This crazy science fiction/horror hybrid is also known as Horror Planet.
Geeson is interplanetary scientist Sandy who has had the unfortunate dishonor of having been hideously raped by a vile monster beast from outer space.
Worse still, when Sandy starts getting the knack for some pretzels, barbecue sauce and ice cream at 3 in the morning, WATCH OUT!
Turns out the unassuming young gal is now with alien child...and unfortunately she's beyond bonkers too, as she sets about chopping up her colleagues and co-workers in gory fashion.
This low budget entry clearly owes a debt of influence to Ridley Scott's ALIEN. But thanks to director Warren, this variation on a theme has got its own unique mood and lays claim to a certain late-nite charm.
Geeson (from the creepy Spanish horror A Candle for the Devil et al) is always pleasant to see.
Director Warren also helmed the above average Terror (1978), and also the really weird Prey (1978).
