A space crew lands on Saturn's moon and picks up an unwanted straggler. The plot of this movie may seem familiar to you because it rips-off not only Ridley Scott's ALIEN, but also every other ALIEN rip-off that had come out since. There's even a butch female character that I think was there to remind us of Sigourney Weaver. She even strips down to her undies like Weaver did at the climax of ALIEN.
Unfortunately, this movie is a snooze fest. There are a few creepy scenes with the dead crewmen coming back as zombies, but too much time is spent with actors wandering around doing nothing. At the 60-minute mark I found myself fast forwarding to the final battle with the slimy, big-toothed alien...but even THAT was a letdown.
The movie perks up for 10 minutes when Klaus Kinski pops in for his cameo. He is so fun to watch that he's actually able to pull this movie from the doldrums while he is on-screen. Unfortunately his cameo is short.
With all the ALIEN clones out there, there's no reason to waste your time with this one.
