Viewing Notes

I’m so happy that Prime features trash cinema like this. I don’t think I have this on VHS but it’s totally a straight to video release. Super hilarious to see Bryan Cranston in this paying his dues.

So this is apparently a remake of FORBIDDEN WORLD, which is funny b/c viewing this I’m like, “oh shit this is another ALIEN remake!” And of course FORBIDDEN WORLD is one of those “another ALIEN remake” flicks.

This is bad all around yet my kind of bad. This would be a blast to see in a horror or sci-fi marathon but it will never happen b/c no one is that creative or gives a shit about going off-trail.
