The first one I saw was part 2, one of the most dreadful, cheaply made, abysmal and uninspired Alien rip-offs, and I just recently saw part 3, aptly subtitled "Watch the Skies" (which rings to me more like a suggestion: watching anything else instead would work a whole lot better). However, I was intrigued by the high rating on imdb for this one (5.6 for a horror movie is usually masterpiece status in my book), and the synopsis. I have to say this was nothing short of a revelation to me! This has to be the most outlandish, bizarre, surreal, gooey and creative monster film to ever come out of the UK! Very, very unlike it's cash-in, in-title-only-successors, this is not only pretty well done, but original, inspired, and even stylish (yes, there's a lot of work and heart put in the lighting, the special, make up and visual effects, the acting, the editing, the music, the art department, and even the shots are well-thought of and extremely creative ; it feels like everyone put the best they got on it). Even some of the lines would fit in most criteria for "classic" (especially the ones by Joe, the stepfather). The whole affair feels sort of what it would be like if Ken Russell had made a movie for Hammer if the company had caught up with the times back in the 80s (I think one of the reasons, among several, that the rest of the franchise fails way beyond miserably, is because just as the original wouldn't work outside a British context, so the prospect of any sequels). It does seem like it comes from Spielberg's Close Encounters and ET, but if that's so, it goes above and beyond being an exploitative take on those. Among many many other things, the whole Freudian angle and the "remotely controlled" toy element truly set this creature-feature-creature apart from the rest. Berenice Stagers is an icon of the horror genre in every right. She's played very similar roles in Macabre (Lamberto Bava), Hellraiser and Hellbound: Hellraiser II, which are also classics in my book, in almost equal measure. I read somewhere that she doesn't like the genre, which is almost impossible for me to believe. She's right up there with Barbara Steele and was born for it! Sad to learn about Philip Sayer, who did an outstanding job and had a really brooding presence, perfectly suited for his role. There's even some surprising and most welcome eye candy provided by Myriam D'Abo (one of the cutest Bond girls ever to walk the face of the planet and relative to the almost equally beautiful Olivia D'Abo from The Wonder Years) in her debut film.Even though this is an European release, it does play for me and is as much a labor of love as the movie itself. Most likely the film never looked or sounded as beautiful as it does this time. It's pretty packed with extras (the one I just watched was as long as a feature film, with interviews with Bromley-Davenport, Bernice Stagers, producer Mark Forstarter, Tik and Tok -whose contributions to the film are inconmensurable- , the excellent "get in the car" guy and even the lovely lady who pulled off the most excruciatingly painful delivery ever put on film. Davenport even explains what the panther is doing in this movie, which was a touch in much, much need of such explanation and, according to Davenport himself (I'm not quoting literally), was "expensive, unnecessary, and absolutely brilliant."This movie is truly age-defining (the stuff that makes the 80s so special and missed by us who grew up back then) and this release is beyond supreme. Forgot to mention. Never would've imagined Davenport, who looks like a really cool, down to earth guy, was an accomplished keyboardist and composer, too. The soundtrack for the movie is included on CD! There's also a booklet loaded with tons of info and, as they used to say where I grew up, "profusely illustrated!" ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars Upgrade of my old VHS *by J***E on Reviewed in the United States on April 4, 2024* This movie never looked so good. Cool features plus a new director's cut which I still need to check out! --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/131949887-xtro](https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/131949887-xtro) --- *Product available on Desertcart Great Britain* *Store origin: GB* *Last updated: 2026-04-27*
