I think the most surprising thing is that a monster movie like this could get made and released in 1989 because this type of film pretty much died out at the start of the decade when slashers arrived on the scene. An injured girl named Karen is brought back to civilization, but she quickly gives birth to the spawn of one of these creatures.

Lots of horror films exist about a post-apocalyptic future (though today they all seem to have zombies) and lots of horror films exist about a strange pregnancy. This one here takes place in a post-apocalypse world where a group of survivors live safely in a shelter. Moreover, there are also a few effectively harsh touches which include an attempted abortion that goes hideously awry and an extremely brutal monster rape set piece.There is really only one special feature on the DVD, a Feature Commentary by Fred Gallo the Director of Dead Space. Determining the reason behind it's attacks, the team scours the base for the creature and launches a plan to get rid of it before it is able to kill off the entire crew one-by-one.

The familiar plot sees a group of scientists, survivors of a plague that has all but wiped out humanity, finding a woman in the wilderness surrounding their underground lab complex.

A Roger Corman quickly produced cheapie that wears its influences proudly, as many elements (character descriptions to lifted sequence ideas) just reek of Ridley Scott's 1979 feature ''Alien''. However, the movie does so much cloning of "Alien" as to be somewhat groan inducing, right down to its creation of two comic relief characters (played by John Lafayette and Tommy Hinkley) clearly patterned after Parker and Brett from the '79 film.

This film starts out a bit too slow, but fortunately kicks into high gear and really starts cracking once the monster gets loose. Think Alien - as this movie quickly moves to rip that off, a switcheroo when you were expecting Mad Max.
