Inseminoid

If there’s no budget for a monster, we’ll have a female astronaut raped to death by a monster. The attractive, always thoroughly made-up female members of the space-station crew and their charismatic colleagues act as if they are at a casting call for extras, and the suspense and action are laughable. Inseminoid is very bad sci-fi B-movie. (05/16/2021)

This is British B-movie director Norman J. Warren's attempt to rip-off the legendary movie Alien. Here, however, there was apparently not a big enough budget for the "alien", and so the space crew members are mowed down by their own stupidity. I mean, really, I haven't seen such a desperately inept ensemble of characters in a long time. The titular inseminoid does show up to prominently star in one filthy psychedelic sex scene, but it was nothing to write home about really. (05/17/2021)

The powerful thing about Inseminoid is that there's a combination of pregnancy and sex juxtaposed with violence and disgust. That makes it powerful and makes a statement. It's not exactly there for its own sake. The Brits have shown that they have what it takes to make a film that isn't a rip-off of Alien, that does its own thing, and is also quite good in terms of its special effects. That’s exactly what Inseminoid did. (03/22/2018)
