- Dustin GravesSeptember 16, 2026I was fascinated with this film as a kid who frequented Blockbuster every weekend to pick out a movie and a video game to rent. I picked this one weekend when I was about 9 years old, and as soon as the dancers started shaking their bare boobs in the beginning at the strip club, my mom refused to let me finish it. After that I'd always walk by the VHS box, staring and wondering. Now 33 years later, after finally watching the entire film—I'm a bit disappointed. Rutger Hauer is fantastic and the concept, costumes, and effects are all pretty good. The sets, vehicles, and creature design all leave much to be desired unfortunately. The villain just looks like a rejected draft for the xenomorph in Alien. Not to mention the poorly paced, boring second act. It didn't quite live up to my childhood hype, but I still had fun with it.
- DenimbeardSeptember 5, 2026The performances are rigid and cliche to the point of near satire, but the world it lives in feels alive and real.
- SaturnFoxDieMarch 14, 2026Still absolutely amazing flick, gritty, campy and hilarious .
- James KearneyFebruary 25, 2026A 90's cop buddy film about a serial killer that is not what he seems. This is referred to as a cult classic, I'm not sure about that 🤔.
- Patrick WaiDecember 20, 2025All-over-the-place 80s buddy / alien creature movie trying to be a little like Bladerunner but without the great cinematography. Sort of turned into an action comedy towards the end. Just no.
- Hot SaucermanNovember 27, 20252008 was a wild year apparently.
- jackmeatDecember 23, 2024My quick rating - 5,8/10. In a flooded future London, Detective Harley Stone (Rutger Hauer) hunts a serial killer who murdered his partner and has haunted him ever since. He soon discovers what he is hunting might not be human. Still not bad after all these years. Kind of a "Predator" type flick for lack of a whole synopsis. Big evil alien being hunted by the psycho cop below.
- David CondieOctober 19, 2025Loved it, brilliant
