The first time I saw this film, I fell in love with it. Every time since then, have only liked its nuances more and more.

It's a dark, tongue in cheek comedy about aliens taking on human identities temporarily (and badly), trying to find the perfect human match for them to assume. Has some wonderful, little scenes that are so, so reminiscent of the 50's, but much more gore 9(done in an amusing way) and sex than the 50's ever got away with.

Definitely something not to miss for lovers of sci-fi, especially if you like a comedic twist. Great stuff! ! !

I first watched this on ShowtimeBeyond around 10:00 p.m. on a Saturday night thinking I will love this since I saw it at a grocery store back in 1997,I was too young to rent it so I waited 10 years to watch it and I wasn't disappointed. This movie is so f*ckin'awesome filled with a good sense of dark humor,nudity(I love Rainer Grant),and a 1950s feel to it,it even seems like an homage to Roger Corman's 1957 Not of this Earth at times. New people move to a small California town to kill people to take the skin off them to find the perfect type-ab blood,since their aliens from outer space. This movie is a very darkly humorous movie that's sometimes gory but the performances by Rainer Grant and Morgan Englund,the aliens, are very funny to watch. I recommend people see this film

Disgusting little film about 2 aliens who skin human beings in order to walk among us unseen. The movie beautifully introduces the characters and the ol' boring town 'Tranquility' where all those strange killings take place. The 2 characters Anita Clark (Joanna Pacula) & her husband Sam (Peter Onorati) suspect what's underneath the newcomers' skin could be deadly!
Below average: Produced by schlock meister Roger Corman.
