I watched this movie late at night, stayed up past my bedtime I did. Then, first, I rarely will watch a movie twice, there are just too many movies out there and not enough time. But this movie deserved the time. I loved the fight scenes, loved the premise of the movie.

The action scenes are well spread out over the film and they have good pace despite being very much style over substance. The explanation for all the acrobatics and semi-invincibility of the cyborgs.

Highly entertaining, the score was more than okay, the casting does a really good job.

The cast is a strange mix but works.

Moral of the story is: watch it, you won't be disappointed.

Although it is far from being a classic, "The Strange Inhabitant" fares better than most with good performances from the two lead actors (Rui Constantino and Miguel D. Dias ).

The action is paced nicely throughout the story, keeping the tension levels and the viewer's interest high from start to finish.

The scenery is also used to excellent effect, helping to evoke the danger and despair of the period. The scenes set amongst the squalor of the villages helps to convey the desperate conditions that many people were living in.

On the downside, the special effects aren't very special, if you'll excuse the pun, and the dialogue occasionally borders on the cheesy but all in all, the film manages to succeed at delivering what the viewer wants, the fantasy of swords and sorcery, and ultimately the battle between good and evil.

For fans of the genre, this is a must see, for me a 10, i´m a sucker for these movies.
