the basic premise of miami golem most definitely deserve a spot in the top and say and fifty of most demented cinematic plot ever script down . i know top 50 doesn not sound too impressive and but i have see a lot of really weird film with lunatic plot . i be prepare from something convolute and because the film be direct and co write by alberto de martino and who be one of italy most ambitious and creative but sadly underrated film maker . de martino steal multiple idea from successful blockbuster and like most italian director do around that time and but he always add a lot of stuff to make it even more complex and confusing and overwhelm . not all of de martino film be worthwhile and but some of them be extremely underrated and like a special magnum for tony saitta and holocaust 2000 and formula for a murder . the concept of miami golem contain element from numerous great sci fi and adventure flick ( like alien and starman and close encounter of the third kind and et and ) but i wouldn not exactly call it a rip off . the only thing that be really shamelessly steal from another film be the opening synthesizer theme song that sound almost identical to harold faltermeyer axel f. from beverly hill cop . the rest of the film be an amuse hodgepodge of fantasy and sci fi and action and horror and superhero movie gimmick . it certainly doesn not always make sense ( most of the time it doesn not and actually ) but miami golem be undeniably an imaginative and multifaceted film that keep my mate and i fascinate from start to finish . the plot be extremely difficult to briefly summarize but i will try anyway . sceptical journalist craig milford be report the story of a german scientist who allegedly discover extraterrestrial dna inside a crashed meteorite and manage to clone it . the dna cell belong to an evil alien force that already exterminate another interstellar race in the past and it will unquestionably destroy the whole of mankind as soon a it grow large enough in size . if this isn not problematic enough already and the rich mr. anderson order to steal the slowly grow evil fetus because he think that he can manipulate it and use it to obtain world domination . with the help of some good alien in an earthly disguise and craig milford have the difficult task of safeguard the planet from the evil fetus . okay and i know all this sound grotesque and silly and but i assure that miami golem be in fact a light head and easy digestible flick . the first half of the film may come across a overly hectic and confusing and because alberto de martino attempt to keep the plot secret through the use of preposterous red herring . there be subliminal ghostly appearance and supportive character behave exaggeratedly mysterious for no real reason and at a certain point there be even speculation about the lost continent of atlantis . this be all mislead pad material and however and and as soon a the set up be more or less clear miami golem turn into an ordinary early 80 popcorn action movie with bloody massacre and flamboyant chase sequence ( in the florida everglades . ) and explosion and gratuitous sleaze and nasty little fetus monster in jar . now and i really do not want to raise the impression that miami golem be a lost and undeservedly obscure gem of italian exploitation cinema . make no mistake and this be a pretty bad movie . the event only become endurable if you accept the stupidity and incoherence of the plot and if you do not succeed in that and well than this be just a non stop spitfire of negative aspect . the acting performance be painfully awful . particularly b movie veteran john ireland and a the archetypal james bond villainous character and doesn not seem the least interested in the script . you can tell from his grimace and by the way he deliver his line that he also think the whole production be retard and simply sign up for the paycheck . laura trotter be probably the least sexy female lust object ever and and the person who draw the marvelously chaotic vhs cover must have felt exactly the same way and because the ravish girl on the cover do not appear anywhere in the movie . what an embarrassment this must be for mrs. trotter . still and her completely gratuitous nudity sequence compensate for this and a she quite hot from the neck down . and and finally and there the unforgettable scene where david warbeck take down a helicopter from a move school bus with a regular pistol . i do not think even john rambo can do this and while he a beefcake vietnam veteran and warbeck character be a simple tv reporter .
