circles.

Not the worst movie ever made, but definitely not even close to being a "good" movie by itself. Plot-wise, as most people have commented, this movie is a cross between Aliens and Predator. Ship full of babes gets stuck on a prison planet where everyone is dead except 2 -- and one of them is the convict of the title, supposedly a really really bad hombre that you don't want to cross.

Acting is subpar and character motivations are less than believable. Characters act without any proper reason; the "idiot quotient" rears its ugly heads in these types of movies (i.e. people do some really, really stupid things that gets them killed). Like one reviewer said, a ship full of nice looking women becomes a complete waste of time since these women are so unbelievably thick-headed.

A great premise goes terribly, terribly wrong. Then again, I could be wrong.

Convict 762 is a lesson in how not to make a sci-fi film. Completely and utterly unwatchable. How on earth did a film like this get made? The performances were overwrought and the special effects were so terrible I expected to see the fishing line holding up the spaceships. Please Hollywood don't make anymore pieces of drivel like this I beg you.

An all babe spaceship blasts off with a serviceable sci-fi script. It sounds like fun, right? Wrong!! The girls crash land on a planet devoid of sunlight in a spacecraft devoid of light bulbs. The gloomy set only compliments the dismal cinematography. (If using ultra low light is a gimmick for obscuring a low budget, it doesn't work). The girls are photographed mainly from the chin up. You probably won't feel cheated or teased by this, however, since their wardrobes are as enticing as potato sacks. The sparse action provided is also undermined by the lack of light and cramped cinematography. I sometimes wonder how those stupid enough to produce these unappealing gems are smart enough to get the money in the first place. The producers wasted their time and money. Don't waste yours.
