With all respect to the previous comment "Oh Lordy lookout", how can say this wasn't intentional comedy? The fight bathroom battling spouse's sequence - Jeff Wincott with the plunger and Maria Ford with the knife is one of the funniest, scenes in any movie ever. Bawdy, great action, out-of left-field - and worth the price of the rental easy. A lot of other stuff is deliberately hilarious -sandwitched into a quirk "B" sci-fi story. I think Wincott and Maria Ford (who shows real acting chops and terrific comedic timing) both get a big "thumbs up" here. Give it a break, I've rented a lot bigger budget stuff that delivered a LOT less!

Ok, so it is really that bad. But it's entertaining in a Mystery-cience-Theater-3000 sort of way. I mean, it's not just bad, it's awful. It makes you wonder what the writers were thinking. The special effects are a joke, the bright latex costumes are inexcusable, and, to appeal to the highbrows, the movie contains numerous references to Alice in Wonderland, for which the main character has some kind of wierd fetish. Look for Humpty Dumpty on the mantle during the sex scenes. Anyway, it's basically a 90's update of Plan Nine from Outer Space, only without aliens (the only space shot is of this satellite collecting cosmic dust, which is shown maybe eight different times). The movie is worth checking out, if only to know for yourself how bad it really is. But don't be disappointed when you find out that those tight guns and exploding spaceship on the cover are nowhere in the film.

An earlier comment already summed up how bad most of this film is, but one thing was left out: The plot.Let me just add that the plot of this film is unrealistic, incoherent and extremely boring.

I thought that the movie had some potential. There seemed to be an ironic don't take this to serious quality to it. I mean it's not Citizen Kane or even rocky, but for a b movie it had some laughs and several intelligent scenes. The last scene with Stacey Keach and Jeff Wincott was especially good. Jeff Wincott had some great lines in the Bruce Willis vein. A very sexy love scene and a couple of good fights. It probably was butchered by Corman or who ever is in charge of his movies. It's as if the humour and intelligence was cut, but they couldn't get it all. Lucky for the viewer. Overall it was a b movie, great for late night viewing when there isn't a whole lot on. It's worth it.
