Summary: An all-star cast seperate this from grade Z movies!
Review: Aliens out of control! Humans voraciously attacked by out of this world creatures! You can't lose with this flick! Actually, if you're an insomniac, you won't lose. Those lost hours of sleep will come back during a viewing. NightBeast was a better version of this flick with most of the same cast.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: How can anyone review this seriously????
Review: If you haven't seen this "movie" (and that's a generous description for this particular title), ONLY see it if you're into some low-budget laughs. The Alien Factor is the stuff of Mystery Science Theater - and I'm amazed those guys never got hold of this one. Horrendous acting, cheap EVERYTHING and an outrageously (and unintentionally) funny stilt-walking monster. The mere fact this has made it to DVD amazes and mystifies me.

Do yourself a favor - order this ONLY if you're wanting to host your own MST3K party.

Summary: UH..............................................
Review: Uh, I don't know what movie the first reviewer saw, but there is no steamy sex scene between the sherrif and his "vixen" deputy. All the deputies are other men with bad haircuts. I remember wanting to see this movie as a kid because it was featured in Famous Monsters magazine. I bought it for that reason alone. It's pretty boring. No nudity or profanity to make the boredom go away. Some pretty cool (think Lost in Space tv show) creature effects, though. Still, if you like lame cheapies, then you might like it. I will say this: for a poorly made 80's obscurity, the disc is pretty nice. Lots of extras like a bloopers reel and deleted scenes.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: 5 Stars Bad + 1 Star Bad = 3 Stars Bad
Review: When I was a kid, my brother and I tuned into this movie on TV late one night when we had nothing better to do. After about 15 minutes of it, the VCR began to roll, along with our tears of laughter. I don't know if it was that night in particular, or the actual charms of this particular piece of drek, but it still holds a warm place in my heart as possibly THE funniest bad movie I'll ever see.

Not one thing about this movie is well done...the only good thing about it is the sincerity and love with which it was assembled. The actors are the worst community theatre types, but they go about their "work" with no apologies, as though they believe that they are creating the finest Ray Harryhausen epic. That helps a lot when the "monsters" flinch at the gunshots, or stumble on their prosthetic stilts. If there is a ghost of Ed Wood, he inhabits this film.

If you like making fun of bad movies (or even MAKING bad movies), and have a late night and nothing to fill it, invite a few sarcastic friends over and have the time of your life with this. It's hard to believe it even exists, let alone on DVD.
