Reviews:
“Given the fact the film has been cut by twenty minutes and given the kind of dubbing that will make anyone a fan of subtitles, I can’t speculate on the original’s plotting. But the version on display here is pure cheese and that’s what saved it for me. From scenes where the weather changes from shot to shot to an alien ship being brought down by flying gas cylinders, it’s full of WTF moments that kept me watching.” 2.5 out of 5, Voices from the Balcony
