Alien Predator - 1986

Look at the title to this and tell me it's not dirt cheap. Can you? I don't think so. It was also known as The Falling and Mutant 2.

Alien Predator is a two bit ripoff of Alien made shortly after it came out. With a tenth of the budget and a tenth of the talent, some random people made a small scale alien-ish film.

What do you do to ripoff Alien? With no money? Well, set it on Earth instead of in space and have the people be the scary creatures, because you have no budget for an Alien costume.

Yes, in this the people are given the alien spores and it causes them to go crazy and become killers. That is the plot, and three friends are in a town full of gestating aliens.

Alien Predator is extremely amateur, the kind that is so bad it's great, the kind that is also so bad it's really bad. This movie is extremely shitty in all the good and bad ways, except it doesn't have any of the nudity or fun parts that are usually required. That said I really still enjoyed it and I think it would be great for bad movie night.

What it comes down to in the end is you'll know exactly what you're getting into from the first few minutes, and if you like the first few minutes or if you chuckle, you'll enjoy the movie.
