i think video store should create a new genre the sci fi or slasher flick . this one begin with a sci fi premise ( which suck people like me in ) and that move quickly to six to ten people isolate on some craft ( ship and spaceship and etc . ) and while some alien life form attempt to kill them all . the alien series be the classic of this genre very good . this follow event horizon down the ho hum ness of the whole thing and just throw some extra gore in and people will see it . by the end of the movie i do not even react to the character fear and i just await the inevitable . and there be some good actor in it . oh well and i be hop to get more out of the virus concept and but be rob of that a the movie swung rapidly out of sci fi and into slasher i should have know . skip it and rent alien again and or rent it and if you collect the genre . i give it a 2 out of respect for donald sutherland and jamie lee curtis ( what be they think . ) zsk .
