Familiar story and a tepid hero
“Transformations” is a science-fiction thriller whose inspiration is any number of low-budget 1950s sci-fi pictures and, more specifically, Ridley Scott’s “Alien.” In a galaxy far, far away, transport pilot Wolfgang “Wolf” Shadduck (Rex Smith, “The Pirates of Penzance”) locks in his destination, switches on auto pilot, and retires for the night. Awakening from a nightmare-filled slumber, Wolf finds himself in the hospital ward of a prison colony. His ship has crashed with its cargo intact. Soon, he finds himself afflicted with a mysterious disease that transforms him into a horrendous beast. Only the purity of the beautiful Miranda (Lisa Langlois, “Class of 1984”) stands between the deadly disease and the rest of mankind. Patrick Macnee (John Steed of TV’s “The Avengers”) appears as Father Christopher.<br /><br />Yes, “Beauty and the Beast” comes to mind, as does “The Wolf Man.” Because of the film’s small budget, visuals are relegated to hallways and a modest group of extras, so we never get the full picture of the prison planet. Miranda is an innocent born on the prison planet who looks to Wolf to educate her about what lies beyond. The awkward romantic angle covers similar ground to “Forbidden Planet” but lacks that movie’s wit and playfulness.<br /><br />The script, by Mitch Brian, draws upon better films in an attempt to create something new, but “Transformations” lacks enough dramatic tension to sustain our attention. Special effects are old-school, created by make-up and mechanics rather than CGI. Since we’ve grown accustomed to big-budget CGI razzle-dazzle, this movie almost looks quaint. Smith is a pretty lackluster hero. Though he has the looks, he never convinces as the unknown disease begins to take hold.<br /><br />Bonus extras on the Blu-ray release include audio commentary by director Jay Kamen, interview with star Lisa Langlois, and “When In Rome,” an interview with director Jay Kamen.
