I love this movie so much

Just perfect...

Admirable film.

Great story, amazing characters, superb action, enthralling cinematography. Yes, this is something I am glad I spent money on.

The Falling (1985) * (out of 4) Three American teens (Dennis Christopher, Martin Hewitt, Lynn-Holly Johnson) are traveling through Spain in their RV when they cross paths with an evil alien or something meant to be an alien. Producer Carlos Aured began his career as a director doing a number of Paul Naschy films but he turned to a producer in 1984 with MONSTER DOG and this here turned out to be his second and last job. Apparently the bad production of this made him walk away from producing and it's easy to see why. This entire film is a pretty big, worthless mess that has very little going for it. In fact, the only reason this thing doesn't get a BOMB rating is that there are thankfully some really bad moments that are so bad that you can't help but laugh at them. A perfect example of this comes from the performance of Johnson who clearly wasn't meant for this role. She's a very cute girl but sadly her acting is just downright awful and especially during a sequence where she freaks out after one of the guys say something sexual towards her. I'm really not sure what was going on during this scene but it seems like Johnson was trying get show "anger" by doing some sort of karate moves with her hands. Both Christopher and Hewitt aren't much better as the two of them pretty much sleepwalk through their roles. The entire film is incredibly boring thanks in large part to a screenplay that simply doesn't have anything going. There's no excitement, no energy and there's certainly no tension during the horror scenes. The only thing this has going for it outside the unintentional laughs are some mild gore effects but once the creature shows up you'll be asking yourself WTF. THE FALLING is a bad movie from start to finish and one that most are going to want to skip.

Campy fun, especially the three leads, two young guys and a girl, goofing off on their vacation in Europe. They're both hot for her (she played Bibi Dahl in For Your Eyes Only, and James Bond considered her cute enough for ice cream but not for boffing) but they're just friends. One who likes to do impressions, the other keeps flirting with her, and she's a little air-headed but all fun to be around.Everyone else takes their characters *so* seriously that it's funny, so tape it on Sci Fi (I'm not sure if it's on video) and watch it for a fun movie that you can MiST/riff along with the leads.

Bad but funny Sci-Fi movie.Very low budget.Average story and good lead young stars.Does not take itself too seriously so it is to be viewed like a cartoon.Only for fans of B-movie Sci-Fi horror and big fans of the lead actors......

Derivative, dark, dull sci-fi thriller that can't breathe any life into its tired cliches, and moves ever-so-slowly to boot. However, there is a pretty cool head-explosion scene and a nicely understated ending. Not really the worst of its type, but not very good, either. (*1/2)
