VHS Movie Reviews of Xtro [VHS]
Movie Review: Suitable only for the Brain Dead
Summary: 1 Stars
Below average re-telling of the "alien lands on earth" cliche found in most American horrors of the 50's except this time its done terribly. The actors are all monotonous grade z-horror fodder, namely the woman who was in one of Lamberto Bava's early works, equally as bad as this. The story goes haywire when there is a midget clown attacking people with an absurd hand saw and the end doesn't really tell much about the intentions of the alien. Terrible film......
Movie Review: An alien classic film
Summary: 4 Stars
I will never forget this film. I saw this film at the age of thirteen and the re-birth scene was extremely disturbing to my mind. It changes my sinless mind for ever like Adan and Eve when they feel the impact of the original sin. I couldn't sleep that terrible night. The re-birth scene was like a brainstorm in my mind and I feel the most strange situation of mind damage in all my life. Now, I want to see it again but at the same time I feel scared. Its the most strange alien classic, but that's why you would never forget it. Please, excuse if there is some incorrect word because I am a latin american from Puerto Rico.Movie Review: Still in my brain 20 years later...
Summary: 3 Stars
I saw this movie back when it first came out on video. People always talk about cult movies but this is one they don't talk about. It is such a "B Flick" that you're embarrassed to admit you've seen it but at the same time it sticks with you. If you see this as I did (an impressionable 14-year-old) it will definitely shake you up a bit. Watch it a few times and you'll never forget it. You have to watch it more than once to truly appreciate it.Movie Review: A strangely disturbing horror film
Summary: 3 Stars
This is one of those movies (like the bargain-basement "Carnival of Souls" or the Japanese "Attack of the Mushroom People") which critics and audiences immediately write off, and yet the images and atmosphere seem to creep up in your psyche and stick with you for years. The concept: Daddy disappears, later returns a changed man, and everything falls apart. Sort of a wacky reinterpretation of the Judeo-Christian apocalypse, with Christ's return signalling the end of everything we know. The special effects are superb on this film, as evidenced in the rebirthing scene, but it is the unseen and implied which makes this film truly horrifying (what WAS that creature they ran into?). Philip Sayer is perfect as the quiet, transformed "father" of all the horror, and his performance is a large part of why the film is so disturbing. Maryam D'Abo adds little to the piece aside from her value as a sexual object (which she ultimately becomes in the film, in a horrific way). This film confounds our expectations, which all horror films should seek to do. Of course it is low-budget and low-brow, but that doesn't detract from its ability to frighten its audience. Years after I first saw it, this film still has the power to give me the creeps.Movie Review: An All Time Bizarro Classic
Summary: 5 Stars
Okay, okay, so Xtro is no academy award winner, but in terms of sheer bizarre entertainment, it can't be topped. I first remember seeing Xtro when I was about 9. It was a strange film experience that I never forgot, if you see it you will certainly understand why. Xtro has to have one of the most disturbing and entertaining birth scenes of any film, ever, period. I happen to own a vhs copy of Xtro that has been seen many times by myself and friends and family alike. Check it out if you have a sense of humor and an apreciation for cheesy sci-fi.
