Sorry, this movie sucks

Highly Overrated But Still Good

It's not great by any means, but it's a pretty good movie that didn't leave me filled with regret for investing time in it.

Story: It's very simple but honestly that is fine.

Sleep inducing movie ironically about dream therapy and experiments. One of the few Full Moon releases to feature a selection of real animals including a cute monkey. Louise Fletcher is an older doctor, ex Baywatch star Shawn Weatherly (she was eaten by a Shark in Baywatch as her breasts weren't big enough or something!) is a young doctor and various men including David Beecroft (as Nasa captain) and James Hong is a male doctor. That is it really, they hang out in a science laboratory where attractive blonde Maureen Flaherty lies completely naked in a sealed dome. Beecroft is sent to investigate the 'Shadowzone' project as someone has been killed. Director J.S. Cardone in one of his two Full Moon outings (the other 'Crash and Burn') has always preferred TV movie style sex and nudity to actual proper storytelling and though this is potentially a strong science fiction tale he manages to make it as bland as perhaps only he could. Watchable thanks largely to the fine cast, but truly average.

I just love these old classics,you can watch them over and over again and never tyre of them.I recently bought this original of ebay,an ex-rental as they have the original trailers etc on them and boy was it money well spent! I have a fantastic collection of these original movies and this is one of my favourites! It has all the horror and gore and tension you could want along with a bit of nudity chucked in for good measure.I'd say this is a must for serious collectors if you can get a copy as this has been deleted in original format since 1993!The story is good and the special effects are above average for the budget the late 80's early 90's horror films usually had!Go get it now and have a great slice of retro horror in your proud collection!10/10

passable alien rip off the script is only so so but the acting is first rate Louise Fletcher is awesome here she is very likable and gives a credible performance nice! David Beecroft is good here i liked him quite a bit he was tough as nails sometimes but overall he did a good job James hong is good here although i sometimes had a hard time grasping what he was saying Miguel Nunez is amusing here i liked him in Return Of The Living dead and i liked him here i think he is pretty funny it has some gory sequences but the pacing is uneven and is at times too talky there is however lots of nudity and the film is kinda predictable and quite campy and this should not be taken seriously but the monster is laughable looking and the ending is quite lame overall a passable rental and is only worth renting if it is under a dollar ** out of 5

Wow, I'm at a loss for how bad this movie is. I love Full Moon and all of their early work, such as Puppet Master, Trancers, and Demonic Toys, and I have a great appreciation for a lot of their talent and independent films, but this?! This doesn't get any stars from me!There is not one character to care about, the plot is full of holes, the story, or lack there of, is atrocious to begin with...I can go on, but I think I'll stop. Bottom line, if you thought full moon movies they make today like Trancers 6, Stitches, and Shrieker suck, you haven't seen anything until you watch this! At least those movies had maybe one or two redeeming moments. This one has noneTake my word for it and listen to this warning. DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME! I love horror, I love B-Films, but this movie fails to meet the expectations I have for both. 1 out of 10
