MOVIES DR.
ALIEN
Starring Judy Landers
This horrendous little film is about a young man in his freshman year at college who's good with the books but not the ladies. And it also features his wise-cracking smooth-talking shade-wearing friend, his old fashioned parents, his bratty little brother, and a bonehead jock. Wow, I've never seen that array of characters in a movie before - how totally original. Well, anyway, this kid's biology teacher gets run off the road by a flying ball of light which is supposed to be a UFO. The next day, the substitute teacher shows up, and she's hot. And by hot, I mean Judy Landers, who looks a lot older than she was at the time, with too much makeup and too much hair. But hell, it was the 80's, anybody could be hot if they teased out their hair and plastered on the makeup. So then this teacher (Mrs. Xenobia) gives our hero (who's name I can't even remember) an alien sex drug as an extra credit assignment. He becomes a guinea pig, and the laughs are sure not to follow. Throughout the rest of the movie, he turns from nerd to irrestible hunk to a mutant freak to a rock star. The quality of this movie
is awful - from the uninteresting, unfunny plot to the cartoonish background
music and sound effects to ... ahhh... pretty much everything about this
movie is of poor quality. I guess I should mention the special effects,
like the giant blue alien head or the
So I wouldn't really
recommend this to anyone, but at the same time, with all of these aspects
of the film (including a good sprinkling of T&A), the movie is watchable
- just not all that enjoyable.
