8/10
Enjoyable B-grade sci-fi trash
20 April 2015
Warning: Spoilers
A ruthless and murderous alien (beefy Saulis Sipans) comes to Earth to hunt humans in health spas and strip clubs. Police detective Sully Sullivan (a likable performance by Eric Roberts) investigates.

Writer/director Kevin S. Tenney keeps the entertaining story moving along at a constant quick pace, offers a wealth of choice cheesy one-liners, stages the action scenes with stirring aplomb (there's a doozy of a set piece that blatantly copies the police station raid from "The Terminator"), and delivers a pleasing plethora of tasty gratuitous female nudity (special kudos here to slinky brunette Monika Verbutaile and especially busty blonde Egle Zakareviciute). The solid acting from the capable cast keeps this movie humming: Arnold Voslo as mysterious extraterrestrial cop Warden, John Rhys-Davies as pompous bumbling jerk Wyznowski, Tony Lo Bianco as huffy superior Captain Tanzini, James W. Quinn as Sully's sarcastic partner Phil Yamata, Al Sapienza as brainy forensics expert Medina, and Sarah Kaite Coughlan as Sully's foxy teacher wife Susan. Chris Manley's sharp cinematography boasts several funky POV shots. Harry Manfredini's robust score hits the rousing spot. Fun schlock.
