alien hunter represent 5 out of 10 represent be it me or do every movie that start in roswell and new mexico suck . take alien mixed with the thing and mixed with contact and mixed with of all thing on the beach and the andromeda strain and the classroom scene from raider of the lose ark and a throw in a little stargate to boot . derivative doesn not even begin to describe this movie . of course with nothing original plot wise they amp up the gore and sex right . nope gore be a blink and you miss it affair and sex be all tease . ( james spader causally mention he need a shower and the delectable leslie stefanson ask to join him . he turn her down . aggh . ) in fact if a movie ever need a shower scene to liven thing up this be it . i mean if your go to have impossibly good look woman in white bathing suit wander around an antarctica research base why not go for broke . with about 30 second of actual thrill in the entire movie alien hunter be remarkable serious and slow go for a sci fi adventure . need a much good plot twist to liven it up and by the way the alien itself be a horribly clichéd artifice and have virtually no screen time for someone who share half the title . i also inquire during view what be with the child of the corn in space motif . ( note that since jason of friday the 13th fame and pinhead from hellraiser and that leprechaun have all travel to space to slay nubile teenager why not the cornfield . ) the character in the cornfield dress like logan run extra and i be just wait for the stalk to come alive and attack them . that however would have be excite and apparently against this movie covenant . the acting be mostly fine a spader reprise his stargate role while stefanson and janine eser model the late in antarctic beachwear . john lynch however read the whole script and act the like the insane bad guy well before the story would indicate it . alien hunter be a disappointing derivative slog that make me pine for a proper child of the corn in space movie .
