Ever heard of Oedipus?

Like him, I want to pluck my eyes out after watching that trash. Or cut my head off and throw it in a blender.

The aliens were really -no, I mean REALLY- badly made, the script sucked big time, the special effects had moved to another galaxy, and the acting was equivalent to the ones you would expect from any soap opera.

I would have enjoyed any Patty episode more than this. I feel that I should go back to therapy and tell my group mates how I am wasting my life watching stupid films like this.

Trust me... Do not watch this!
