@Anorack One of the greatest B movies ever. If you haven’t watched this one, drop everything and get on it.

@suetanvil @bmoviebonanza Oh no

@bmoviebonanza Too bad, images from Mastodon don’t work – you can click the fediverse logo to link back to my original post.

No idea if images come through from Mastodon, let’s find out!

@MisterBigFart Watched this one today, phenomenal. I think my favorite part is when they show photos of murder victims, but you can see they’re just headshots of some women. Probably actors who auditioned for the film.

@ChicoSuave Literally didn’t even look at the poster before I was downloading a copy.

@MisterBigFart This is one of those movies where I read the title and immediately go watch it. It’s told me everything I could possibly want to know about the film.

@Anorack This movie was wild, feels like the first ten minutes got bolted on after production ended because the film didn’t come out long enough.

@MisterBigFart That’s a hell of a poster.

@Anorack So yes, this is a cash grab piggybacking off Alien (and maybe a bit of Battlestar Galactica), but IMO it’s a pretty respectable pulp sci-fi film that transcends its limitations and is enjoyable on its own terms. Sid Haig turns in a respectable performance, Ray Walston is terrific, and the ending is pretty great.

Also, James Cameron (yes, THAT James Cameron) was production designer and second unit director.

And: what an amazing poster.

@MisterBigFart This looks amazing.

@miah @Anorack Okay, amazing.

@miah @Anorack does this even remotely work
