Rating:  - Good Movie; Bad Aspect Ratio
I really enjoyed this movie. It's not an epic, as it states on the cover, but it's entertaining, and at times genuinely suspensful. I felt like they made something pretty good with a low budget. Special effects were well done. The creature effects were pretty decent. And I'm still a fan of Weller. It's also nice to see Dan Obannon's name on a screenplay again.
I'm only disappointed I didn't notice the DVD was a 4x3 aspect ratio before I bought it. So I guess down the road I'll end ... Read More
Rating:  - Boy, what a stupid movie. Bottom of the barrel.
After watching Peter Weller [act] in this movie, I can only imagine him mopping filthy johns at a two-bit diner now. Because I sure as heck would never give him a starring role in a movie again. After seeing this turkey roast after the first 15 minutes. Peter Weller sucked rotten eggs.
The only reason(s) you'd watch this movie are: 1) Your Internet connection is down, 2) Your cable or satellite is out, 3) You don't have a date, 4) You've read all the best-sellers, 5) You're sick in bed, ... Read More
Rating: - Great adaptation
I have discovered Phillip K. Dick a few years ago and since then I have read and watched everything I can that has been written or inspired by him. This specific movie was shown on TV and was not launched on DVD in Brazil and I was very happy when I found it for sale here at Amazon. I did not grant 5 stars because the special effects have some defects, nothing to be desperate about but reduces the impact of the plot. Regardless that, the story is very good, having a nice and logic evolution, different ... Read More
Rating:  - A really poor sci-fi shaggy dog story
I really like Peter Weller, but this thing is a turkey. Well, not really a turkey, but a shaggy dog story. Part "Alien", part "Terminator", and part "Tremors", the film just plods along. Just as you can see the shaggy dog punch line far in advance of it at long last being said, we know things about these characters that are meant to be surprising and shocking, but never are.
The film is set on another planet that was a promising mining outpost. I never quite get the mining thing in space ... Read More
Rating: - Escape From The Planet of the Screamers
Not since "Planet of the Apes" have I seen a man so desperate to escape from a planet. "Screamers" is a futuristic film of science fiction horror starring Peter Weller; he has acted in a host of science fiction films such as "Robocop" and "Leviathan." In "Screamers," Peter Weller is Colonel Hendricksen who lives on a remote mining planet, Sirius 6B. He has learned that the tiny, multi-bladed robots (similar to the silver balls in "Phantasm"), living underground have begun replicating themselves and ... Read More
