Goofy and corny low budget sci-fi comedy...
9 May 2022
Right, well from this 2017 sci-fi comedy movie's cover alone, then I wasn't really expecting a whole lot. But still, as I hadn't already seen director Brian K. Williams' "Space Babes from Outer Space" movie, then of course I had to give it a viewing.

Well, "Space Babes from Outer Space" is not exactly groundbreaking cinema, and it is as corny and cheesy as you would assume it to be given the movie's title and its cover. Initially, I was dreading this would be a lousy and sleazy movie bordering on being softcore pornography, but thankfully director Brian K. Williams didn't venture that far down that path. "Space Babes from Outer Space" has some topless nudity in it and that is about it, so thumbs up for that.

The storyline in "Space Babes from Outer Space" is pretty straight forward. I will say that the storyline was actually corny enough to be enjoyable for what it turned out to be. And the movie was actually not all that bad in comparison to so many other movies of the same ilk. Sure, this isn't Shakespearian storytelling, but you get what you would expect from a movie such as this.

This is a low budget movie, pure and simply. But the props, costumes, wardrobes, sets, etc. Were actually fair, and they added a good layer of charms to the movie. It worked very well in favor of the movie, as it brought a somewhat stylish sense of low budget charm to the production. So, thumbs up on that achievement.

Needless to say that I wasn't familiar with a single actress or actor that were on the cast list. But I will say that those involved in the movie put on good enough performances. I can't single out anyone for a particularly memorable performance, though, but in overall the actors and actresses put on good enough jobs.

It takes a somewhat special mindset to sit down and watch a movie like "Space Babes from Outer Space". You have to enjoy corny sci-fi movies that are aimed at a randy, young adult audience. And you also need to have a liking for movies that doesn't take itself or anything else serious. And most importantly, you need to have a love for low budget cinema.

All in all, "Space Babes from Outer Space" was watchable enough for what it turned out to be. However, it is not a movie that I will be watching a second time.

My rating of "Space Babes from Outer Space" lands on a five out of ten stars.
