Without Warning (1980)
3/5
EDIT
“The premise and execution are as basic as basic can be, but it makes up for it with the casting. A true b-film starring two Oscar winners is not something that you find every day. ” –

EDIT
“It follows the aesthetic of Alien and general vibe, except it has sex scenes end general female nudity, which was the style at the time, and a lot more dead West Germans.” –

Prometheus (2012)

4/5
EDIT
“Yeah, I love the film. It’s a big budget version of a stupid 80s alien-rip-off. That’s how I view it. It’s not canon, obviously. It’s a rip-off film like Galaxy of Terror but made by an immensely talented filmmaker (not storyteller). ” –

Python (2000)
3.5/5
EDIT
“Is it good? It’s a low budget TV flick from 2000 called Python. It doesn’t matter if it’s good. What matters is if its entertaining and of course it is. It’s a low budget TV flick from 2000 called Python, how could it not be?” –

“The film looks good, not just for a budget film but just in general. That’s of course a lot due to Cameron’s work on Galaxy of Terror but the new sets, practical effects and props look good, too. ” –
