July 2, 2011This is some high-end cheese-ball Sci-Fi! Although the credits say this film was directed by Bruce D. Clark & Peter Manoogian, the extras on this DVD go to great trouble to let you know this is really an early example of the work of James Cameron & you can see a lot of Aliens in ... read more

January 7, 2011I first heard of this movie 30 yearFinally, after 30 years of waiting, I finally got to this movie. All I can say is, "YES!" The acting was over the top. The storyline was incomprehensible. The special effects were low-budget. And I loved every minute of it!

August 31, 2010A truly terrible film by certain standards, but glorious in its execution and ridiculous history. How can you not be intrigued by a worm rape scene?
Well worth tracking down, easily worth a rental or just blind-buy that mother if you're the adventurous type. -
July 22, 2009Great little film for only one reason: a worm 'rapes' a woman to death. Kinda hard to see why she died. Unless she screamed herself to death. Still, a nice scene.

A certain James Cameron (you may have heard of him) worked as production designer on this cheap 1981 Alien rip-off, now on DVD and Blu-ray for the first time. Full Review

... a crazy mish-mash of elements borrowed from the sci-fi blockbusters of years past with a twist out of Forbidden Planet and Solaris. Full Review

An atrociously acted and scripted piece of Roger Corman-produced low-budget schlock that's only slightly redeemed by some amusing gore and creature effects.

Hilariously awful. Giant-worm rape not withstanding.
