This was a very scary (at times) film. While being dubbed by many as an "Alien" ripoff, the only thing where I noticed similarities is the creature itself. The opening is the best part. Good buildup! But, sorry to say, the dialouge is lousy, and the characters needed to be better developed. If only this film had been better written, I think it would have been more of a hit. It was well acted by Lyman Ward, Klaus Kinski, and Stan Ivar, but I think they had to wonder through production why they had dialouge as bad as this. All in all, very well made (William Malone did a good job directing), the effects were OK, and it is a very scary film. Rent it and give it a try! If you are a real horror movie fan, you won't be disappointed!
