Yes, what to say about this movie written apparently by Americans, produced and directed by Japanese, and starring American and Italian actors and actresses. You have to say it is a fun movie to watch even though it is rather bad too. It is also rather good as well!!! Yes, this movie is a mixed bag to be sure, but overall it is fun to watch because even the badness of the movie is fun to see. It also has lots of hot gals in it, somewhat brutal kills for a movie of this type, and you get rather strange tentacled beasties that are green, but do not really look all that much like slime. Well they did start off looking more like slime in their more "young" form I guess you would call it. Basically, it is an alien gets on board spaceship and cause havoc movie, and you can not really say this one copied Alien as this came out well before it. The effects are right out of a Godzilla movie, the monsters look like they were scheduled to fight Godzilla in Godzilla vs Hedorah, but got fired for not looking slimy enough and somehow managed to land a gig playing green slime. You get to see a lot of weapons fired at the seemingly impossible to kill slime, which is fine by one scientist who seems to really want to befriend them or something. Then you have a rather cool conclusion and then you have that awesome song at the end. Is this a good movie? Most certainly not, but it is just hard to bash a movie that has such great campiness and hot gals, and cool cheap effects and a hell of a uplifting song...GREEEEEN SLIMMMME!!!!
