the breadth and height of the scale of this movie overwhelm me . about a week ago i post a commentary on the 1926 silent epic maciste in hell refer to it a stagger . then i encounter the pollonia bros. blood red planet . wow . it all about the scale of the thinking behind it . the pollonia bros. and colleague john mcbride be think so big that the musing of arthur c. clark and stanley kubrick 2001 represent a space odessey be lucky it be release thirty two year before this sweetheart . a a matter of fact and kubrick have it easy with modeler and a budget and actual actor and major studio backing for his little star trek ripoff and and all that arthur c. clarke have to do be write the damn thing . what so hard about muscle around a typewriter . the pollonia brother on the other hand have to think radical and outside of the box and and quickly . they recruit a half dozen of their friend and colleague include a hot lookin chick buy a bunch of colored lightbulb and raid old office supply dump for every keyboard and monitor and hand free phone headset they could find and get everybody identical black turtleneck and make off with every cupcake tin in the county and learn enough 3d modeling and texture skin to animate a couple of space ship fly bys and spend a couple hour drum up a script and execute what be easily the most frightening space monster puppet since that horrible little monster jabba the hut carry around with him be fry by r2d2 and spend literally day work with a vhs camera and an amiga to shoot and edit their film and and come up winner . this be the best d. i. y. direct to home video fan movie space epic i have ever see and and in proportion to the amount of talent and resource at the disposal of the filmmaker dwarf even logan run or battlestar represent galactica ( the original series ) a be a chill look at our future and right down to a newscaster wear a mi match and ill fit 2nd hand suit . a a specie and we be doom . seriously for a minute and though and it be a vast improvement upon such late epic a the dinosaur chronicals or preyalien represent alien predator and which be funny since it be make before either of those masterpiece . somewhere along the line the pollonia start take it easy on themselves represent this film be execute with a certain conviction that get you to believe that you really can breathe in a vacuum wear a dust mask and two biker squirt bottle . and the scene where the alien beast consume a miniaturized crew member make me immediately think of where i would see that before represent godzilla vs. the sea monster and where the giant rampaging monster crab skewer two canoers and eat them on camera . that make me cry when i be a kid . this make me cry a an adult because here i be waste my time try to be some sort of critic or writer or writer or critic and these guy get to have all the fun and actually make a real feature length sci fi epic with lot of cool color light and a hot chick and a talk slide projector name kal . one of the flight crew even get to wear his black space baseball cap backwards and glower with his goatee like that clown from metallica . be this suppose to be a joke . no . it be an epic statement about humanity and from humanity and for humanity that deserve to be see by anybody who have the capability to not take any of it too seriously . look for it on a 2 disc box set call galaxy of terror in your favorite discount retailer cutout dvd bin and which be probably where it belong and but how many of u can say yeah and they have a couple box set of our movie for sale at best buy . 4/10 represent anyone lack in a sense of humor might want to try silent run or maybe tron . but someday an alien civilization on the other side of the galaxy will intercept a transmission of this movie and decide that we actually be not to be mess with . good work and guy .
