This is a cute sci-fi/comedy/horror flick from Mexico. Eulalio Gonzales (aka Piporro) is a cowboy that tells many lies to impress others at the local bar. Two beautiful Venusians (well they come from planet Venus) are send to the space to obtain the best males to be the fathers of new off-springs because Venus males are dying (maybe are all queer, they don't explain). So they come to earth and apparently Piporro is the best male earth can offer, so they try to kidnap he. The males of other planets (in this case monsters like a cyclops, a spider and a blood sucking guy with a huge exposed brain) got unleash because one of the Venusians is really a vampire and sees the opportunity to conquer earth with their help. Piporro, his nephew and the other kinky Venusian will try to stop the evil monsters. La nave de los mounstros probe what a B-movie should be. It doesn't try to be very dramatic (like Gringo b-movies) because we ALL KNEW that the monsters are made of cheap plastic (well even a today kid will laugh) because of the tight budget. And doesn't try to be an all comedy (because it will lose its charm). For all you non-Spanish speakers is better that you try to get a copy with subtitles (or better with a decent dubbing) because you will miss some great jokes and cheap dialog you won't find on any gringo B-movie. (I refuse to call anything coming from the United States "american" because we all -from Canada to Chile- live in a continent named America and so we all "americans" not just they)
