2.0 out of 5 stars I Wonder If These Filmmakers Saw "Alien"?, November 30, 2009

This review is from: Creature (Alien) (DVD)

"Creature" is a 1984 monster-in-space movie with virtually no originality but plenty of terrible dialogue and special effects. The film is extremely derivative in almost every aspect: what recent monster or sci-fi movie doesn't make a guest appearance here? Certainly "Alien" and "Jaws" do, at least in spirit. (The conclusion's homage to "Jaws" is especially eye-rolling.)

The acting and especially dialogue are ghastly, although the actors really do try to work with what's been handed to them as best they can. The film starts with an interesting enough corporate intrigue angle (which unfortunately goes nowhere), and progresses to a guy in a rubber suit chasing the stars around cheesy sets in short order. There are a lot of diversions along the way (e.g. lots of hot soldering action, and Klaus Kinski as a creepy German), but it really boils down to the cast getting decimated by a creature that harkens back to other sci-fi creatures.

The film features special effects that vary from not bad to really appalling, but the content of the film is really the issue here, and it can never overcome its derivative nature and the fact that many other movies have trodden the same turf and have been much more entertaining.

5.0 out of 5 stars Good creepy SciFi/Horror movie, October 20, 2010

This review is from: Creature (Alien) (DVD)

I'm giving this movie 5 stars to counter the 1 and 2 star reviews because this isn't that bad of a movie. I was happy to add it to my collection because it has an element to it that separated it from others, in that not only is there a alien with a nasty attitude but it can reanimate the people it kills and make them just as nasty. Even though the acting here is admittedly not the greatest in the world, it's still a good creepy scifi/horror movie and I recommend it just for the creep effect. Side note: They redesigned the artwork for this DVD, I wish they would've left it alone, it looked good enough as it was. -kd5-
