Not your conventional Sci-fi flix. What starts out as a twisted alien story, turns into a land of no rules or lodgic. There's a dwarf clown, an alive, life size G.I. Joe toy out to kill, and a black panther(?). Plus the anoying score was garbage. For bad movie lovers only.-Stone Was this review helpful? Yes

I enjoyed this movie. Nice creepiness, good gore and some head-tilting/questionable scenes. Reminds me of The Beast Within on a certain level. Check it out. Was this review helpful? Yes

Xtro, I believe, can be classified as a cult classic assuming that you use the word "classic" very loosely. The movie has an alien rape scene that is still shocking to this day. The special effects are crude, but effective. Aside from that, the movie is quite bad. Xtro develops schizophrenically: The plot is disjointed and the movie features an assortment of creatures ranging from a clown to a murderous G.I. Joe figure to a tiger. In the special features section, the director actually admits that he and his crew were making the movie up as they went along. It shows. Was this review helpful? Yes

This is not a standard gore monster thing. It was ok for a while, and then it seemed to drop some acid or something. I cannot say it is worth renting but it is an experience. I guess unless I missed it, the aliens seemed to have no reason for anything that happened in this oddball. In this case, I think that trying to be unconventional was not helpful to this one.

Movie started off with potential, but then slunked into mediocrity. Now we know where the Strauss Brothers got the idea for how the Predalien (yes you saw right) impregnates its victims, through the mouth. THe only thing disturbing about the alien rape scene was that is was so retarded, though what happened after was kinda sickening. Creepy yes, gory I've seen better/worse. Rent just to check it out, but be warned after about 20 minutes it just goes off somewhere, maybe to the Xtro home world. Was this review helpful? Yes

I can enjoy a "bad" horror/sci-fi movie unless they're as bad as this one. It's poorly put together, makes no sense, and with the exception of one or two somewhat graphic scenes, there's nothing to watch. Oh wait, there's a blond hottie that does have a pretty decent (but short) nude scene.
Nothing to see here, move along to the next movie.... Was this review helpful? Yes

Incredibly bad monster, horror, chiller theater!! (Note duel reference to Dan Aykroyd on SNL and a skit from Second City Television.) Watching the director talk about the movie is hilarious, though, because he even admits this was a bad movie. Was this review helpful? Yes
