In 2268 (although the
box says 2069), a female prisoner is allowed to leave
and resume her previous
career as a marshall in order to stop an alien race
from exposing all humans
to a deadly virus. This virus is transmitted by a
lesbian alien in disguise
as head of a spaceship. She scratches her
victims, and they end
up splitting into two and giving birth to a disgusting
alien (just like that
"Alien" movie). And our hero has to track this
monster down (or is
the monster tracking her down?) onboard this almost
uninhabited ship (again,
like the "Alien" movie).
This is a low budget
movie. How low budget, you ask? The sets are cheesy,
the acting is awful,
there's stock footage, there's an alien creature who we
never get a great look
at - and you can still tell it's a bad puppet - and
there's a number of
sex scenes. And the use of flashbacks... there are
flashbacks throughout
the movie to scenes previously shown ... some of
which were only two
minutes earlier! The sex scenes help (as they always
do), but don't be fooled
- this is a horrible sci-fi/thriller.
