Storyline
| Plot Summary |
The space shuttle Churchill is assigned to observe Halley's Comet under the command of Colonel Tom Carlsen. They see a strange form attached to the comet and Carlsen goes with a team to investigate. They find three humanoid life forms in caskets and they bring them to the Churchill. However, Earth loses contact with the shuttle and the Space Research Center sends another spacecraft to search the Churchill. They find the crew dead and the shuttle burnt and one rescue pod missing. They bring the humanoids to Earth and soon Dr. Hans Fallada and his team discover that the Space Girl is a sort of vampire and drains the life force from people, transforming them into zombies. When the authorities find that Colonel Tom Carlsen has survived, they summon him to explain what happened in the Churchill. Carlsen tells an incredible story about the three aliens and he teams up with Colonel Colin Caine trying to save mankind from the evil vampires from space.

| Trivia | Mathilda May had rubber soles glued to the bottom of her feet in order to avoid cutting them during the scene in which she walks out of the building, after breaking the glass windows. See more » |
| Goofs | Near the end of the movie, when Carlsen nears the female vampire, the steps of the building housing her body are crowded with zombies. But conveniently, there is a clear path of the stairs which he can walk through. There was a lot of mental coercion going on throughout the movie. Chances are - she made sure there was a path.

Colonel Tom Carlsen:
It was the hardest thing I ever did. Dr. Bukovsky: We understand. It must have taken great courage to try and... Colonel Tom Carlsen: No, you don't understand. Part of me didn't want to leave. She killed all my friends and I still didn't want to leave. Leaving her was the hardest thing I ever did. See more » |
