this movie be literally all over the place . alien decide to invade earth by employ astro zombie which run around on a rampage and unconvincingly hack and slash people just sit around and basically wait to get kill . a woman reporter ( brinke stevens ) be on the scene and as well a her boyfriend who work for the cia ( and look about half her age ) and an fbi agent and plus there some crazy 70 plus joan collins look woman who insist on show mark on her breast ( aaaak . ) whenever she claim she be abduct by alien and then there some george carlin lookalike doctor who team up with a psychic or something and plus tura satana ( from the first astro zombie movie ) and her dimwit henchman who look like vincent donofrio from men in black who hope to cash in on the invasion . on top of this and there plenty of random scene of government official sit around a table say vaguely important thing and plus some doctor chillin in an e. r. and and john carradine head keep alive in a lab . with so many character and so much stuff go on and this movie be totally out of control . if i have any clue a to what be go on and i might have enjoy it in other way and but a it be this movie be purely for laugh . mikels certainly have improve his style since the 60 in that his newer film be much more briskly pace and more entertaining and and action pack ( he have a funny cameo which cleverly incorporate his early cameo ) . the special effect ( include some pretty decent cgi ) range from laughably terrible to surprisingly good . the acting and on the other hand and be all round abysmal with the sole exception of the only real actor in the movie and brinke stevens ( who look quite good in that short skirt of hers ) . the problem with the movie though be that it take itself too seriously when it obvious it benefit the most from the unintentional comedy . the scene of zombie run around various industrial area and hack people be totally hilarious indeed and but sandwich between too many random scene of talk head . the film then seem to randomly cut back and forth between the many subplots and and the same zombie keep wake up in the alien spaceship a total of about five time . even silly be how so much of the actor scream be obviously adr and so much clear than the regular dialog and which be often either muffle or render inaudible due to the constant loud music . only the scene involve satana seem to be intentionally funny . i do not know how to sum this one down it felt like i sit through 8 movie at once while bewilder and confuse and laughable and yet somehow very entertaining . it have a great beginning and end and and some scene in the middle and which be the best one can really expect for a movie obviously shot with no money but a lot of enthusiasm . much good than the first film and which be 88 minute of character stand around explain to each other how the astro zombie work and and 2 minute of killin . this one more like 20 minute of kill and 20 minute of alien and and 30 minute of character talk to each other and look confuse and then 15 minute of car drive around and various other random stuff . too bad mst3k miss out on this one it ten time funnier by itself than most of their good episode .
