UnowPriceless hyped garbage
MamaGravity good back-story, and good acting
StyleSk8r At first rather annoying in its heavy emphasis on reenactments, this movie ultimately proves fascinating, simply because the complicated, highly dramatic tale it tells still almost defies belief.
Philippa All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.
therex-27410 Just watched Space-God go on an urban adventure to find surly kid Space-Satan for the sole purpose of shaving her head. Shit was jokes, better special effects than 9/11, would watch again.
jellopuke There was a lot to like here if you're into insane nonsense that's all over the place. Interesting visuals, oddball acting, bizarre plot, and loads of dramatic music add up to a worthwhile watch if you're into craziness that didn't quite translate from Italian. John Huston was great when he had to look at the strange light shows and pose, but it sure seemed like they overdubbed Sam Peckinpah because his voice sounded like generic dubbing guy.
stormhappy106 Only John Huston and Glenn Ford add any class to this minor film--The beginning scene was rather effective, but the film is wildly uneven after that--The young girl is sufficiently creepy, but what really hurts this film is the cheap early 1960's lounge music--I would also fast forward the Franco Nero scene(as a blonde-wigged Jesus)--I have to admit that I did like seeing Lance Henriksen get his near the end--I'm not sure why some of these veterean actors got roped into this, but I guess everybody needs a paycheck--Mel Ferrer is effective also but his scenes could be fast-forwarded also--All in all, the film is of minor interest as an example of 1970's cheap film-making lol
outdoorcats This oddball midnight movie is getting a re-release and eventual DVD courtesy of the Alamo Drafthouse.It's about an evil little girl, who is so evil that John Huston and his pacifist army of intergalactic bald yoga practitioners arrive from space to stop her. Meanwhile Lance Henriksen is the evil boyfriend of her clueless, innocent mother, who sold his soul to the satanic forces nurturing her in a Faustian bargain for...a basketball coach position.Which leads to the early and highly memorable slo-mo basketball set-piece, easily one of the most unique choices of setting for a horror film sequence I've ever seen! The atmosphere of this weird, weird film alternates between genuinely and oddly poetic (mostly thanks to the music), pure B-movie cheese, and unintentional hilarity. It's one of the strangest films I've ever seen, but that's not a bad thing in this case. If you give yourself over to its strange charms, this is some kind of consciousness-expanding experience.Will you like it? There are folks who seek out these sorts of bizarre, unique B-movies. You know who you are. At the very least, you should this film an object of curiosity.Somehow, and for some reason, John Huston, Glenn Ford, Franco Nero (as Jesus Christ), Shelley Winters, Lance Henriksen, Sam Peckinpah, Mel Ferrer and Kareem Abdul-Jabbar are all in this movie.
