A regular and cheesy knock-off of Alien with shocks, tense, chills, being visually astonishing and astounding . This chiller features the reawakening of human-devouring life on one of Saturn's moons in a distant future . This monster has been sleeping peacefully on a moon of Saturn for 2000 years showing up at a planet with grisly consequences . A crew (Stan Ivar , Wendy Schaal , Lyman Ward ...) of a starship arrives in the Jupiter's moon and find a lot of surprises. As they become threatened by a strange form on loose, causing wreak havoc. First you die... then the terror begins .It's been sleeping for 2000 years , until now .
Ordinary and gruesome plot copying Alien, dealing with a two thousand-year-old alien life form is killing off astronauts exploring the planet Titan . This B-exploitation Sci-Fi has a well-known storyline and very used premise, that's why it displays many cliches of the genre. Nail-biting picture packs tension from start to finish , gory scenes aplenty , grisly events, thrills, chills , slime , screams and entertainment .Alien imitation has its moments but not enough of them . Klaus Kinski provides some tension and laughs as well . Special Effects FX are acceptable , in fact they were created by the same technicians as Aliens (1986) a year after.
It follows really the classic plot about a destructive Alien similar to other exploitation movies as "Galaxy of Terror" 1981 by Bruce Clark and "Forbidden World" 1982 by Allan Holzman, both of them produced by Roger Corman/New World Pictures. The motion picture was regular but professionally directed by William Malone, as it contains flaws, gaps, failures and with no originality. Malone is a nice writer and director expert on terror movies, such as : House on haunted hill", "Feardotcom", "Parasomnia" , "Masters of Horror", "Perversions" , "Death county" , "Tales of Crypt" , "Freddy's nightmares" , "Scared to death", among others . Rating : 5.5/10 acceptable and passable . Rated R for violence, nudism and gore.
