Legion

Why do folks bother to make such films? Here was have a Dirty Dozen plot with the Doz led, not by Lee Marvin, but a very hot babe who used to be the spotted chick on some Star Trek spinoff. As usual in horror movies, they enter a sealed place and stupidly separate so they can be picked off one by one by a yellow light. There is utterly no intelligence to any of this. I just got weary as the chars insist on going off alone even though not one time will the yellow light attack any but a single. Yet these futuristic bozos can't see this pattern. Worth 80 minutes of your time if you have nothing else to do.

Me and my brother had borrowed some movies......all B-rated movies.I thought it would be cool to see Corey Feldman in a horror movie. And he did really good as a computer hacker. But I found the movie as pretty lame, but still pretty fun to watch. I think a lot of new space-horror movies is trying to be in the same class as Alien and the Predator movies, but most movies are far away from close. Legion is ok, it gets 6 out of 10 from me.

This one was like "Aliens" without the aliens... or maybe it was more like a sci-fi slasher movie... Yes, that's it, a sci-fi slasher B-flick. Some folks say that this movie steals the basic premise of "The Dirty Dozen" and puts it in outer space. Indeed, here we have a group of convicts turned into soldiers and sent off to a planet to secure a space station (or something). Amongst them are a religious fanatic female military doctor, a drug-addict/rapist, a nymphomaniac, and Corey Feldman as a computer nerd. The space station looks, of course, like an old factory. You know the drill: all of them get slaughtered (in a not too bloody way) one by one. Lots of running around, lots of shooting and near the end you won't even care about who's doing the killing or if the mutant make-up looks cool or not. I managed to sit through it without too many problems, so I guess it could have been worse.

the movie seemed interesting enough from the cover and plot outline. i'm a big horror fan, i even like plenty of bad horror, so i figured it would be worth watching. well, i think that i was wrong ... this movie is pretty terrible. the dialogue really sucks, half the time i could not even pay attention to what was going on, in fact i had no idea what was going on, and i didnt really want to know what was going on (at least it wasnt predictable being that it was so random and weird). yet, it was kindof like a car accident, you cant stop looking at it.

my friend took the movie out of the dvd player and threw it across the room cursing it immediately after it ended... maybe that says something about how bad the movie was ...

When I saw the box to this movie I thought it might be good for a laugh as it was a normal low budget frightener. I was quite impressed by the way it started though. It has the main character trying to escape from a prison and getting caught only to be told he was being tested for a mission. He and a train load of other misfits are to be sent to a space colony to kill everyone. The introductions to the characters automatically tell you what they're like. Theres Koosman, a pilot. Goodis, a dumb acrobatic who is great small range. Cutter, a rapist and killer. Po, a huge black guy who killed loads of people and so on. There are more but I'd take forever explaining them. They all arrive on the space port anyway and find that everyone has been butchered and mutilated by an animal or something. Is it Bigfoot? Is it the Loch Ness Monster? No. It's just the usual alien monster cover up type thing but its fun to guess WHO it is. An adult Corey Feldman and 80's pop idol Rick Springfield give good performances and make it quite suspenseful. It just turns into a rip-off of Predator at the end though. Quite bloody, good fight scenes and a good monster make it worthwhile too. Overall the good and bad points it gets a 6 out of 10. Now go and find it!
